Bearcreek, of course laws are not always enforced. However, as Frank stated in his post, we are just discussing about what the laws are as written and how they could be enforced if law enforcement so wishes to do so. As far as me, I don't really like gambling and try to be as law abiding as I...

Oddly, quite a few, including my home state of Oregon.. Not sure if the liberals changed the laws since I left home.. Idaho is in a grey area there. It is not illegal to conceal carry a gun and drink, but if an officer doesn't like you been drinking you are in trouble. THat may have more to...

I don't live in Montana, but have thought about living there for years. Well, I'm in Tennessee and I was looking at possibly a move back out West and considering Montana. I would look at living around Billings, Helena, Livingston or Kalispell area if I was to live there. I love the mountains...

I appreciate the discussion going on .. Sorry, been away from the forum a bit.. Dang it, it appears all my worst fears about CCW laws in Montana are true.. And, yeah, having a law where it is illegal to exercise your 2nd Amendment rights because other people around you are drinking could be a...

https://leg.mt.gov/bills/mca/title_0450/chapter_0080/part_0030/section_0280/0450-0080-0030-0280.html I have been reading that the Montana Legislature passed a bill allowing people to conceal carry in restaurants where alcohol is served (most likely if they are not drinking) back in 2017. I know...

Oh crap.. Well, I guess I will have to take the course.. If I can take it sooner than later I will. However, I am not sure if I will have the money and time to be honest, so if my current CHLs will be valid that will be a convenience for the next year as I survive this craziness.. Once my life...

BearCreek, Well, thankfully both of my certificates are within 3 years and my TN one I just acquired. My only fear from reading the requirements is this 2 hours of range time. How does that translate to range time that qualifies you at 5, 10 and 15 ft like I had to do with NC & TN tests? Will...

Wow, that is a great news breakcreek! That would be so wonderful if I don't have to take another one of those courses and could just use the certificates I have. Ugh.. I mean if I have no choice, but if I can use my certificates then I will be golden. I will have to go and figure out who is...

George, this is not solely about CCW. Although, I wont live in any place that doesn't respect the 2A and has crappy gun laws. Yeah, I am unemployed and desperate for work. I've been an application software developer for many years and looking to transform myself into a back-end web...

Wow, thanks so much for these responses, they have been very helpful.. I definitely have more research to do but people here have definitely educated me more.. I will definitely review the AG website and that is usually my ultimate source of knowledge ,assuming the site is laid out easy enough...

I lost my business due to Covid and now will be leaving Nashville, TN because it has become too expensive for me to live. I'm looking at headed over to the Buckeye state and very likely could relocate to the Columbus, OH area with the hope of finding a new job and more affordable living on my...

I use to love the city of Portland a lot, especially when I lived there in the 90s. It was very live and let live. Even many of the hippies I knew had guns and like to go hunt and had a very outdoorsy vibe. Now, the city is just a lost cause and most of the people who live there are not even...

Northern KY? Actually, you are my neighbor and not too far Elkins.. I even have my own safe I can bring with me.. BUt, I love my guns a lot and will see what I can do not to have to store them away.. I appreciate those though who would be willing to help me out there.. I hate to burden any...

RIchmond seriously needs to hand over NoVA to District of Columbia and allow it to become one state.. It would work out better for both places. Nova is essentially Southern DC and shouldn't control Virginia's politics, culture and way of life. At this point, with my own home state, I wish...

Sounds like there are many different ways to keep your guns preserved.. Maybe, I should have just left my guns in Colorado where the humidity is so low its never an issue.. LOL.. If I have to end up storing them I will definitely be reviewing the different posts here.. I got plenty of CLP...

My home state of Oregon deteriorated much the same way as I am seeing in Virginia. When one super liberal city full of transplants who hate the state they moved to , but enjoy more business friendly environment, lower taxes, lower crime, etc then suddenly want to vote out the locals and...

Sounds like you have a very intriguing background boomboom and I am sure I can have some interesting conversations about this. Developing a spreadsheet program sounds like quite a feat , especially back in the day with the limited development tools and resources on the devices you had to...

Wow, cool to meet an old school programmer like you Boom Boom. You sound like you go a bit farther back than even me. I start programming in QuickBasic in the 80s (as a kid) and started my software career programming VB6 and VC++. Well, I could go into a long discussion about IDEs and...

Thanks for the suggestions boomboom.. I am pretty heavily invested in my software career and currently trying to shift from many years as a desktop developer to a full-stack web developer; but, if for some reason, I just cannot get work in this field anymore or my disabilities limit me from...

I really appreciate the advice people are giving me here. I'm hanging on by a thread to my life and career as I have known it and trying to keep my head above water. I will do all in my power to not have to store my guns, but I have to prepare for the worst scenario. I will definitely be...
