Discretionary issue is a problem, and where it is unevenly applied it's unfair. I know this, because I live in Mass., where the issuing authority is the local police who have complete discretion for issuing Licenses to Carry Firearms.
ONe town might be a shall-issue town, and another a virtual no-issue town. Fortunately, I live in a rural town with a police chief who has no problem granting licenses.
Between my Mass. license and my non-resident N.H. license, I may carry in many states.
There is no reciprocity in New England, but Vermont, which is a non-licensing state, honors both of my licenses.
It's a real crazy quilt of laws out there, gents.
