The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 passed today in the House 231-198. This common-sense legislation would create concealed firearm reciprocity throughout the country: allowing a legally qualified individual to carry a concealed firearm in other states that allow individuals to carry concealed firearms." In addition to expanding protections for law-abiding gun-owners, H.R. 38: Includes legislation to Fix NICS: Encouraging and incentivizing states to enter records that would legally disqualify a person from purchasing a firearm into the FBI background check system; Sets common-sense guidelines for carrying firearms across state lines; Does not impede on municipalities rights to enact restrictions on where, when, and how people can carry in their jurisdiction; Excludes any individual who is prohibited by federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm; and Does not change laws on purchasing a gun or change access to law-abiding gun owners. f t # e	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
