With the stroke of a pen this week, Gov. Brian Sandoval (R) made law a measure to reform concealed carry rights and expand castle doctrine in the state.

Signed late Monday was a Senate bill approved by House members last week 25-17 that will expand castle doctrine to include occupied vehicles, as well as scrap Clark County’s outdated “blue card” registration scheme and other reforms.

In his testimony to lawmakers on the measure last month, sponsor Senate Majority Leader Michael Roberson, R-Henderson, held up the proposal as a correction to the state’s gun laws.

“[T]o allow law-abiding gun owners to appropriately defend themselves in their vehicles as they can in their homes, and to ensure that our citizens’ Second Amendment rights are upheld in a fair, uniform way across the state,” Roberson said.

Nevada Carry blog said:
Formerly, state law prohibited local municipalities from making their own firearm regulations (except regarding discharge of firearms) and handgun registration in Clark County was also exempted. Now this has been enhanced to eliminate handgun registration (‘blue cards’), require local governments to take obsolete firearm laws off the books, and clarified language that specifies no existing local laws or regulations regarding firearms are permissible whatsoever. In October, stiff civil penalties will be added for anyone who is adversely affected by illegal enforcement of invalidated laws.

Effective immediately, all local laws, regulations, rules, and ordinances are null and void. These laws are unenforceable. The law must also be interpreted liberally; in other words, if there is a doubt whether the new law applies, then it must be assumed to apply.


Now THAT'S pre-emption!
