I would need to see more info on the bill before I can truely comment on it. If it simply says that another state must honor the resident permits of other states I would be more inclined to support it (not saying that I would support it as it is still a rather touchy state's rights issue). If it tries to set up national standards for training and force it onto all states then I'll instantly be against it.
Even though I see this as a states rights issue, I also see it as a potential step towards repairing the 2A that has been chipped away over the years (something that isn't going to get fixed over night even if all of the violations are unconstitutional). Kind of like saying that a state may infringe upon it's own citizens rights, but may not infringe upon the rights of those out of state; which can make it easier for people in the state to fight for their rights down the road.
