House Bill 2106, sponsored by State Delegate Charles Carrico (R-5), repeals authority for localities to require fingerprints for initial Right-to-Carry permit applicants;

 

House Bill 2308, also sponsored by State Delegate Scott Lingamfelter, provides that counties may adopt model hunting regulations as provided by the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF); and

 

House Bill 2547, also sponsored by Delegate Carrico, clarifies that localities may not regulate possession of firearms on public roadways, except for the purposes of hunting.
