the progress of open carry

An email popped into my inbox with this interesting link attached: http://www.kc3.com/CCW_progress.htm



I find this fascinating!  Over 21 years, more states have become "shall issue" states than not ... and still, California stands strong in it's state of "may issue".  Granted, there is fear that if the anti-gun state that borders the Pacific became a "shall issue" state, it could then regulate the "shall" so much that it would be less existent than the "may" currently is ... either way, the trend depicted by this interactive diagram are interesting nonetheless!

(sidenote: it was created in 2006, so it would be interesting to see if it has changed over the past 6 years, to what extent, and in which way)
