U.S.A. -(AmmoLand.com)- Yesterday, Governor Jim Justice signed Senate Bill 458 into law. It prohibits the state, government officials and agencies, or local governments, from restricting the lawful carrying, sale, or use of firearms and ammunition during states of emergency and also prevents them from closing gun stores and shooting ranges, unless that restriction applies equally to all businesses. This joins two other NRA-backed, pro-gun bills that Gov. Justice has signed so far this year.
NRA thanks Gov. Justice for signing SB 458. Please stay tuned to www.nraila.org and your email inbox for further updates.
