handgunlaw.us is a great resource of information regarding carrying a handgun for self defense owned by Steve Aikens and Gary Slider.  The site includes laws arranged by state, off limits places, non-resident permits, car carry information and a reciprocity map.  The site has a great feature that lets you select which state permits you have and builds a map of what states honor your permits.  It’s a good place to look for information especially if you plan to travel with your handgun.  Although the site is kept up to date, be sure to verify the information on  your own.

Great News for firearms owners and enthusiasts everywhere. The on-going supreme court case of DC vs Heller has come to a close and the DC handgun ban has been declared unconstitutional. This is great news for handgun owners everywhere. Hopefully we’ll see the effects of this up in NY with handgun permits, and maybe the removal of the Assault Weapons Ban (yeah right, I can dream).
