WV passes pro-2A laws Update 4/28 Sanctuary State SIGNED!!
First exempts firearms & ammunition from sales & use taxes.
Second creates a nonresident concealed carry permit.
Both take effect in 90 days.
Pending signature is a bill that prohibits the state, government officials and agencies, or local governments, from restricting the lawful carrying, sale, or use of firearms and ammunition during states of emergency and also prevents them from closing gun stores and shooting ranges, unless that restriction applies equally to all businesses.This message has been edited.

That is significant. I don't know of any other state (that has sales tax) doing this.

TULSA, Okla. (KTUL) — Oklahoma's governor, Kevin Stitt, has vowed to protect the state's way of life after President Joe Biden announced new gun control measures.
In an interview with Fox Business' Neil Cavuto, Stitt talked about defending 2nd Amendment rights from federal overreach.
"We're going to defend our right to bear arms in the state of Oklahoma," Stitt said.
Less than a day after a mass shooting in South Carolina, President Joe Biden has announced six executive actions to address gun control, including "red flag" legislation for states and evidence-based community violence interventions.
Within 60 days, the Justice Department will issue proposed rules to limit accessibility to "ghost guns" and will tighten regulations on the type of stabilizing braces for pistols used in a shooting last month in Colorado that left 10 people dead.
Governor Stitt called Biden's plans to curb gun violence, "a total overreach by the federal government."
The governor further described the president's executive measures as a 'scheme.'
"'Their ultimate goal is to try to influence power, and try to take rights away from citizens," Stitt said. "In Oklahoma, we believe in freedoms and personal responsibility."
Stitt said it was 'disappointing' this happening in D.C., and accused the president of displaying partisanship.
"As long as I'm governor," Stitt said. "We will fight back against that federal overreach."

Living up to the State motto. "Montani Semper Liberi"
I've got to check out the details on the non-resident permit

How in the hell can two states so close together, VA and West VA, be so freaking far apart when it comes to gun laws??

Their differences are why there are 2 states in the first place.

Bravo West Virginia. A beautiful state with a good head on its shoulders. Well done lads. Why can’t my beloved Old Dominion act in such a manner? They are trying to make people give up guns in favor of legal weed it seems.
