Jacobson<\/em> on Tuesday. The organization wants the justices to hear the case and rule that states must recognize carry permits issued elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"New Gun Survey Lands as SCOTUS Takes Up Major AR-15 Case\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/s2gIOmfwtlQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case involves Jeffrey M. Johnson Sr., a Georgia resident and long-haul truck driver. Johnson holds carry permits from Georgia and Florida. Minnesota does not recognize either one, however, so he must obtain a separate Minnesota permit before carrying there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Minnesota does issue permits to nonresidents. The problem, according to Johnson and SAF, is the additional time, travel, training and expense required to secure another license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Eighth Circuit <a href=\"https:\/\/law.justia.com\/cases\/federal\/appellate-courts\/ca8\/25-3036\/25-3036-2026-05-26.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"saf-scotus-out-of-state-carry-permits\" title=\"SAF Asks Supreme Court to End State-by-State Carry Permit Maze\">upheld Minnesota\u2019s system<\/a> in May. The court reasoned that Minnesota\u2019s reciprocity law does not restrict carrying by itself. Instead, it simply excuses people with certain recognized permits from completing Minnesota\u2019s application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because Johnson conceded that Minnesota may generally require a shall-issue permit, the court found that the state could require him to get one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-see-also-which-glock-slimline-should-you-carry-in-2026\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/new-glock-9mm-single-stack-glock-43-hands-on\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"saf-scotus-out-of-state-carry-permits\" title=\"SAF Asks Supreme Court to End State-by-State Carry Permit Maze\">Which Glock Slimline Should You Carry in 2026?<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SAF sees the issue differently. Its brief argues that the constitutional right to carry for self-defense does not end when someone crosses a state line. SAF also points to historical \u201ctraveler\u2019s exceptions,\u201d which sometimes gave visitors more freedom from concealed-carry restrictions than local residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe right to carry does not stop at state lines,\u201d said SAF Director of Legal Research and Education Kostas Moros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The brief also highlights the cost of navigating America\u2019s current permit patchwork. According to SAF, one couple spent more than $12,800 assembling permits that covered 46 states and Washington, D.C. The group says some states do not offer nonresident permits at all, while California permits can cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SAF was joined by the National Rifle Association, California Rifle and Pistol Association, Second Amendment Law Center, Minnesota Gun Owners Caucus and Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Supreme Court <a href=\"https:\/\/www.supremecourt.gov\/search.aspx?filename=%2Fdocket%2Fdocketfiles%2Fhtml%2Fpublic%2F26-255.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"saf-scotus-out-of-state-carry-permits\" title=\"SAF Asks Supreme Court to End State-by-State Carry Permit Maze\">docketed Johnson\u2019s petition<\/a> on Aug. 27. The justices have not yet agreed to hear the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If they do, the dispute could answer a question the public&#8217;s wrestled with for years: Should a constitutionally protected right require a wallet full of permits before it can cross state lines?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The answer is obvious to me.
