    Default Re: gun ?

    some states offer reciprocity to CCW holders from other states. I've never heard of another country that would allow it. but I would be interested to know if there is one.

    here's the reciprocity map of US for MI.



    disclaimer: you should, of course, double check these things before actually traveling.

    If you are afraid of going to Jamaica, don't go. But if you bring a gun, don't be surprised if you end up in their prison system.

    Along this same line. I was told that a state permit was not valid when the holder was on any of the federal highways as they are deemed federal property and beyond the states control (for this purpose at least)

    any truth to this?

    No.

    State law governs this issue. As an aside, the last time I checked there were no federal DOT workers building freeways in my state - they are all built and maintained by CalTrans and its contractors.

    nowhere near afraid of going. but a tourist is the best possible target if you were to rob, that goes for newhere. but neways thanks for all the feedback. very much appreciated.
