Because I have friends and family there! North Providence isn't bad.

There are a few of us RIers here.  Where do you guys shoot?  I'm a member at Manville Sportsmans Club.  Tim I've been meaning to make it to one of your shoots but my weekends have been pretty full lately.  I'm actually in the process of purchasing some land in Vermont for a BO location and eventual farm/home.

Where in VT are you looking? Most of my old crew from down here lives in the Royalton/Sharon area now.....I go up as often as I can.

Hope you can come to the October shoot!

The land is in Brookfield, just south of Barre.  It's nice because it's only a 3 hour drive from RI but still north enough to get out of the way of most of the 2nd home people from Boston.

Stupid question - about a year ago, someone sued the RI atty. General for a carry permit, and won.

RI courts set a recent precedent.  

Does anyone know the name of the case?

Thanks

It was a quasi-win, in that the AG's office was forced to institute a review/appeal procedure of its decisions, and also that the AG's office had to document/substantiate their refusal.
The RI Supreme Court also re-affirmed the individual nature of the RKBA.
Unfortunately, the decision went no further.

Don't recall the name of the case, unfortunately.

We will eventually be a shall-issue state, albeit one slice of the loaf at a time.

I grew up in Pawtucket, but loved Point Judith, Misquamicut, Narragansett, and South County.  Worked in West Warwick, family still in Warwick, Cumberland, and Pawtucket.   Was in West Warwick for the Blizzard of 78.  Heck, I still remember the Rocky Hill Fair and Custy's.  

Haven't lived there in 25 years and I still hate driving I95 through Providence.
