Since many states issue non-resident permits and require a background check on those non-residents, might the numbers of background checks include those of non-residents and skew the count? Utah (especially) has reciprocity with many states and issues non-resident licenses that are recognized by those states.

I would never have guessed that. Having lived there for 15 years I know Texans are proud of their guns. I would have thought the top ten at least. Where on the list is OK?

I see we managed to grab onto a top ten...barely. As far as Texas goes- Why, they a bunch of outlaws that'll carry with or without a permit.

Btw, are there any "open carry" states? Arkansas had a brave senator try to get a law allowing that permit free last session, but the gun nazis over-rode him...

Washington State has no law prohibiting open carry, although restrictions apply to school grounds, taverns and public buildings.

Hey, I thought the list would include all 57 states??!!
