So how long it take for this to become law?

Gotta wait for Trump to be sworn in. Obama would veto it.
All prior iterations of national reciprocity bills included that an out-of-state permit must be treated as the least-restricted permit available in the visited state.
NYC would have to ban all carry or make NYC permits so useless that everyone would resort to hiring off-duty cops for protection before someone with a PA license could be prohibited from carrying in Times Square.
Hollow Points are not banned in NJ. Strictly regulated. But not banned.

NJ for example... Has a ban on Hollow point. An explicit exception was made for leosa. Are you saying that the NJ hollow point ban would be moot?
Banned for carry. You can own but not use in a carry gun... At least that's what my contacts tell me.
I was never a gun owner in NJ or NYC.
If it holds then it gets very interesting..
I agree. But I see a 10A challenge from Frosh or other May Issue states.almost immediately.
But it will be fun to watch the AG's and the heads at the MSP LD explode.
Friends,
I just had a back-and-forth with Kerry Picket of the Daily Caller. Here is a link to the newly revised bill:
https://hudson.house.gov/uploads/Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017.pdf
The new bill deletes the line that would have limited the reciprocal right to carry to non-residents.
a) Notwithstanding any provision of the law of any
9 State or political subdivision thereof (except as provided
10 in subsection (b)) and subject only to the requirements
11 of this section, a person who is not prohibited by Federal
12 law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving
13 a firearm, who is carrying a valid identification document
14 containing a photograph of the person, and who is car
15rying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant
16 to the law of a State and which permits the person to
17 carry a concealed firearm or is entitled to carry a con
18 cealed firearm in the State in which the person resides,
19 may possess or carry a concealed handgun (other than a
20 machinegun or destructive device) that has been shipped
21 or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, in any
22 State that—
‘‘(1) has a statute under which residents of the
24 State may apply for a license or permit to carry a
25 concealed firearm; or
‘‘(2) does not prohibit the carrying of concealed
2 firearms by residents of the State for lawful pur
3poses.
This from Kerry of the Daily Caller:
I updated my first piece to address this issue. A congressional source told me this: "an individual from one of those states may obtain a non-resident CCP from a state that recognizes the right to carry. All CCP holders (whether resident or non-resident) still have to abide by all the laws of the state in which they are carrying concealed."
Here is a pull from her new story, posted today:
This would mean that even law abiding individuals who are residents in tough restrictive gun law states like Maryland, California, and New York, for example, can use a non-resident concealed carry permit from another state, like Utah, to conceal carry in their own state.
I am in New Jersey. If this language survives the bill's arduous journey, you folks in Maryland and myself in New Jersey will finally be able to carry in our own state.
