Kentucky: Bill to allow temporary concealed carry for domestic violence victims

 

 “I know of instances where people have owned and possessed a gun but had to wait up to 90 days to receive a permit from the state” says Sen Jared Carpenter, sponsor of SB106

Common sense re-surfaces.

A Kentucky bill that would grant victims of domestic violence a temporary concealed carry permit passed the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday and now heads to the floor for a second reading.
Senate Bill 106 would allow a person protected by an emergency protective order or a domestic violence order to carry, if authorized by the issuing court, a concealed deadly weapon for a 90-day period. Although the bill would fast track the process, those who are granted the short-term status must meet the same requirements as those who obtain a standard carry permit.
