House Majority Leader Steve Montenegro (R-Litchfield Park) has proposed legislation to provide a tax credit to those that get their concealed carry weapons permit.<\/p>\n<p>House Bill 2494 would give Arizonans a tax credit of up to $80 to cover the cost of a permit and training.<\/p>\n<p>Although Arizona is a \u201cconstitutional carry\u201d state, the law currently allows adults over the age of 21 to carry a firearm openly or concealed without a permit, one needs a license to bring one&#8217;s weapon into a place where alcohol is served. Another advantage to having a CCW is that Arizona\u2019s license is also honored by many other states. To date, about 251,000 Arizonians have obtained a CCW.<\/p>\n<p>However, those current permit-holders would be ineligible for the credit.<\/p>\n<p>The President of Prescott Gun Club, Don Grier, thinks the bill is a good idea, \u201cif it&#8217;s an incentive to go out and get properly trained.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Grier, who does have a CCW, understands why some might be against the idea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s an issue of they don&#8217;t want it,\u201d he told <a href=\"https:\/\/dcourier.com\/main.asp?SectionID=1&amp;SubSectionID=1&amp;ArticleID=154136\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"arizona-tax-credit-concealed-carry\" title=\"Tax Credit for Concealed Carry Permits?

There are so many different types of programs you can take in order to apply for a CCW &#8211; one of them is a hunter safety course.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Her husband, Matt Seibert, agrees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe just lost reciprocity with West Virginia because of the fact that there&#8217;s no consistency in what&#8217;s being taught.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Montenegro, who does have a CCW permit, also says safety is the main priority.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s promoting safety,\u201d he said. \u201cLaw enforcement has told us time and time again that the first line of defense are those that carry CCW permits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to promote people being educated in having CCW permits,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe value those that are able to take these classes and help us with safety.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The cost of this tax credit? While unlikely, as many as 3\u00a0million residents could receive the credit after taking a training course, to the tune of $240 million. But Montenegro says that cost is not an issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe want to promote a safe Arizona. And we can&#8217;t put a price on any lives as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you lived in Arizona, would you support a tax credit for concealed carry permits?
