Come January 1st -- a gun permit will no longer be necessary -- to legally carry a concealed firearm in Alabama.
Come January 1st — a gun permit will no longer be necessary — to legally carry a concealed firearm in Alabama. However, one sheriff says it might be a good idea to keep a valid a permit anyway.
“Many, many sheriffs, I would say 95% to 99% of the sheriffs were strictly opposed to this,” said Dallas Co. Sheriff Mike Granthum.“Well it’s just dangerous. Not only dangerous in my opinion to the public — but to my officers — to the officers safety,” he said. Granthum says although it won’t be required by Alabama law — it’s still a good idea to have a permit to carry a concealed weapon.
“If you travel to Florida or Georgia, they’re considered a reciprocal state. They will accept our permit. Now just because Alabama says you don’t have to have a permit — when you travel those states — if you don’t have a permit, you’re going to be a person forbidden to carry that gun without a permit. So, you will be charged.
