and most of our e-quake activity is along the coast. In the central valley e-quakes are all but nonexistant. I live in Stanislaus Co. and my carry permit was issued with "Persornal Protection" being sufficient for good cause. MOST counties in CA will issue, just stay away from the big cities. However, if you have to work for a living our unemployment situation is really bad.

Florida, Arizona, Vermont, and Tenessee are pretty good states, among others, if you want to have the most freedom with firearms. If you dont mind living in the countryside and have the means, buy a nice piece of land that is not too close to other homes. That way you can shoot in your own backyard (as long as you follow the local laws of course).

Good luck with the move if you decide to. The "grass is always greener on the other side" as they say.

I'm seriously debating whether or not to move out of the Netherlands and settle across the Great Pond.

First worry about getting an immigrant visa, then worry about which state to live in.

( NJ, CA, MA, CT, and MD are the only ones to avoid at all costs, some would lump NY State in as well, NY City is OUT for sure).

Vermont, oddly enough, has extremely libertarian gun laws. Needless to say, so does New Hampshire.

Look at the Brady site,
handgun control.

Pick any state with a failing grade & then look into things like housing costs and the cost of living in one of those states.

I say it depends on what you want to do with your guns. As someone said earlier, the list of states that are pretty decent when it comes to regulations is a lot longer than the stringent states.

If you just want to target practice whenever/wherever you want, then yeah, try something like Wyoming. But if you're interested in getting into big game - deer, elk, etc., or waterfowl, or upland birds, etc., then you ought to research a little deeper. Different states certainly have different opportunities.

NOT Illinois, New Jersey, Hawaii, California, NYC

I'd stay away from Uze-beci-becki-becistan. Wherever that is.

Move to a state where you can get a good job.

Well, you can walk around with but you can't carry it in your car. What good is that in Alabama?

With a CC permit you can carry in the car. Says so right in my permit paperwork. Then OC when you get out if you want. Im more of a CC fan though.
