Instant frequent updates to the firearm laws! When new or modified laws are available, it prompts you to download the latest (usually takes only a few seconds). These changes stay with the app and are available offline once downloaded! Auto-update option available.

Compiled list of links to review information directly from the state governments & law enforcement authorities: State Statutes for each state, direct Reciprocity Information, CCW Application forms, State FAQs, & more.

    This app is well designed and functions well with my android phone. I would have given this a 5 star rating had this app also had the actual RCW and latest gun law I 524 as I live in Washington state.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Handy and Up-to-Date
    Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2013
    What a great way to have this info with you at all times--right on your Android! Recent changes in laws/situations (ex: Fed gov shutdown of parks, etc. during Washington standoff on budget and changes in NC rules) are right where they need to be and listed almost instantaneously. Versatilty of program to research info and locales is great. Several ways to display and search for specifics. My only qualm is related to my location. We are on the border between two states in a mountain region, and the program shows my location in GA about 1/2 mile away from where we actually live in NC. May be due to cell towers the phone is picking up, so be careful if you live near state lines or are crossing such borders during travel.

    essentially, I paid $2 to find out which states my ccw permit is valid in. I did that for free online. Whoop.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Permissions
    Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2019
    Initiate a phone call without going through the dialer... Who does this app legitimately need to call? Too many people ignore the permissions apps request & developers put in anything they want; that's a simple way to get malware on a phone, either intentionally or by someone who just hacks an app that already has the permissions the hacker needs. If we could trust the app developers (generally speaking, not specifically just these developers) they'd only be requesting the minimum permissions for their app to operate & not requiring users to accept unnecessary permissions just to use an app. Can't recommend these intrusions into our privacy and risks to our devices' security.

    5.0 out of 5 stars AWESOME APP!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2013
    packed full of information. Has all the inforamtion you need. I went to the gun show about a week ago and they were selling books for $12 that you could buy of all the 50 states and the CCW laws. It was super thick and nothing that you would EVER want to carry around. This is super nice. I have all the information I need right on my kindle and I can refer to it any time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Have Gun (and phone) Will Travel
    Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2014
    My favorite feature is you can select the various CCWs you hold and the app will apply reciprocity rules. The output is a map of the United States with green representing the states in which your permit(s) are recognized and red representing the states in which your permit(s) are not. It also has good detail on each state and the laws, rules... governing CCW for that area. The "Location" feature that is supposed to help you find shooting ranges, gun stores, training... is useless and better done on a Google search on the internet.
