Here in NH....me and my buds had to stand in front of the locked beer cooler until 6AM to legally buy before we went ice fishing. We got smart ...and now buy it the night before...so that we can be on the ice soonah.

Texas finally amended this but in prior years if you wanted a CCP you could qualify with a pistol and carry either a revolver or a pistol. If you qualified with a revolver, that is all you could carry.
I thought that was plenty dumb but then I hear about no hunting on a Sunday and then here recently no starting a leaf blower on a Sunday.
What can you add to the countries dumbest laws or regs contest? Let's have em boys! NM ccw requires to qualify with a caliber you plan to carry or smaller. You can qualify with either and or pistol or revolver but if qualify with one you can't carry the other instead. Example; if you qualify with a glock 19 only then you can't carry a 1911 or a revolver. Another one, you can't carry in a restaurant that serves beer and liquor which alcohol sales are over 60% of their revenue

The only state in the Union outside of Hawaii that doesn't allow some meaningful form of non-resident trapping Plus California although it is a socialist foreign country.

I would be fine if people had the right to fly through windshields if the rest of us didn't have to pick up the tab. But I have to admit that the seatbelt law made me finally start wearing one 30+ years ago.
Not the first time I have heard that argument to support seat belt laws but how does someone flying through a windshield cost the rest of us more money than say, growing old and wasting away for decades on social security and medicare? A 25 year old quadriplegic on disability and medicaid will cost society a lot more than a retired person with 10 to 20 years left. And, that 25 year old didn't pay into the social security scam as long. Plus, flying through the windshield is statistically preventable. Getting old is inevitable. Take away the taxpayer's obligation to fund it and everyone can go Evel Knievel as far as I'm concerned.

Pistol permits.
Only thing we can snare is beavers. I also don't get the reg for shock springs on almost everything from DPs cabled to a tree to water sets

Florida's law is actually building code in most states, I believe.
