Minnesota: Your Help Needed to Expand Self-Defense Rights for Minnesota and Texas Carry Permit Holders

June 2, 2016 by TOR Poobah

Officials in the Lone Star State are fully prepared and eager to negotiate a reciprocal agreement with Minnesota’s Department of Public Safety to allow each state’s valid concealed carry permit holders to carry in the other state while traveling, provided they comply with all respective state laws.  However, Texas negotiators have repeatedly been told by Minnesota state officials that any reciprocity deal is off the table solely because Texas issues licenses to carry to military personnel and honorably discharged veterans between the ages of 18-21.  Apparently, men and women who have proudly served our country, passed a state and federal records check, completed a firearms training course and been issued a license to carry by the Texas Department of Public Safety are what’s standing in the way of Minnesota permit holders being able to carry in Texas and vice-versa.
