Published on August 18, 2015
Duration: 44:45

This episode of Gun Talk features Wade, owner of Precision Firearm in Baton Rouge, discussing a free firearms training program for women with restraining orders. The initiative was sparked by local violent crimes, highlighting the inadequacy of restraining orders alone. The program offers free training, firearms, and ammunition, filling up within 40 hours of announcement. Discussions also cover Louisiana's firearm laws regarding transport in vehicles and homes, the importance of gun rights advocacy, and the need for active participation in organizations like the NRA.

Quick Summary

In Louisiana, a concealed carry permit is not required to possess a loaded firearm in one's home or vehicle. This allows individuals to protect themselves within these spaces even before obtaining a permit, though formal training is still highly recommended for proficiency and safety.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Precision Firearm offering for women in need of self-defense training?

Precision Firearm in Baton Rouge is offering a free firearms training class specifically for women who have restraining orders against individuals. This initiative aims to provide practical self-defense skills beyond legal protections.

Are firearms permitted in homes and vehicles in Louisiana without a permit?

Yes, in Louisiana, you do not need a concealed carry permit to have a loaded firearm in your home or legally transported within your vehicle. Your vehicle is considered a constitutionally protected area.

How can individuals support gun rights organizations if they cannot donate large sums?

Even small contributions help. Donating the cost of a box of ammunition to organizations like the Crime Prevention Research Center or NRA can make a difference. Amazon Smile also allows a percentage of purchases to go to designated gun rights groups.

What is the significance of active participation in gun rights advocacy?

Active participation, whether through donations, joining organizations, or speaking out, is crucial to counter the influence of gun control advocates. A large, engaged group makes it significantly harder for restrictive legislation to pass.
