You must have missed the "Carve your initials in your wooden Colt handles" requirement there in the lawbookssteve817 wrote:In the article it says "4. The gun also must be in your name". If there is no gun registration in the state, how can the gun be in your name?
Short Answer: Yes, unless she failed any of the real 4 criteria specified in the MPA.SpringerFan wrote:So my wife carrying a LCP that is in my name when she travels in her car is OK then? She does not have her CHL yet.

Hmm Jim. I don't know what shows your watching. But the security video on the shows I watch is always too grainy to see who the suspect is. That's why they send the video the nerdy guys in the backroom who, using alien technology, somehow manage to sharpen the image by adding information that could not possibly have been captured by the camera.jimlongley wrote:And the unlimited pixel resolution they get with parking lot security cameras.

Law was refined in 2008 to define traveling as moving from one location to another reguardless of distance.Purplehood wrote:This article implies that the MPA applies when travelling.
They actually can do that. Perhaps not to the degree that TV does, but the technology is real.terryg wrote:Hmm Jim. I don't know what shows your watching.

TV continues to propogate the myth that guns are registered in all but the most restrictive loacles in the country. One of my favorite shows is NCIS, but it drives me insane when they talk about someone living in Virginia and automatically the gun is in some mythical registration database. And, pre Heller, they were acting like people in DC had guns registered to them, too. The whole reason Heller happened is because DC was refusing registrations.

They can see around corners, too.
