Arizona has introduced a Constitutional Carry Bill in the Senate, SB 1270. Full details & links below:

If you live in Arizona contact your Senator & Representatives to ask that they support this bill!

That's great news. Whether it gets the support needed or not, it's nice to see things like this getting some notice (by politicians specifically).

I also like (presumably) Dustin's terminology; "Constitutional Carry". I think it's even better than "Second Amendment Carry".

The other benefit of having a CCW, of course, is the ability to buy a gun without having to wait for them to get the OK from DPS.

According to the article, you could still get a permit if you wished, such as for purposes of interstate carry and the background check skipping.

Thats great... I hope it passes. Perhaps it will catch on in other places.

I have a UT CCW, and it really gets me steamed that I have to get permission from the State to exercise my rights.

So far I haven't seen anyone say they've actually contacted their AZ state representatives :( All the wishful thinking in the world won't/can't take the place of personally calling your representatives and asking them to support a specific, and very very good bill such as this one.

Hopefully this is the next trend. First CCW spread like widlfire, and maybe this will be next. I think that as crime and uncertainty rise due to tough economics, it might really happen.
