Effective safety regulations are already in effect in 49 states, and hopefully Illinois one day,
While technically correct, de jure not de facto, you can in effect remove NY, NJ, CA, HI, RI, MD, DE, & MA from those 49.
It is nearly impossible to obtain a CHL in those 8 states. That brings down the effective list to 41 states.

Been carrying in several different ways since 1978 both as a LEO and a Civilian. I have unholstered 4 times that I recall. I have had to fire zero times. I have not even had to "cover" a BG yet. And I emphasize the YET on all possible actions. Hopefully when I am no long on this mortal soil, it will still be YET.
