Florida – FL Supreme Court Ruled that their Preemption Law means exactly what it says. If local authorities pass ordinance concerning firearm etc That the Local Officials can be held responsible. You can read the decision at

Hawaii - They have started issuing permits in Hawaii. Thing is Hawaii is 5 counties and their permits are issued by county and are only valid in the county they are issued in. 5 main islands so 5 counties. Some are passing their own restrictions on carry and the state is talking about expanding their location restrictions. Check out the Hawaii Page as it is different than all the other state pages because of the 5 different issuing agencies with 5 different set of rules/regs for issuing. https://www.handgunlaw.us/states/hawaii.pdf

Illinois – now has a mag ban and other restrictions on long guns etc.

New Jersey – New York - Both states are a mess. Their new carry laws just about make it impossible to carry a firearm even with one of their permits that they are having a hard time issuing. The courts are involved and there have been Stays on some court orders and then lifted and then put in place again. It makes it difficult to keep up and it could take a long time to get it all cleaned up in the courts. . If you want to know more of what is going on you can check out the State pages for NY and NJ
