Trump is definitely pro-gun and it's because of his gun-owning sons. What we can get passed in Congress is uncertain, but national reciprocity is a primary goal. Removal of suppressors as NFA items is certainly a possibility, as is the removal of SBR's. The latter is a stretch.

Oh yeah, Johnson has no chance of winning, nor to I want him to win.

<soapbox on> I don't see how it is unconstitutional for a state to not recognize a marriage license issued by another state (gay marriage), yet it is entirely constitutional for a state to not recognize a LTC issued by another state. <soapbox off>
Because not all states issue handgun licenses and not all those who do are "shall issue" some are "may issue".
It's not Constitutionally required for all states to recognize each others' drivers licenses, they just do. Just like lawyers & doctors & plumbers and A/C techs often have to license in each state. A marriage, OTH is "a public act" of a State and must be recognized by other states.


You don't get unmarried when you move to another State, but Texas can't grant you a LTC in New York. Congress can force NY to recognize your Texas LTC, but they haven't...
SECTION. 1.
Full Faith and Credit shall be given in each State to the
public Acts, Records, and judicial Proceedings of every other
State. And the Congress may by general Laws prescribe
the Manner in which such Acts, Records and Proceedings
shall be proved, and the Effect thereof.
