I would really like reciprocity with the states around us in CT especailly New York, RI, and Mass. I like to go camping but if I travel through Mass with any firearm at all wihtout first getting a travel permit I can be arrested for simply traveling. I mean I can drive for less than an hour in any direction and by crossing an imaginary line i can go from law-abiding citizen to a felon. Just by crossing that imaginary line does not mean that I have somehow lost my ability to properly conduct myself with a firearm.

But then again this just bring up my beleif that we need a national CCW.
