Gary SliderMontana Preemption. . . Tribal Gun Laws. . . Massad Ayoob
Montana – Effective 1/1/21 Voters passed 2nd Amendment Protection when it comes to Preemption. Local Government did have the ability to ban Concealed Carry in their buildings etc. They passed a bill to change that but for reasons I don’t understand it went to the voters to approve it. They did on election day passing LR-130 which you can read and see the changes at the link below.
https://sosmt.gov/wp-content/uploads/LR-130.pdfI have completed a major review and update of the Tribal Gun Laws Document. I have made numerous updates to some of the entries and finding that a few Tribes have made new websites and haven’t put their ordinances back online as of today. There were too many entries updated to list them all as I usually do at the bottom of each document. The file was getting to big so I have also broken it into 2 parts. There is a link at the top and bottom of each document to the other part. The Link at Handgunlaw.us will take you to the first part which will then have a link to take you to the 2nd part.
https://www.handgunlaw.us/docu...s/tribal_law_ccw.pdfTooting Handgunlaw.us horn with this article written by Massad Ayoob titled, “Concealed Carry And Traveling Armed.” He wrote it for Guns Digest for their November 2017 Issue. It is a good read on why you should know the laws before you travel and gives a very valid point on how things change and can get you in deep trouble. He has always recommended Handgunlaw.us as the go to site for up to date information. I have to say I might be bias a little, well maybe a lot on that point.
https://gundigest.com/handguns...arry-traveling-armedThings are kind of slow right now on law changes. With the way things are going it looks like 2021 and onward my be a lot different than the last 4 years. Let us hope not! Handgunlaw.us wants to wish each and every one of you a “Very Merry Christmas!”
