My choice would be between Vermont and Arizona, but the fact that one is way too hot and the other is damn near in Canada is holding me back

I'm surprised we haven't heard from the three "don't need a permit states": AK, AZ, and VT.
Actually the state I'd be in is the state of the elite. Apparently, if you are a member of the elite class, none of the gun laws apply to you.
I'm content where I liven rural Iowa. However just for fun I'd say Alaska, Montana, Utah, or South Dakota. I'd also add Arizona but I don't like heat.
I live in "Gun Utopia" already so I would have to chose Alaska!
I love the cold and snow!

How about TN? Their permit is honored in 39 states! That would be nice!
There's a downside to living in a state that doesn't issue permits - it means it's impossible to be legal carrying a firearm on your person as you drive across most towns because of the federal gun free school zone law. In a sense there's less freedom in Vermont than most other states because of that. I believe AK issues permits if you ask, I don't know about AZ ...I'm surprised we haven't heard from the three "don't need a permit states": AK, AZ, and VT.

I'm not here to argue, or talk about state laws, or defend the federal law, I merely stated a truth - that in a state like VT it's not possible to cross most towns with a firearm on your person legally because of the federal law you claim is illegal: 18 U.S.C. § 922(q). Have fun depleting your bank accounts paying a lawyer to defend your belief a federal law is illegal. BTW, if you pissed off a local cop, and he's aware you violated 18 U.S.C. § 922(q), he *could* hold you for the feds. And let you sweat as you ponder whether or not the the feds will press it. And yes, I do live in Vermont, where most of us aren't so quick to deploy the nasty "What planet do you reside on" crap. Cheers.What planet do you reside on?! I carry, as I see fit, through any town and or passed any school with ZERO problems. Law enforcement has already stated that they have no desire to enforce the Feds illegal and unconstitutional 1000 ft school rule.
You obviously DONT live in Vermont. No city, charter, township etc can pass laws restricting firearms that would be considered more restrictive than our state constitution... Period.
That means you can't do squat (and Burlington has tried, Rutland has tried as well as other municipalities) and ALL of their BS "feel good" legislation has been struck down. Period!
2295. Authority of municipal and county governments to regulate firearms, ammunition, hunting, fishing and trapping
Except as otherwise provided by law, no town, city or incorporated village, by ordinance, resolution or other enactment, shall directly regulate hunting, fishing and trapping or the possession, ownership, transportation, transfer, sale, purchase, carrying, licensing or registration of traps, firearms, ammunition or components of firearms or ammunition. This section shall not limit the powers conferred upon a town, city or incorporated village under section 2291(8) of this title. The provisions of this section shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of a municipal charter
(8) To regulate or prohibit the use or discharge, but not possession of, firearms within the municipality or specified portions thereof, provided that an ordinance adopted under this subdivision shall be consistent with section 2295 of this title and shall not prohibit, reduce, or limit discharge at any existing sport shooting range, as that term is defined in 10 V.S.A. § 5227.

I haven't heard of anyone being charged only for a breach of this law ...

I haven't either - but if something happened where you needed to defend yourself within one of their "zones", you'd might be a bit nervous as they decided what to do. I'd rather not have that vulnerability at all. It's maddening that they didn't word the law so that any state's permit would afford you immunity from the school zone law. It's more madding that they even have the damn law.
PS - I'm no law scholar either
