Which states don't require prints?

Minnesota

[Timothy]

Prints are not required in NH or ME for an out of state license.  MA requires for everyone as does CT.  Still trying to get information on RI, that might be a tough one for me.

In MA, CT and ME, even a suspected domestic squabble where the cops are brought in, without even being arrested can cost you your CC license.

No prints required in Iowa, either.  Just the training and the anal probe.

But you deserve it

I'm surprised at the number that don't require prints.
AZ used to require even for renewal, as if they could change a whole bunch. You might have added a scar or three but the basic print isn't going anywhere soon.

Ga used to require it for the initial permit but not for renewal (except for the print on the actual license). I got printed 20+ years ago and had not had to do it again until last year. They went to electronic scans and I had to be reprinted at city hall. Do not know if it will have to be done each time from now on or not.

I hear north Georgia and in the larger cities that it can be a pain to get the paperwork done on time, but in rural areas like mine it is pretty much a breeze. Ga just made a few changes to the laws last year to speed up the process. My last renewal took a little longer because I had to leave the Probate Court to go to city hall for the printing......and the cost of the GBI background fee went up. Total cost was nudging $70 and and hour and a half of time.....Got the license in the mail in 6 days.

look, my point is, why should we treat some one diffrent becuase they jumped thru a few more hoops?

not all states have extensive back ground checks, some its litterly pay the fee and wait for them to process the paper work.

I just think its a joke that you one person has to pass a back ground check every time they buy and gun and another can use a background check from years ago.

Now I know we should not have to have background checks, but guess what, they are here to stay.  I'm a firm beleaver that guns should be cash and carry, but the public will not stand for that.  the whole waiting thing is BS, make the call and give them the gun.

You mean CA will not stand for that. I have never had to wait for a gun, even before I had a CCW. I walked in, they made the call, and I walked out with a new toy.

That is the nice thing about living in a Republic!  We have a Constitution and we have three branches of government.  While we elect two out of three of the branches democratically, all three branches are charged with protecting and leading us based on the Constitution.  However, we have perverted the system from both sides, and all three branches have become nothing more than job candidates protecting their own turf.

Legislating and policy setting is not about poll data or electability.  Legislating and policy setting is about taking today's needs and protecting citizens Rights while not destroying the country we were gifted by so many that gave so much.

TAB, you keep asking why someone who jumps through "a few more hoops" should be given special treatment.  Please explain to me why someone should be required to "jump thru a few more hoops" to exercise their Constitutionally protected Rights.

You answer your own question

no I mean nation wide, people generally support back ground checks.  Back ground checks are not going to go away. so it should go in, drop your cash on the counter, they make the call, walk out.


so tom explain to me how its logical to use a back ground check from 2 years ago.  when every one else needs to have a back ground check done when they buy.  If you walk back into the store 2 mins after the last one, you still need to be back ground check.

CCW, can be political... locally there were a few people that were friends of the sheriff.  only they could not legally own guns.  Corruption is a world wide deal...
