one question i was asked, is if its passed will we still be able to get licensed to carry plastic or will they just fall off as they expire?

the question came up, as it relates to buying a firearm, if you have a current LTC the buying process is fast. If not then the whole NCIC phone call time lost event happens.

thanks

With the proposed legislation, the LTC (plastic) would remain optional. You may still maintain it and renew is for reciprocity and the ability to skip a background check from a FFL.

HB 1238 is currently up in Homeland Security and Public Safety committee.

To support the constitution carry bills, try to focus on making the point that a license should not be necessary. Simply stating that "it's your right" or giving the reason you acquired an LTC isn't going to persuade those who want to maintain the status quo. These bills are designed to remove the licensing requirement. Your comments should reinforce that position.
