---Riley said that in another emergency situation, officers would check people on the street in possession of guns and will not take the weapons unless they have a criminal record, are mentally ill, or unable to prove they own the weapon.---
Total BS! How are you supposed to prove ownership unless it's a pistol you have a carry permit for?
Please clarify.Are you trying to say that there are states that issue concealed carry permits for specific guns? That would require that those guns be registered.
I thought in most places a concealed carry permit was just that ... and with it you could carry whatever you want that is a legal [note I did not say licensed] weapon, e.g. a sawed off shotgun would not qualify. What states require registration of guns?.
I am confused by your statement, what is a pistol you have a carry permit for?
I have a carry permit, I can carry whatever I want to.
What? I have one permit which allows me to carry concealed any weapon I own.
