CCW – Concealed Carry 50 State Guide Reference App Review (iOS, $1.99)

Description

This application is about empowering the CCW (concealed or open carry permit) holder (or anyone who wishes to lawfully transport a firearm in any state.) It gives you the direct information that you need to follow the maze of arcane, complicated, and dissimilar laws in each state and in each situation. It provides all this information with an easy-to-use User Interface.

UNIQUE: This application comes with a convenient map, useful in planning a trip. Choose (and save) your current permit or permits (both Resident and Non-Resident) to see which states recognize YOUR permits. Shows a map (and list) of States in which YOU can legally carry. See, at a glance, states in which to plan your next vacation, or plan your interstate-travel to avoid locations where you cannot carry. Type in & save details and notes for each permit.

This application puts all the power in your hands. You can easily access and review the relevant firearm laws and prohibitions for every state. This app shows you the actual laws, so you do not have to rely on someone else's interpretation. Find the prohibited locations, transportation rules, permit process, and more for every state! Also provides direct links to the laws themselves, so you can research any open questions. It includes the pertinent federal laws. For specific locations (such as restaurants serving alcohol), see the quick allowed status, as well as click for details and laws. Also includes "duty to notify" laws for each state(when available) for contact with a police officer, such as a traffic stop. The key information does not require internet connection; it's located right on your phone!

The app now includes updated to the law without having to download a new version. Every time the app is updated with new or modified laws, it will prompt you to download the latest (usually takes only a few seconds). These changes stay with the app, and are available offline once downloaded! All information within the app (except "nearby location search") is stored locally on your computer, and can be used whether or not you have internet access.

Review information direct from the state governments and law enforcement authorities: State Statutes for each state, Direct Reciprocity Information, CCW Application forms, State FAQs, and more. This compiled list of "best" links lets you directly see the details.

Interactive state maps show any scenario: All the states recognizing a specific permit, all the permits that a specific state allows, state map of type of permit available, map of states recognizing your permits. Click on any state to see the details for that state!

Find and contact (one touch dialing, mapping to office, email, and URL) local authorities in each state.

Find local points of interest, anywhere in the country! (training, ranges, gun shops, repair)

Automatically pull up the laws for your current state location based on GPS.

Ability to customize and save your preferences (custom or standard background pictures, map display preference, etc...). Save your list of permits, for easy recognition. Allows you to store your permit number, expiration and notes as well.

Has iPad-specific views and display on this universal iPhone / iPad app.

• Good app.

  by Soothsayer7400

  I like this app. I feel it's up to date if I question something I question a LEO buddy and this app hasn't failed me yet. It's updated 2 times since I have downloaded it this year just wish they would inter grade their other app of business that ban guns but all in all it serves it's purpose.

• CCW-Concealed Carry 50 State Review

  by Piginaswamp

  I especially like the inclusion of the actual state statues rather than someone else's summary or interpretation of the law. It allows me to read what the law is not what someone tells me it is.

• Great App!

  by Pastor Tebow

  I love this CCW app. It is such a wonderful resource for those who carry on a regular basis. They keep information current. I was thrilled to see that they updated a recent change in the reciprocity map including GA for WV.

• Best $.99 app of you CC!

  by Clay4

  I find it hard to believe this app is only $.99! They are constantly updating it with new info as soon as it comes out. If you CC in any state, you'd be crazy to not but this app. It allows you to put in your resident and any non-resident states. It tells you if you have to declare if stopped and more....everything you would want to know all at your finger tips. Do yourself a favor and buy it, you won't regreat it.

• Reliable

  by borinkano

  Great app! Always staying on top of things. Constant updates for the latest info for all 50 states. A must for CWP carriers.

• Home Inspection

  by DaveB1225

  Love this App. If you travel, it gives to a quick way to know the rules of where you are and where you are going.

• Great app

  by Free bush

  Love this app. It is the best one of its kind out there.

• Great app

  by mcchockey9

  App works great & as a gun owner is very handy. I travel & will be able to know exactly what states accept my permit.

• Great for GSSF and travel.

  by GguyD

  I am a NRA instructor and a GSSF competitor (GLOCK). Not only do I use this for my personal travels to GSSF shoots, I also keep my former students updated via email just as a perk service to them. I think that this is a great app and have only spot checked it for accuracy and it has been right on. I truly believe that this app is a great service to those of us who want to be legal at all times. A big thanks to all involved in it's creation and updating!

• Must have when traveling

  by Jplunkee

  I've taken the time to compare the laws posted on this app and they are very consistent with the current laws. Good job

• Great app, know where and how I can carry.

  by missydog2

  Makes me more comfortable knowing the laws when traveling. Great job!

• Like better than legal heat

  by P238

  Easier to use, better graphics, no constant "updating from server" messages. Also like the larger fonts used.

• Love this app!

  by 994839

  This is a most have app for any gun owner. Very accurate information and stays updated constantly according to changing state laws. Really Comes In handy when I travel outside of my home state.

• CCW laws

  by Clayton C.

  Very useful information

• Gun owner

  by Weride1947

  Hands down the best site for RVrs. Lists states,conditions and restrictions ,and updates regularly.

• Great! No problems

  by Doughnizzler

  Constantly updates the laws and is very easy to use , shows your permits for the US and whether you can or can't carry depending on the licenses you have. Great !

• Great CCW App

  by Swisherkj

  This is the best CCW app I have used. Updated several times this year already. Updates were accurate for my home state of Texas. Used for tripe to 5 other states this summer. I trust the information on this app.

• Great app

  by Budman123

  Updated often with useful info. Easy to navigate and find answers to questions.

• Love it!

  by Steve 88

  I have a CCW license in my own state, but that only gave me 27 states. I easily looked up the states that offer non-resident permits and found the one state that helps me carry in the states that I visit often. No license combination gives you the right to carry in all 50 states. Until then, we have to deal with piecemeal legislation all across the USA. Welcome aboard Illinois! You are number 50 to recognize the US Constitution! This app is updated frequently and if you submit a question, they respond very quickly!

• I like the app

  by BluesMan56

  I like anything that works to make our carry habit more enjoyable nice job

• Needs to be updated

  by Bynuimonvt114

  This app is great for ccw permit holders.

• States not up-to-date

  by Kwyzz

  Don't waste your money - Not up to date.

• CCW

  by Toobusy3

  Good app

• Awesome

  by Gggddfhugftg

  Get this app

• Wouldn't leave home without it!

  by cws432

  Easy to navigate and constantly updated. With gun laws changing daily and every state having different laws this app is a must have.

• Great app!

  by GEORGE REICH

  Easy to use easy to understand. This one of the best reasons to own an iPhone. Thanks for doing it and for only $0.99. It's a real deal

• Best CCW info app

  by Solidus09

  This app is updated by the developers often. It is critical to invested citizens who conceal carry that they have up to date knowledge of laws and statutes governing the practice. This app is updated as often as the law changes in all states, including reciprocity of CCW permits. App interface is ugly, but easily navigated.

• Best CCW App...I've tried others

  by Louis S^

  I have tried three other similar apps and they don't even come close to this in amount of info you get. Best thing about this app is the prompt updates, with all the rapidly changing state laws, esp Illinois, this app stays on top of law changes (I am still waiting for the other apps to update where CCW updated a week ago!) Love all the features, highly recommended!

• Great app!

  by Sgpartsman

  Great app, works very well

• Very poor app

  by Tallyho fla

  As a ccw holder I have been using this app now for several weeks. I line to check other areas or establishments to be on the safe side if the are ok to carry in. I have yet to gat the app to either find me or locations near me. I guess I will try another app for ccw guidance. .
