This must happen. Currently I conceal carry 2nd amendment style with no permit. If you need a permit you ain't free. 2nd says I get to bear my arms anyway I want without interference, so I do. Practice the 2nd, don't wait for permission.
I've had conceal permits from 3 other states and I'm retired LE but don't want the federal permit offered to retirees.
