Absolutely right. What's more, even if it were quite permissive at first, it would be child's play to add onerous restrictions as time went on. There would be some element of federal registration, either of the gun or the owner.There is no way that I will support a federal CCW that will be administered at the whim of federal politicians. Any such permit would be much more restrictive than the state permit I have now!

However, I would and do support legislation that forces states to recognize other states' CHLs by requiring they observe and enforce the "Full Faith and Credit" clause of the Constitution just like they do with any other license or legal document.
so if your a resident in another state and lets say your passing through a different state you cant have your side arm?
They just tried it a couple of months ago. It was a rider called the Thune Amendment. It was narrowly defeated. Didn't have any crazy restrictions. All it said was that if you are a state that offers CCW, you must recognize licenses from other states. Essentially, forced reciprocity for the 48 states that offer CCW, sans Illinois and Wisconsin. CCW licenses would have been given the same treatment as drivers licenses and marriage certificates.

A uniform law. such as the UCC,may not be a bd idea. It would keep the federal govt out of this issue ...
