If you own or carry a gun regularly, it’s important that you know your gun laws and your rights. 44 states have a constitutional provision protecting the right to keep and bear arms. However, many state laws are different by state and you also need to consider federal gun laws as well. This infographic below reviews those laws. We hope you enjoy it.

Your data for NY is based on NYC (Manhatten, Long Island, Staten Island, etc.). Upstate is a totally different ball of wax. It usually takes 6-8 months, sometimes longer, for your paperwork to get signed by the Judge. However, as long as you have a clean record, applications for CC are generally approved.
Great Feedback! Thanks Mark.
We need one federal law for all states, that can not and will not be altered be any state. Thank you John.
Too dangerous. We’d be one executive order away from all losing our 2nd Amendment rights one day. At least now you can move if your state voters elect a pro gun control idiot. Maybe we the people need to be more assertive and try to get the 2nd Amendment more permanent and unalterable by the politicians at any level of government. The founding fathers knew this would be the most important check and balance against government abuse of its citizens. It’s what made the American Revolution possible. Pity there is critical mass of stupid people in so many states who don’t understand the importance of this and place their fellow citizens at a disadvantage to both bad government and criminals who won’t obey gun control laws anyway.
I’m English we cannot carry guns in my country( thank god) you all seem to think it’s right to do so. You have children going into schools and shooting each other or folk shooting folk cos they have upset each other can’t you see how stupid you all are
Linda Rush , Stick to the politics of your country. We Americans don’t try and tell you how your country should be ran. I do believe we had a war over this way of thinking.
Makes me sick, here in the UK our government fired from the hip and withdrew all ownership of pistols in England, Wales and Scotland because of one nasty incident at a School in Scotland, you can’t legislate for someone going insane but to withdraw all licenses for ownership of hand guns for all was ridiculous, talk about panic !!
Good luck to our American cousins as laws for gun ownership is once again investigated !!

One last question: IN OHIO, IT LISTS VAGUE REQUIREMENTS. Could someone tell me those requirements are for carrying concealed weapon, please.
Linda rush us Americans have a constitutional right to have our weapons to protect ourselves from a rogue government and criminals. As for the shootings the crooks will always get Guns how many criminals have you seen obey the law you can keep you gun laws over the pond and your opinion too.
Idaho citizens may now conceal carry without a permit
How updated is this? Missouri has constitutional conceal and carry as do Kansas.
To Linda Rush after hearing all the crap “murder, rape, stabbings” that is going on in your country and surrounding countries you are really going to try and defend that way of thinking! Who sounds STUPID NOW! We rule our country why do you think we have less attacks then ya’ll do. Maybe because we shot back!!!
DO NOT RELY ON THIS INFORMATION. Unfortunately there is much wrong here. In my home state of Maine this is the law: “Effective October 15, 2015, Public Law 2015, Chapter 327 (LD 652), “An Act To Authorize the Carrying of Concealed Handguns without a Permit,” allows a person who is not otherwise prohibited from possessing a firearm to carry a concealed handgun in the State of Maine without a permit. This law also authorizes a person to possess a loaded pistol or revolver while in a motor vehicle, trailer or other vehicle being hauled by a motor vehicle.”
Just wanted to know i work with a armoured company which requires me to carry a fire arm wich i have been doing for the past 9 months but when i went to purchase a new gun for myself i was denied my back ground check is good but when i ask the dealer they were unable to tell me why. Can anybody tell me how I can rectify this situation
This is one of the best things I’ve seen in a long time for concealed carry handgun laws.
Can I get my rights back 1 felony selling marijuana ain’t been in any other in 20 yrs
VA disability compensation payments are reduced if a Veteran is convicted of a felony and imprisoned for more than 60 days. Veterans rated 20 percent or more are limited to the 10 percent disability rate. For a Veteran whose disability rating is 10 percent, the payment is reduced by one-half.
When there is a bombing, we blame the bomber.
When there’s a drunk driving accident, we blame the driver.
WHY, when there’s a shooting do we blame the gun??
Cain killed Abel with a rock.
It’s a heart problem, NOT a gun problem.
