It’s amazing to me that so many southern “freedom” states don’t even deserve to hold NH’s jock strap when it comes to freedoms.

The benefit of the south is you are surrounded by like minded people in neighboring states. In NH, you can't travel very far before you are back in socialist America.

In NH you're surrounded. The commies won't play nice forever. Its not in their nature.

The main obstacle in those states are the local sheriffs who mainly don’t want to give up the money they get from the gun licenses. In Alabama specifically, the sheriffs were very vocal about losing the money. Also it seems often those sheriffs are old and have been there for decades. The newer younger generation of politicians and sheriffs are much more pro 2A re constitutional carry

The money is the justification. The reason is they don't want to give up the power to say no for their own prejudices.

All the states are shall issue and no license open carry, so they really don’t ever deny anyone or prevent anyone from carrying like MA. I think the money is a big deal because they can hire cousins, etc and they use the money to increase their influence which allows them to win re-election and stay in office. Number one priority for any politician is to win re-election

If Florida gets constitutional carry, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina etc will feel a lot more pressure. It’s really only a matter of time for all these states. Pennsylvania already passed it but the governor will definitely veto. As soon as they get a GOP governor, they’ll pass it again and it’s going to be law. Ditto Wisconsin, Michigan, North Carolina, Louisiana. There will be 35 constitutional carry states. The dem leaning or dem strong states Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico, Illinois, Minnesota, Virginia, NJ, NY, MA, CT, RI are unlikely or never unless the courts force it.

@Supermoto's right.

I have multiple permits, with my two primary ones being GA and CT because I live in those two states.
Here's a comparison of where I can carry as a licensed GA resident .vs. a licensed CT resident:


GEORGIA PERMIT ONLY:

CT PERMIT ONLY

And here's a map of where I can carry using all of my permits, (GA, CT, UT, FL, NH). I'm still landlocked in CT.

Between MA, PA, and CC, my map looks a lot like that. I can't carry in RI or CT, but can in the rest of New England. A lot of states in the south recognize every other states permits. SC is a big exception to that, but does recognize permits from a lot of other southern states.

In CT, my problems are MA, RI & NY. I might be able to get a MA permit, but last time I looked it was kinda questionable, and it had to be renewed yearly. RI looked almost as problematic, and NY just isn't going to happen.

As a MA resident, you can fairly easily get a CT non-resident permit; CT will issue you a permit unless they have cause not to. The only hoop you'll have to jump through is the class, and there are MA instructors who offer it.

Which would only leave RI as a problem for you.

I was contemplating buying a plot of land in SC with a group of friends; they extended their reciprocity to GA.
