It seems Ralph (coonman) Northam wants to make changes to the gun laws in Virginia.
Coonman Proposes -
Legislation requiring background checks on all firearms sales and transactions. The bill mandates that any person selling, renting, trading, or transferring a firearm must first obtain the results of a background check before completing the transaction.
Legislation banning dangerous weapons. This will include bans on assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, bump stocks and silencers.
Legislation to reinstate Virginia’s successful law allowing only one handgun purchase within a 30-day period.
Legislation requiring that lost and stolen firearms be reported to law enforcement within 24 hours.
Legislation creating an Extreme Risk Protective Order, allowing law enforcement and the courts to temporarily separate a person from firearms if the person exhibits dangerous behavior that presents an immediate thre
Legislation prohibiting all individuals subject to final protective orders from possessing firearms. The bill expands Virginia law which currently prohibits individuals subject to final protective orders of family abuse from possessing firearms.
Legislation enhancing the punishment for allowing access to loaded, unsecured firearm by a child from a Class 3 Misdemeanor to a Class 6 felony. The bill also raises the age of the child from 14 to 18.
Legislation enabling localities to enact any firearms ordinances that are stricter than state law. This includes regulating firearms in municipal buildings, libraries and at permitted events.
The proposed laws only restrict law abiding gun owners.
HOWEVER !
I can see one gun law that needs tweaking !
Virginia's law covering Conceal Carry Permits !
Concealed carry is legal with a license/permit. Virginia Handgun Permits (VHPs) are issued to both residents and non-residents at least 21 years old and require a firearms training course that has been approved by the state.
Heck the way the law is written you can take an online course and qualify to carry a concealed hand gun, and you never have to touch a gun !
So for $28 you can be certified - and never have to touch a gun !
That's Crazy !!!
Heck the state will allow you to carry a pistol in your pocket and the only gun you have ever laid a hand on might be --
If the State is going to under wright your CCP/ VHPs it should require you to take a hands on course with real guns with Classroom instructors and shooting range experience.
Or show proof that you have experience with a firearm !
It's a safety thing !
Otherwise the state might want to consider Constitutional Carry !
( This releases the state of any liability )
The term constitutional carry, also called permit less carry, unrestricted carry, or Vermont carry, refers to the legal carrying of a handgun, either openly or concealed, without a license or permit.
Virginia's Conceal Carry law as written is simply another TAX !
And that's my -
