Without that permit, they would not be able to [legally] purchase a gun (and the background check would of course bar him from a purchase). If a non-CCW holder commits a crime, then that should show up on his background check and he will not be able to [legally] buy a gun. The point is, there is no difference in performing a background check a hundred times or performing it once if the individual has never committed any crimes. If the person has a CCW license and was convicted of a crime, the permit can obviously be taken away.

So a CCW holder won’t commit any crimes between the time they receive their permit and the time it expires?

If they do, I hope that the issuing authority is notified and revokes the permit.

Why should CCW holders be treated differently than other peasants? I thought we were all equal before the law?
