    Yeah - the ATF even GIVES them guns. No background check or anything.

      California, Illinois, New jersey, New York. Arizona is a constitutional carry, and I think it's the most gun-friendly state.

          The folks there appear to be a very pro-gun group of folks - it seems like a good number of people brings guns to work (leaving them in their cars of course). The work looks real interesting, too. :)

                Texas isn't even the most gun-friendly state.

                I think Vermont is considered the most gun friendly state. Don't know if it changed since, but at one time a VT driver's license was all you needed to purchase a gun.

                Schenectady? What am I doing in Schenectady?

                  Then you'd be surprised at how often it's NOT the case. As I've already stated, Texas ain't the most gun-friendly state in the union...

                  Your right, I am surprised. Michigan isn't as friendly either. You can carry with a permit, just don't shoot anybody.

                      Everyone has to fill out the background check form, but AZ is a constitutional carry state, meaning you don't need a license to carry openly OR concealed. If you can legally own a gun (pass the FBI background check), you can carry it - anytime.

                          Did a quick google and found this site crime.about.com[^] for Vermont. No FBI NICS, only a state background check. Only requirement listed there is Record of sale. There is a disclaimer though: Caution: This summary is meant for general purposes only. Firearm laws frequently change.

                                I't can't be as bad as some wine we bought in Bangkok - every bottle in the case was identical, but the contents varied from drinkable white through to paintstripper via gawd-knows-what-it-is-but-I'm-not-drinking-that.
