I concur with your recommendation.In my county, Jackson, you can renew your CCW at the drivers license office. On another note, it appears since the races were so razor close, this may be the last election we get pro-gunners in there. I would highly recommend within the next two years stocking up on a lifetimes (and your families lifetime) supply of whatever you need guns and ammo wise.
I also urge to have alternative weapons that may initially escape being forbidden. Hang on to your lever guns and pump action shotguns. Hang on to your 38s and also speed reloaders. I have also kept my SKS and garand rifles. They will most likely first go after large capacity magazine rifles like the AK and AR first and also extended magazines for semiauto pistols.
