    Is Montana still a very conservative state?  Isn't it one of the MOST gun friendly states? I was also wondering about Wyoming, Colorado and Arizona.

Depends on how you define "conservative."  What are your "requirements."

Yes it is but Missoula is Montana's Berkely though. Senators are Burns(R) and Baucus(D),
Lots of Kali folk ruining it. I lived in the Flathead Valley. EXCELLENT place to live.
Also you will see lots of Canadian and Washington plates there too
Unfortunately MT has been discovered for some time now

In Montana, Gun Control is using both hands to hold a side arm.

Wyoming is sooooo conservative they beat faggots to death!!!   But seriously, I worked there for 8 years and I still cherrish the sight of multiple rifles hanging on gun racks. They have CCW, no waiting time for gun purchases... I don't really know what else a guy could ask for.  I remember pulling into a buddies car wash that his family owned right on the main drag in Buffalo Wyoming.  He pulled out his new rifle & scope setup and and was aiming it across the street as the Deputy Sheriff rolled by... he looked over as he passed and kept right on driving, even though the muzzle was pointed right at him.  I called him an idiot... but nothing happend.

Technically, I believe Utah followed closely by Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. Every once in a while though even the most conservative state throws you a curve.

The Brady Bunch rates Montana as an "F", so I guess we're still doing okay.  On the other hand, we do have a Dem governor, and the legislature pushed through an open container ban and prohibited smoking in bars this year.  The no-smoking bill has an exception for businesses preferring that clientele that allows smoky bars until 2009, as long as children under the age of 18 are not permitted on the premises.

Colorado, in my limited experience is pretty damn good....however, I moved from PROC, so anything is better.  But seriously, the gun laws are very good.  The problem is, that there are too many Californian's moving here.  I don't consider myself in that group because I don't want to turn this state on its head like some of them will want to.  

Here's hoping it stays like it is.

Texas convervative?  I think you are mistaken Gov. Richards.  What about DFW, Houston, and San Antonio.  Utah ranks No. 1 and Idaho No. 2.

What about them?

You can buy 3.2% beer pretty much anywhere.

Beer >3.2%, wine, and spirits you have to buy from the state liquor store.  They have a monopoly on it (unless you are military/retired/dependant and have access to a class VI store).

IRONY=Deeply religious state like Utah in the Liquor business.....who'da thunk it.

If you are dining out and want a drink with your meal, it depends on what type of liquor license the joint has.  Most places can serve beer and wine no problem.  Hard liquor is more difficult to find since that is a different more "restrictive" liscence.

Their liquor laws there were a non-issue with me since I had a military class IV store close by.

Besides that, I still think Utah has better access to liquor than some of those dry counties in the deep south.

If your concern is gunlaws go to the NRA website and you'll find a place on there somewhere, probably under NRA-ILA that gives a Cliff's Notes version of each states gunlaws.
