I must not be firing on all cylinders tonight. If this were to pass what is the license for then? Is it just for folks to pre establish they are not prohibited in the event of question? Section III would seem to remove the need altogether.

Does NH have NICS exemption with possession of a license? That and reciprocity are the only benefits I could see to still obtain a license if this passes. If it does pass, it would make NH Constitutional Carry more awesome than AZ Constitutional Carry
They should limit non-resident constitutional carry to only residents of states where a NH resident could carry permitless. Start a constitutional carry reciprocity trend and still get revenue from mass folks.

Edit: Looks like Oklahoma already started this trend.

New Hampshire Could Become the next Constitutional Carry State
Created: Friday, 23 January 2015
Written by Gun Owners of America
New Hampshire is a state where people care about their freedom, their individualism, and their constitutional rights.
So it is great news that Senators Jeb Bradley (R) and David Boutin (R) introduced Senate Bill 116, which would make New Hampshire the seventh “constitutional carry” state in the country.
The concept of “constitutional carry” is simple: An individual's ability to exercise his or her Second Amendment rights shouldn't depend on a “permit” from the government.
You don't need a government license to write a book. So why should you have to get the government's okay in order to carry a firearm to protect yourself and your family?
Currently, Americans in Vermont, Alaska, Wyoming, Arizona, Arkansas, and most of Montana can carry a firearm without a government license. Lest anyone fail to notice, these are not exactly high-crime areas as a result of their diligence for the constitutional rights of their citizens. In fact, these are some of the safest places in America.
Senate Bill 116 would add New Hampshire to that illustrious list of Constitution-loving states.
Make no mistake about it. Under Senate Bill 116, if a criminal carried a gun in connection with a crime, he has committed a crime and is going to prison.
But that's just the point: If law enforcement is allowed to focus on the “bad guys,” rather than the enforcement of silly counter-productive, unconstitutional nitpicking, crime will go down.
Crime will also go down if criminals have to consider the possibility that their victims could be armed and could shoot back. It's no surprise that the “dog that didn't bark” -- the mass murders that were planned but never occurred -- happened in places like the Appalachian School of Law or Pearl High School in Mississippi. In these places, citizens with guns stopped horrific crimes.
New Hamphsire could soon join them on the list of states where people are allowed to exercise their constitutional rights to protect themselves without asking “May I?” from the government.
ACTION: Urge your state senator to cosponsor and support Senate Bill 116.

No, because NICS exemption requires a background check, which must be repeated regularly (monthly?).
Heads up:
Written testimony, even if it is the same as the email stays with the permanent file, emails do not.
Please print out 5 copies of emails and hand them in at the hearing, even if you do not speak. It is hard to argue with a 4 inch thick folder of letters in support of this policy change.

Good luck guys! Can't wait to move to NH.
If people cannot be there, please email the Senators and CC me: (please make sure SB116 is in the subject line. I will make sure the CMTE gets hard copies of the emails for the folder.

I will tentatively be down below on Thursday for a family event. If I am, I won't be speaking, but I will make sure that design and JR and others have a copy of my statement to provide to the committee members.
If the family event is rescheduled, I will make the drive by myself, sign up to speak, and also provide written copies.

LOL silly me! The 2 women in the WDL in charge of legislative issues actually helped write this proposed bill!!!
We need people to show up. Look for the WDL and ask for a sticker to wear on your shirt, whether you are male or female it doesn't matter. This is a 2A issue but it is also a WOMENS RIGHTS ISSUE.
I have known women who were victims of domestic violence. Some of them have either been abused by law enforcement or their abuser has had VERY TIGHT connections with law enforcement. They have been too scared to go to the local PD for fear their abuser would either know that they had applied for a concealed carry permit OR their abuser would find out WHERE they were living after escaping their abuser!
The "left" preaches a woman's "right to choose" when it comes to abortion. We also have a right to CHOOSE to DEFEND ourselves!
If you cannot attend, send your friends, email/write your senators. Please support SB116!!!
You know the anti's will be trying to attack our rights. Let's take the fight to them!

Hi JR,
If we weren't available to go to the hearing, can we write and send a letter to which you could read/deliver on our behalf?
Again, still contemplating making the arrangements, time off, etc. to make it to Concord this Thursday.

OK, what's the "drop off" time? Just trying to line stuff up to see if I can make it. Like everyone else, I have commitments on both ends of the hearing. So maybe 12:30 PM to 3:30 PM? 4:00 PM?
Hopefully, if by some miracle this makes it through both houses of the state legislature, there is enough support for what is certain to be a Hassan veto to be over-ridden.![[thinking]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/010.gif "Thinking [thinking]")
Democratic Governor John Lynch signed the law abolishing all of NH's knife statutes. So there's hope.

Some pantywaists have chimed in on the comments. One has lived 60 years and NEVER been a situation that required a gun to resolve.
