[Spats McGee]

I don't want the feds to pass a national reciprocity bill. There are too many ways that could go sideways for me, and for gun owners generally. I especially dislike the prospect of licensing requirements being dictated by folks that I can't vote out of office, like the distinguished Congressfolk from Illinois, NY, and CA.

With that said, I wouldn't object to a separate federal CCL, valid in all states, but IMHO, that's got the same chance as the proverbial snowball in hell. I'd much rather see a Compact for the Carrying of Concealed Weapons from the ABA, but given the path they're taking, that's unlikely to happen.
