Constitutional carry

Constitutional carry refers to laws that allow individuals to carry a handgun without needing a special permit or license. These laws are based on the belief that the Second Amendment grants the right to bear arms without additional restrictions. Under constitutional carry, if a person is legally eligible to own a firearm, they can carry it openly or concealed, depending on the state's regulations. This approach aims to simplify firearm laws while respecting individual rights, but gun owners must still follow other relevant laws, such as those related to prohibited persons or carrying in certain places.
