Emerging Research into Concealed Carry Licensing

The current legal landscape regarding state concealed carry gun laws is changing rapidly. In 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Bruen v. New York State Pistol and Rifle Association that New York's law requiring a proper cause or special need to get a concealed carry permit was unconstitutional. Following that decision, policy makers in several states have reconsidered firearms carrying laws, with some removing permit requirements altogether.

During the webinar, researchers Daniel Webster, Sc.D. and Cass Crifasi, Ph.D. from The Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Violence Solutions discussed two new research studies about this changing policy landscape. The first, recently published in the American Journal of Epidemiology, explores the effects of states moving from "May" to "Shall" issue concealed carry permits. The second, recently published in the Criminology & Public Policy journal, further explores the effect of states moving from a "Shall" issue to a Permitless concealed carry.
