Constitutional Carry on the March in Oklahoma with New Governor

https://www.ammoland.com/2018/12/co...-in-oklahoma-with-new-governor/#axzz5eKeNaXyL

On September 4, 2018, governor candidate Kevin Stitt said he would sign a Constitutional Carry bill. From news9.com:

“I would sign it. I am a constitutional conservative. I support the first amendment, the second amendment and I think the best defense for a bad guy with a gun, is a good guy with a gun,” said Stitt.

Kevin Stitt, the Republican candidate, was elected on 6 November 2018, with over 54% of the vote.

The results of the 2018 elections leave Republicans with super majorities in both houses in Oklahoma. In the Senate, Republicans have 39 of 48 seats. In the House, Republicans have 76 of 101 seats.

Looks like we'll be able to enjoy another victory this year. :thumbsup:

I hope so a victory. The state of Oklahoma is a complete opposite of pathetic Maryland.

Permitless carry gun bill sails through Oklahoma committee

http://www.mankatofreepress.com/reg...cle_a53e76bb-317b-5c10-9a54-3d7a2794d64f.html

Dubbed "constitutional carry" by its supporters, the measure easily cleared its first legislative hurdle Thursday when a House committee approved it on a 9-2 vote. The measure now advances to the full House. A similar bill has been introduced in the Senate.

This would be so much better than reciprocity. Just recognize every citizen's right to carry and stop taxing people to put a jacket on over your firearm.

"Well, in the first place an armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life. For me, politeness is a sine qua non of civilization. That’s a personal evaluation only. But gunfighting has a strong biological use. We do not have enough things to kill off the weak and the stupid these days. But to stay alive as an armed citizen a man has to be either quick with his wits or with his hands, preferably both. It’s a good thing."

This has passed the House Committee and going for full House vote.

looks like out of staters will required a permit from their home state. (unless their home state is constitutional carry, or maybe OC)

The bill approved by the committee on Thursday would allow most Oklahomans 21 and older to carry concealed or unconcealed without a license. Exceptions would include anyone in the country illegally or those convicted of certain crimes. Firearms would still be prohibited in certain locations, including public buildings, schools, professional sporting events and casinos.

Oklahoma also has a reciprocal agreement law that allows people from other states to carry a handgun in Oklahoma if they're authorized to do so in their home state.

tried to get to the text in the first link, but was unable. (i have some stuff disabled on my browser. maybe that's why.) maybe i am mistaken.

I think this covers non-residents as well. It references "persons" and not "residents" https://scholar.google.com/scholar_...7363&q="bear+arms"&hl=en&scisbd=2&as_sdt=6,49

Permitless carry bill passes Oklahoma House

https://kfor.com/2019/02/13/permitless-carry-bill-passes-oklahoma-house/

OKLAHOMA CITY — A bill allowing for permitless carry in Oklahoma has passed the House floor.

House Bill 2597 passed the Oklahoma House on Wednesday afternoon by a vote of 70 to 30. If signed into law, it would allow Oklahoma residents to carry firearms without a permit, background checks, or training so long as they met legal requirements and were over 21-years-old or 18-years-old for veterans.

“This bill deals with the lawful carrying of a firearm by restoring the second amendment right to a peaceful law abiding citizen that should not have been taken away,” said Rep. Kevin West, R-Moore.

The bill now heads to the Senate for consideration. Senate Bill 12, which is the Senate’s version of a similar bill, has been assigned to the Public Safety committee.

It seems that pretty soon every state will be constitutional carry or no carry.

Maryland will hold out to the bitter end.
