We’ve had some feedback on our post last night covering the December 29th email from Gun Owners Foundation Executive VP John Velleco.
In short, repeating: You can’t join a gun rights organization and expect that membership card will entitle you to legally carry from sea to shining sea.
And yes, his email post was up on the GOA website as an alert to members too.
I think the charitable interpretation of his email is that those legal victories allow gun owners (and GOF members) eligibility to apply for a carry license in NY and California. Whether or not your application will be approved once you jump through all the regulatory hurdles is entirely another matter. And if you think Illinois’ license is difficult to obtain, well, you ain’t seen nothing yet until you’ve navigated Florida and California’s application process in the more rabidly anti-gun locales.
