Iowa's Constitutional Carry and how it affects you.
The big question, should you still get your Iowa permit?
The answer: YES!!!
The answer: YES!!!
I'm getting lots of questions about if a person should still get or renew their Iowa permit when Iowa has "Constitutional Carry". Well there are a LOT of reasons. Here's a list from the Iowa Department of Public Safety on why you should get it.
Allows Iowans to carry in states with permit reciprocity while traveling.
May prevent potential delays resulting from a delayed NICS check when purchasing from a FFL.
May clarify any questions an individual has regarding their eligibility to carry or possess firearms.
May prevent legal issues associated with a person coming within 1,000 feet of the grounds of a public, parochial, or private school without a state issued permit in violation of the Gun Free School Zones Act, 18 USC § 921(a)(25) and 18 USC § 922(q)(2).
