A Concealed Carry Law Expected to Pass in SD Would Be a Huge Step for Gun Rights

South Dakota gun rights supporters are saying newly-elected South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem gives them hope that additional gun rights laws will be passed.

A concealed carry with no permit bill has been vetoed multiple times by the previous governor, but some are pointing to Noem’s record as a sign that might not be the case if a similar bill was presented to her.

“There are a lot of Republicans that are very excited to have a conservative governor,” said Senator Lynne DiSanto. “I think under a new governor it’s very likely to pass.”

Other supporters of the Second Amendment, like Brandon Maddox who is the owner of Dakota Silencer, told KSFY that they are pleased a governor was elected who was open to other options.
