    Idaho: Governor Otter Signs Permitless Carry Legislation!

    This afternoon, March 25, 2016, Governor C.L. “Butch” Otter (R) signed Senate Bill 1389, NRA-endorsed permitless carry legislation. On July 1, 2016, Idaho will become the eighth state to recognize a law-abiding adult’s ability to possess a concealed handgun for self-defense without government-mandated permitting and fees.

    SB 1389 will positively affect law-abiding gun owners in the following ways:



    • ​SB 1389 ensures that the existing and long-standing concealed weapon license (CWL) exemption applicable “outside the limits or confines of any city” only protects the rights of law-abiding individuals.
    • ​SB 1389 exempts law-abiding Idahoans, who are twenty-one years of age or older, from having to obtain a CWL in order to carry a concealed handgun for self-defense within city limits.
    • ​SB 1389 provides a mechanism for well-trained, law-abiding individuals who are eighteen years of age or older to obtain a CWL.

    SB 1389 recognizes a law-abiding adult’s unconditional Right to Keep and Bear Arms for self-defense in the manner he or she chooses. Self-defense situations are difficult, if not impossible, to anticipate. Accordingly, a law-abiding adult’s right to defend themselves in such situations should not be conditioned by government-mandated time delays and taxes.

    I got that as an e-mail from the NRA-ILA, so that's why there's no source link.

    Montana also proposed similar legislation last year, but I think it was vetoed. One thing to consider is that if you travel to other states that have reciprocity with yours, you will still need a permit.

    SB 1389 provides a mechanism for well-trained, law-abiding individuals who are eighteen years of age or older to obtain a CWL.
    the existing and long-standing concealed weapon license (CWL) exemption applicable “outside the limits or confines of any city” only protects the rights of law-abiding individuals.
    exempts law-abiding Idahoans from having to obtain a CWL in order to carry a concealed handgun for self-defense within city limits.
    If an Idahoan is already allowed to carry concealed OUTSIDE a city and this bill now allows them to carry concealed INSIDE a city the why would any Idahoan seek a CWL? Who are they licensing and for what reason? Are non-Idahoans going to be required to have a CWL? With the license are permit holders going to be allowed to brandish their 'concealed' weapon? Or is the CWL now going to for the purposes of Idahoans who want to visit other states?

    A CWL helps your standing in self defense. It makes your chances of the law favoring you in a self defense case higher.

    Also with the CWL permit you can conceal carry in many other states.

    I hold an Idaho CWL, and plan to still renew it.
