  209. <p>Background<br>Firearms officers need to be able to safely handle their weapons, both operationally and<br>during training; this module is designed to bring the FPU members up to internationally<br>recognised standards of weapon handling and weapons skills. Firearms basic level<br>takes the officers to first level of competence expected of an FPU. This will see them<br>master the basic principles of marksmanship. It is therefore important that the<br>instructors assess the standard of the unit’s weapons handling skills prior to the<br>commencement of the course to ascertain their standard and they will then be able to<br>gauge the exact amount of time that will be required for the students to attain the<br>learning outcomes of the module. The timings given in this module are based on officers<br>who have already received basic weapons training and are conversant with their<br>personal weapons and have previously conducted firing practices on a range. The drills<br>are generic and are designed to be carried out on any similar weapon to that shown in<br>the training material, it is acknowledged that individual FPUs use different weapons<br>systems; it is for the instructor to adapt the training according to the relevant weapon.<br>Aim<br>To familiarize the FPU members with general safety procedures along with<br>marksmanship principles associated with handling of weapons in training and practical<br>situations and to apply those procedures and principles.<br>Learning outcomes<br>At the end of the module the participants will be able to:</p>

  245. <p>Training sequence<br>The material in this module is designed to be delivered over twenty-four hour periods,<br>with three individual theoretical lessons containing PowerPoint presentation then<br>thirteen hours of practical lessons to practice the individual techniques. The practical<br>lessons should be sufficient for the student with prior knowledge of firearms handling.<br>However, if at that stage the instructor thinks that there is a need for further practice,<br>then that will be at their discretion.<br>Officers who are unsafe with firearms at this basic level should not be allowed to<br>progress on to firing on a range until they are confident and competent with the<br>weapons. This may be particularly relevant where the FPU is being deployed with<br>weapons that they are not familiar with. In this case, more time may be required to<br>ensure their weapon handling skills are up to standard before they engage in range<br>practice and subsequently deploy.<br>Duration<br>Minimum Session<br>time<br>Lecture/Presentation Question/Assessment Session Activities<br>24 hours 3 hours Dry practice 13<br>hours<br>Additional<br>Options<br>Mission Specific Optional film Optional activity<br>Range practice 8<br>hours<br>Methodology<br>This module contains four basic PowerPoint presentations to explain the theory and<br>show the various techniques used in weapon handling.

  281. <p>A gun is a tool just like any other, and if you take care of it by keeping it clean, it will last you a long time. Cleaning a gun properly is essential, but proper lubrication is just as, if not more, necessary.</p>
  282. <p>A firearm is comparable to a car. Cars require regular maintenance, an inspection of wear on parts and replacement as needed, and lubrication to run right. When a vehicle is neglected and these simple tasks are not performed, it is more likely to break, less likely to last a long time, and more expensive to maintain over time.</p>
  283. <p>Every time you get home from the range after shooting, you should clean your gun. Consider cleaning and lubricating your weapon as part of your range day, and you’ll likely avoid some of the most common issues with firearms. This step-by-step guide is here to help you learn how to take your gun cleaning skills to the next level, covering best practices for pistols, ARs, and other long guns.</p>
  284. <p>Whether it’s a workbench in the garage or a table in your house, always dedicate a good amount of space for gun cleaning.</p>
  285. <p>This space should never have any drinks or food near it for two reasons. The first is it’s easy to knock over and create an even bigger mess, and the second is because lead is ingested through the mouth, nose, and eyes. If you are scrubbing a barrel while snacking on chips, you are most likely poisoning yourself without even knowing it.</p>
  286. <p>Remove all live ammunition from your cleaning space, whether it’s the ammo for the gun you’re cleaning or not. Many negligent discharges occur because the round is not cleared from the gun’s chamber before disassembling the firearm. Other caliber rounds should be removed because the solvent can cause corrosion which can cause ammunition to malfunction.</p>
  287. <h2>Common Bullet Types</h2>
  288. <ul>
  289. <li><strong>FMJ (Full Metal Jacket):</strong>&nbsp;Metal cased and full metal jacket both refer to bullets with a metal coating that covers all of, or all but the base of, a bullet.</li>
  290. </ul>
  291. <ul>
  292. <li><strong>MC (Metal Cased):</strong>&nbsp;This is a term used by Remington to refer to their full metal jacketed bullets.</li>
  293. </ul>
  294. <ul>
  295. <li><strong>HP (Hollow Point):</strong>&nbsp;Hollow point bullets have a concave shaped tip that facilitates rapid expansion of the round upon impact.</li>
  296. </ul>
  297. <ul>
  298. <li><strong>BT (Boat Tail):</strong>&nbsp;Boat tail bullets have a streamlined base to facilitate better aerodynamics.</li>
  299. </ul>
  300. <p>Sometimes, these terms are mixed to make a new acronym.</p>
  301. <ul>
  302. <li><strong>FMJBT (Full Metal Jacketed Boat Tail):</strong>&nbsp;Full metal jacket boat tail ammunition commonly refers to rife ammunition with the boat tail design that incorporates a copper jacket.</li>
  303. </ul>
  304. <ul>
  305. <li><strong>JHP (Jacketed Hollow Point):</strong>&nbsp;Jacketed hollow point bullets are similar in design to regular hollow point bullets, but have a copper jacket that normally covers everything but the hollowed portion of the round.</li>
  306. </ul>
  307. <ul>
  308. <li><strong>JFP (Jacketed Flat Point):</strong>&nbsp;Jacketed flat point rounds have a flat area of exposed lead at the tip.</li>
  309. </ul>
  310. <ul>
  311. <li><strong>JSP (Jacketed Soft Point):</strong>&nbsp;Jacketed soft point bullets usually have a spire pointed tip of exposed lead. JSP can also refer to a Jacketed spitzer point; spitzer meaning a sharply pointed bullet.</li>
  312. </ul>
  313. <ul>
  314. <li><strong>JRN (Jacketed Round Nose):</strong>&nbsp;Jacketed round nose bullets split the difference between JFP and JSP bullets and have a rounded tip of exposed lead.</li>
  315. </ul>
  316. <ul>
  317. <li><strong>BTHP (Boat Tail Hollow Point):</strong>&nbsp;BTHP ammunition commonly refers to rife ammunition with the boat tail design that utilizes an expanding hollow point design.</li>
  318. </ul>
  319. <ul>
  320. <li><strong>BTSP (Boat Tail Soft Point):</strong>&nbsp;Sometimes the letters in the acronyms are switched, so boat tail soft point may also be abbreviated as soft point boat tail or SPBT.</li>
  321. </ul>
  322. <ul>
  323. <li><strong>EFMJ (Expanding Full Metal Jacket):</strong>&nbsp;Expanding full metal jacketed rounds appear as and feed like a regular full metal jacket bullet, but have a construction that allows the case to collapse and the bullet to flatten upon impact.</li>
  324. </ul>
  325. <ul>
  326. <li><strong>WC (Wad Cutter):</strong>&nbsp;Wad cutter designs often appear to be nothing more than a cylinder, usually with a hollow base. This design is used in target practice to punch neat holes in the paper, rather than the ragged holes produced by more rounded designs.</li>
  327. </ul>
  328. <div class="wp-block-image">
  329. <ul>
  330. <li><strong>AP (Armor Piercing):</strong>&nbsp;Armor piercing ammunition can have bullets with a variety of shapes, though in general they are spire pointed and full metal jacketed rounds that have a strong core designed to penetrate armor.</li>
  331. </ul>
  332. <ul>
  333. <li><strong>API (Armor Piercing Incendiary):</strong>&nbsp;Armor piercing incendiary ammunition has the same&nbsp;<a href="https://blog.cheaperthandirt.com/bullet-penetration-home-environments/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">penetrating abilities</a>&nbsp;of armor piercing bullets, but with the added function of bursting into an intense flame upon impact.</li>
  334. </ul>
  335. <ul>
  336. <li><strong>Frangible:</strong>&nbsp;Frangible ammunition is available under a number of trademarks; notably MagSafe, Glaser, and SinterFire. All of these rounds are characterized by a design that facilitates the rapid breakup of the bullet upon impact, thus reducing the chances of over-penetration or a ricochet.</li>
  337. </ul>
  338. <ul>
  339. <li><strong>Shotshell:</strong>&nbsp;Shotshell ammunition is primarilly designed for pest control and utilizes a plastic capsule filled with small pellets that spread when fired.</li>
  340. </ul>
  341. <ul>
  342. <li><strong>SWC (Semi Wad Cutter):</strong>&nbsp;Semi wad cutter bullets have a rounded nose that comes down to a cylinder that is slightly larger than the rounded section, giving the bullet a more aerodynamic shape while allowing it to punch clean holes in paper targets.</li>
  343. </ul>
  344. <ul>
  345. <li><strong>RFP (Rounded Flat Point):</strong>&nbsp;Rounded flat point bullets have a flat tip that is smaller than the bullet diameter and rounded shoulders.</li>
  346. </ul>
  347. <p>This list is by no means exhaustive. There are other variations in bullet designs, many of which are proprietary and made only by certain manufacturers.</p>
  348. <h4><strong>If there are other bullet types you think should be listed, be sure to let us know in the comment section.</strong></h4>

  379. <p>Concealed carry handguns are those that can be carried without alerting others to the gun’s presence. When selecting a handgun ideal for concealed carry, you want to find a firearm that gives you a sense of security.</p>
  380. <p>These handguns have been specially chosen by our knowledgable team of professional firearm experts.</p>
  381. <p class="p1">When planning to buy a concealed carry handgun people tend to conflate “best” with “small,” but small relates to different people in different ways.</p>
  382. <p class="p1">Six-foot-two Bert weighing 240 pounds may see a compact pistol as small in his ever expanding waistband whereas 5-foot-4 Ernie weighing 120 pounds finds the same gun too big for his skinny jeans. Therefore, “practical” might be the preferred definition. The best concealed carry handgun is what’s most practical for you.</p>
  383. <p class="p1">As the term implies, a concealed carry handgun is one you could carry without alerting others to the gun’s presence. The goal when selecting a concealed carry handgun is finding one that gives you a sense of security, but also holsters comfortably and remains hidden until you access it. While this list will mention brands and specific models, their use will illustrate attributes of handguns as they relate to concealed carry.</p>
  384. <p class="p1">Here are the five best handgun options for concealed carry.</p>
  385. <ul>
  386. <li>1. Compact Handguns</li>
  387. <li>2. Snub Nosed Revolvers</li>
  388. <li>3. Sub Compact Handguns</li>
  389. <li>4. Slimline Handguns</li>
  390. <li>5. Pocket Pistols</li>
  391. </ul>

  569. <a rel="nofollow" href="https://maxammodepot.com/our-experts-talk-about-tactical-training/">The 4 Best Home Defense Shotguns</a></p>
  570.  
  571. <p>What is the best shotgun for home defense? That’s a great question, and one that gets asked a lot. Shotguns are popular for home defense because they’re effective, easy to use, and affordable. There are also a lot of myths about shotguns which bolster their popularity.</p>
  572.  
  573.  
  574.  
  575. <p>We’re going to get into what makes a shotgun good for home defense in a minute. But first, odds are good you want to see names of makes and models. So, without further ado…</p>
  576.  
  577.  
  578.  
  579. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Best Shotguns for Home Defense</h2>
  580.  
  581.  
  582.  
  583. <p>The top four shotguns for home defense in 2021 are:</p>
  584.  
  585.  
  586.  
  587. <ol><li>The Beretta 1301</li><li>Remington 870 Police</li><li>Mossberg 590A1</li><li>Benelli M4</li></ol>
  588.  
  589.  
  590.  
  591. <p>We’ll go into more detail about these shotguns later. But to answer the question of what is the best shotgun for home defense, we need to go into a little more detail.</p>
  592.  
  593.  
  594.  
  595. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Home Defense Shotguns: What To Look For</h2>
  596.  
  597.  
  598.  
  599. <blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow"><p>To give you the bottom line up front, the best shotgun for home defense is a reliable, well-made 12 gauge with good sights firing 00 buck from a quality company.</p></blockquote>
  600.  
  601.  
  602.  
  603. <p>I recognize the traits aren’t nearly as exciting as the firearms themselves. To say a reliable, well-made gun you can put on target is a good shotgun is somewhat a boring answer. In order to understand why that list of four shotguns is credible as a list of solid home defense shotgun choices, we need to get into what makes a shotgun good for home defense. Understand, this is a list of ideal features that we want on a defensive gun, so if your gun is missing one of them, don’t worry.</p>
  604.  
  605.  
  606.  
  607. <p>For assistance with this article, I talked to Tim Chandler of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.justifieddefensiveconcepts.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Justified Defensive Concepts</a>. He’s one of the leading experts in defensive shotguns. He offered some valuable insight in what you want in a defensive gun.</p>
  608.  
  609.  
  610.  
  611. <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Length of Pull</h4>
  612.  
  613.  
  614.  
  615. <p>The first thing Chandler mentioned is the importance of a length of pull under 13 inches.</p>
  616.  
  617.  
  618.  
  619. <p>Length of pull, abbreviated LOP, is the distance from the trigger to the back of the stock. Having LOP under 13 inches allows the shooter to control the gun better, which helps reduce felt recoil. Lower felt recoil theoretically means you’re getting more shots off on your target faster.</p>
  620.  
  621.  
  622.  
  623. <h4 class="wp-block-heading">Shotgun Sights</h4>
  624.  
  625.  
  626.  
  627. <p>The next requirement is good sights. I know people don’t think you have to aim a shotgun, but that is not true. You definitely need to aim a shotgun, especially at home defense distances. At 15 yards, my Beretta 1301 shoots a 6-inch pattern. At 5 yards, a common household distance, it will shoot every pellet into a group the size of a quarter. You absolutely have to aim shotguns.</p>
  628.  
  629.  
  630.  
  631. <p>A good home defense shotgun should pattern consistently, be well-made, and robust.</p>
  632.  
  633.  
  634.  
  635. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Home Defense Shotgun Ammo</h2>
  636.  
  637.  
  638.  
  639. <p>Ammo choice is important as well. For&nbsp;<a href="https://www.targetbarn.com/12-gauge-ammo.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">12 Gauge ammo</a>, 00 buckshot is the standard, and if possible the best loads are&nbsp;<a href="https://www.targetbarn.com/federal-premium-law-enforcement-12-gauge-ammunition-5-rounds-of-2-3-4-00-buck-shot.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Federal Flite Control 8 pellet</a>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<a href="https://www.targetbarn.com/hornady-critical-defense-12-gauge-ammunition-10-rounds-of-2-3-4-00-buckshot-1.php" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hornady Critical Defense 8 pellet</a>. Both of these loads use a proprietary wad that keeps the pellets together longer, delivering awesome terminal performance. Federal also makes their Flite Control load in #1 buckshot, which I personally haven’t used, but experts recommend highly.</p>
  640.  
  641.  
  642.  
  643. <p>Regardless of what buckshot you select, it’s imperative you pattern it with your gun, and hopefully adjust those sights to make sure you’re on target.</p>
  644.  
  645.  
  646.  
  647. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Best Home Defense Shotguns Ranked</h2>
  648.  
  649.  
  650.  
  651. <p>Now that we have some standards, let’s look at the guns that are good to go for home defense. As we said before, the best home defense shotguns in 2021 are:</p>
  652.  
  653.  
  654.  
  655. <ol><li>Beretta 1301</li><li>Remington 870 Police</li><li>Mossberg 590A1</li><li>Benelli M4</li></ol>
  656.  
  657.  
  658.  
  659. <p>Keep reading to see why these stack up as the best shotguns for home defense</p>
  660.  
  661.  
  662.  
  663. <p>Any one of those shotguns is going to give a lifetime of service, deliver great performance, and be reliable when you need it.</p>
  664.  
  665.  
  666.  
  667. <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Worst Shotguns for Home Defense</h2>
  668.  
  669.  
  670.  
  671. <p>As we wrap up, it’s important to briefly note what isn’t on that list: turkey guns, rifled deer slug guns, and .410 handguns. There’s a reason for that, and it’s because the guns on this list are designed for a specific purpose – fighting. Turkey guns are designed to kill birds. Deer slug guns are designed to be rifles. While they have their purpose, it’s not for home defense. Besides, if you want the&nbsp;<em>best</em>&nbsp;shotgun for home defense, shouldn’t you get one that’s made for that?</p>

  701. <p>The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.</p>
  702. <p>It&#8217;s a common refrain touted by gun rights advocates, who argue that using guns in self-defense can help save lives. But what is the actual number of defensive gun uses?</p>
  703. <p>According to the Pew Research Center,&nbsp;<a href="http://www.people-press.org/2013/03/12/why-own-a-gun-protection-is-now-top-reason/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">48 percent</a>&nbsp;of gun owners say they own a gun mainly for protection. But for years, experts have been divided over how often people actually use guns in self-defense. The numbers range from the millions to hundreds of thousands, depending on whom you ask.</p>

  712. <p>The latest data show that people use guns for self-defense only rarely. According to a&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0091743515001188" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard University analysis</a>&nbsp;of figures from the National Crime Victimization Survey, people defended themselves with a gun in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/fv9311.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nearly 0.9 percent</a>&nbsp;of crimes from 2007 to 2011.</p>
  713. <p>David Hemenway, who led the Harvard research, argues that the risks of owning a gun outweigh the benefits of having one in the rare case where you might need to defend yourself.</p>
  714. <p>&#8220;The average person &#8230; has basically no chance in their lifetime ever to use a gun in self-defense,&#8221;&nbsp;<a href="http://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2018/04/11/defensive-gun-uses?utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=storiesfromnpr" target="_blank" rel="noopener">he tells</a>&nbsp;<em>Here &amp; Now</em>&#8216;s Robin Young. &#8220;But &#8230; every day, they have a chance to use the gun inappropriately. They have a chance, they get angry. They get scared.&#8221;</p>

  718. <p>But the research spread by the gun lobby paints a drastically different picture of self-defense gun uses. One of the most commonly cited estimates of defensive gun uses,&nbsp;<a href="http://scholarlycommons.law.northwestern.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=6853&amp;context=jclc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">published in 1995</a>&nbsp;by criminologists Gary Kleck and Marc Gertz, concluded there are between 2.2 and 2.5 million defensive gun uses annually.</p>
  719. <p>One of the main criticisms of this estimate is that researchers can&#8217;t seem to find the people who are shot by civilians defending themselves because they don&#8217;t show up in hospital records.</p>

  749. <p>In the United States, gun laws are a contentious issue. This is because of the varying opinions in place, with part of the population calling for gun restrictions laws while the other part being pro-gun rights and calling for more laxity. With calls to change the federal gun laws having not been implemented, the gun control laws vary across the states. Some states have strict policies to strengthen gun control, citing an increase in mass shootings across the country. Others have less stringent laws regarding gun ownership and carrying, citing the second amendment that gives every citizen of the United States the right to bear arms. If you are looking to become a gun owner, it is essential to know what the laws are regarding gun ownership in any given state. With the many changes happening in gun laws, it can be overwhelming, trying to figure out which are the gun-friendly states. At the most fundamental level, the less the gun restrictions a state has, the more gun-friendly it is. Read on to learn what are the most <strong>gun friendly states</strong></p>
  750. <h2 class="" dir="ltr"><span id="States_with_the_strictest_gun_laws">States with the strictest gun laws</span></h2>
  751. <p dir="ltr">In the USA, federal laws regarding control of guns do not touch on firearm sales regulation. This is because lawmakers still cite the second amendment to mean that every citizen in the USA has the right to bear arms. Heavy penalties exist for gun owners who transport their guns from a loose gun policy state to any of the second amendment sanctuary counties, especially since these states tend to neighbor each other. For states that have implemented strict laws, the main aim is normally to promote public safety, which has inhibited the growth of the firearm industry in these states. Statistics have shown that these states have reduced incidents of incidents like public mass shootings and are not considered gun-friendly states. With the varying federal law changes, it can be hard to keep track of which states have strict laws. Below is a list of some of the <strong>states with the strictest gun laws</strong></p>
  752. <ul class="">
  753. <li dir="ltr">California and Illinois state</li>
  754. </ul>
  755. <p dir="ltr">California is famously known for its strictest gun legislation. You need to be 18 years to possess a gun, but you have to be 21 years to purchase one. Background checks and gun registration is required during private firearm sales. After purchase, there are ten days waiting period. Open carry is prohibited, and carry permits are only issued on condition that you uphold concealed carry permits. As a may-issue state, you can apply for a concealed carry permit to carry a concealed weapon, and it&#8217;s up to the local authorities to decide whether to agree to it or not. It is also illegal to have guns on campus, and in schools; this has discouraged the gun sales growth of the gun industry.  If you are convicted of a violent case, you cannot own a gun for about ten years after the conviction. The state also has in place the assault weapons ban. Firearm Owners Identification (FOID) Card is a permit to purchase given to anyone above 21 years old who wants to own a gun. During private gun sales, background checks are required. However, registration of guns is not a requirement. There is a waiting period of seventy-two hours after every purchase. Open carry is prohibited. Concealed weapons can be carried with a concealed carry permit, but they are prohibited in some places such as schools and social places such as bars and public transportation. Any individual who is convicted of domestic abuse will have their FOID card revoked. The state also has a red-flag law that states that people who are considered a danger to themselves and those around them can have their guns taken away.</p>
  756. <ul class="">
  757. <li dir="ltr">NewYork and New Jersey</li>
  758. </ul>
  759. <p dir="ltr">New York is not one of the gun-friendly states as it has strict gun legislation. For you to be able to possess a long gun in New York, you need to be sixteen years. However, you need twenty-one years to possess a handgun while residing in New york. Background checks are mandatory during private gun sales, and a purchase permit should be presented. Registration is also required for handguns. Even though there is no waiting period, handguns may take up to half a year to be processed in New york. Open carry is illegal but a shall-issue state; you can apply for a concealed carry permit to carry a concealed firearm. It is illegal to carry a gun either openly or in concealment on campus without the institution&#8217;s fore authorization. New Jersey also enforces the ban on assault weapons. The legal age to get a handgun is 21 years, while for long guns, it&#8217;s 18 years. It is mandatory to carry out background checks during private gun sales, with a  handgun purchase permit taking about seven days for processing. Open carry is illegal and, therefore, a purchase permit is needed both for open carry and conceal carry. The New Jersey state also has in place a red flag law and a ban on assault weapons. Guns are banned from educational facilities, and no student is granted a purchase permit.</p>
  760. <h2 class="" dir="ltr"><span id="Gun_laws_by_state_map">Gun laws by state map</span></h2>
  761. <p dir="ltr">If you do not have a minimum age to possess a gun in some states , you cannot own one as it is not one of the gun-friendly states. This has seen legislation around gun control moved to the state level, bringing about varying degrees of strictness in each state. It is the job of every gun proprietor to understand what the gun control laws or the state rifle laws are for the state you live in or for any state you will be going to with your gun.  If you want a clear picture of all states with their gun laws, you can check out the <strong>gun laws by state map</strong>.</p>
  762. <ul class="">
  763. <li dir="ltr">Maryland and Connecticut</li>
  764. </ul>
  765. <p dir="ltr">As a buyer, you need a purchase permit, and you need to be 21 to purchase a handgun and 18 to purchase a rifle or shotgun. Sellers cannot make gun sales from those below these ages. Registration is required for all handguns, while gun purchases have a waiting period of 7 days before gun sales are made. Background checks are partially required before any gun ownership can be granted.

With no minimum age to possess long guns, you need to be 18 and have a purchase permit for gun purchases in Connecticut. For handguns, you need to be 21 years and have a purchase permit and a carry permit. For private gun sales, extensive background checks are a requirement. After making your gun sales, the customer has no waiting period to use it after purchase. Connecticut has partial bans for both gun registrations and assault weapons. For open carry, it is legal for long guns, but a carry permit is needed for handguns. For a concealed weapon, you can carry it without a permit. Connecticut was the first state to enact the red-flag law in 1999.</p>
  766. <ul class="">
  767. <li dir="ltr">Massachusetts and Hawaii</li>
  768. </ul>
  769. <p dir="ltr">With firearms registration not required after purchase, you need to be 21 to purchase and possess a handgun and 18 for long guns. Gun sales are only made if a customer has a permit to purchase, and there are no waiting periods after a purchase. It is illegal to openly carry your firearms, and you need a carry permit to carry a concealed gun. The state also has in place a red flag bill and a ban on assault weapons. Firearms are prohibited on campus grounds. In Hawaii, the age requirement for gun possession and purchase is 21 years, and sellers are restricted from making gun sales for those below 21. After purchase, the waiting period ranges from 14 to 20 days, with registration required for not only some but all firearms purchased. You need a carry permit for you to openly carry firearms or to carry concealed firearms. In practice, this purchase permit is rarely offered unless the applicant presents a good enough reason or is engaged in protecting life and property. Carrying guns on campus is only prohibited for students. The state officials are also permitted to seize the firearms of anyone considered a threat. The state also has in place the assault weapons ban.</p>
  770. <h2 class="" dir="ltr"><span id="States_with_best_gun_laws">States with best gun laws</span></h2>
  771. <p dir="ltr">Mississippi scored dead last on the Law Center&#8217;s state scoreboard to Combat Gun Abuse, and the state has lately loosened some of its gun controls. It is considered one of the <strong>states with best gun laws</strong>. Permits are not necessary to carry a weapon, either freely or covertly. Mississippi state eliminates cover-up carry permit fees for any who wish to receive them. Mississippi does not authorize or heavily control gun dealers. Mississippi is a pro-gun state. If a gun is carried in a holster, purse, sheath, handbag, or suitcase, one does not require a carry permit. Buying a gun in private gun sales in Mississippi is also relatively easy since no purchase permit is needed or background checks. The guns sellers do not need to have any.  licenses to trade in guns. The price of concealed permits has also been reduced, making it easier for gun owners to get one. Mississippi is also among the shall-issue states in the country.</p>
  772. <ul class="">
  773. <li dir="ltr">Georgia and Montana State</li>
  774. </ul>
  775. <p dir="ltr">Georgia is a Peach State which is located in the most conservative region of South America. It has very accommodative laws governing gun ownership. Individuals who own guns are protected and can carry their arms everywhere, including schools, colleges, and hospitals. In case you&#8217;re an inhabitant, you can have confidence all neighboring states will respect your grant as well, due to the Stand your ground laws and the  Castle Doctrine laws that protect you wherever you go. Georgia has conveyed laws that are considerably more careless than different states. Generally, it would be best to note that Georgia has bureaucratic regulations that preclude gun-carrying to areas such as the National Park and government buildings or legislative structures.  However, there might be more zones for gun proprietors to move around within Georgia than in other states legitimately. Georgia is one of the shall-issue states. Montana is an enormous Sky Country that has gun-friendly laws; it is famous for its outdoor activities such as fishing and hunting. This state does not have a concealed carry reciprocity map. Thus, both its residents and those visiting are not allowed to carry concealed guns even though they have CCW reciprocity laws governing them in their respective states. This means that the neighboring countries respect the same. While in Montana, you should note that they prohibit gun-carrying in some places such as Banks and ATM. They additionally have a subsection of rules where a landowner can disallow gun possession. In case you&#8217;re leasing, you should request to maintain a strategic distance from unpleasantries. Besides a couple of laws governing gun ownership, Montana is an extraordinary state for gun proprietors.</p>
  776. <ul class="">
  777. <li dir="ltr">Kentucky, Utah and Vermont  state</li>
  778. </ul>
  779. <p dir="ltr">Kentucky is positioned five on Guns &amp; Ammo&#8217;s list of gun-friendly states. The state law allows a carry permit to someone who meets the minimum requirements. Kentucky has no legislation restricting weapons ownership by individuals convicted for offenses of domestic violence. That is through federal law that prevents them from possessing guns. Kentucky state is known for its Stand your ground laws and the Castle Doctrine laws and shall issue states. Utah does not mandate the submission of mentally ill persons to the weapon database used during background checks. Utah prohibits municipal councils from passing gun laws and does not require missing or stolen weapons, thus falling in the list of gun-friendly states. Utah State also has robust Castle Doctrine laws and Stand your ground laws.</p>
  780. <p dir="ltr">On the other hand, Vermont is considered one of the safest places to live in the country. Open carry laws are in force in this state as carry permits are issued to residents. Residents also have no restrictions on magazine sizes. Gun owners can quickly bring their guns anywhere within the state, including but not limited to some places such as the place of worship, restaurants, or even pubs. States such as Vermont have laws that allow new gun owners not to carry their permits or have a background check when getting a gun. Loose gun laws also allow children as young as sixteen to acquire certain guns, with no background checks or registration of guns carried out, thus, promoting the growth of the gun industry.</p>
  781. <h2 class="" dir="ltr"><span id="Which_state_has_the_most_guns_per_personnbsp">Which state has the most guns per person? </span></h2>
  782. <p dir="ltr">Here is a glance at statistics on per capita guns, centered on the national Firearms Registry and Transfer Record of the ATF, and U.S. data as of 2021. From the survey, while the most available list of this kind is the National Weapons Register and Transfer Registry of the ATF, it is not all-inclusive. These states are the most gun-friendly due to their favorable gun laws. However, certain weapons fall beyond this scope, and many are not licensed, which means that gun ownership polls come to varying conclusions. According to Zerohedge, the increased sales of guns and the growth of the gun industry in the USA has made the country to transform into a violent mess. If you are wondering <strong>which state has the most guns</strong> per person with best gun laws, check out this list below for a peek at the findings.</p>
  783. <ul class="">
  784. <li dir="ltr">Georgia, New Hampshire, Indiana, and Kentucky state</li>
  785. </ul>
  786. <p dir="ltr">In the number 13 slot, Georgia is tied with New Hampshire with the same numbers of guns per capita, but many individual guns in the state. There are 14.6 arms for every 1,000 people in both Georgia and New Hampshire. These two states permit the shall-issue laws to be in place. In Indiana, the shall issue permit is in force, and thus it is considered a friendly state to own a gun.  There are 14.1 arms for every 1,000 people in Indiana.   Kentucky is position 16, with 13.5 weapons for every 1,000 people.

There are 12.3 arms for every 1,000 people in Oklahoma. Colorado has shall-issue laws for its residents. These laws permit residents to own weapons openly. This has increased the number of those owning guns to 12 arms for every 1,000 residents in Colorado.</p>

  819. </ul>
  820. <p dir="ltr">Arizona has gun-friendly laws; as a gun owner, you are granted an open carry permit with no registration required; thus, it is considered a gun-friendly state with a shall-issue law in place. There are 9.4 weapons for every 1,000 people in Arizona. This means that  Arizona has about 62,527 registered weapons spread among its 6,626,624 individuals.
