Alabama bill would require permits for assault weapons

A prefilled bill with the Alabama Legislature could change a gun law in Alabama.

This bill would require a person to have a permit to carry an assault weapon on them or in a vehicle.In 2023, Alabama became a permitless state after the Permit-less Carry Law went into effect, which means Alabamians don’t need a permit to carry a firearm.

”And we know that the state of Alabama likes to protect the Second Amendment, and so does the NAACP, but the Second Amendment is not meant for assault-style weapons,” said Simelton. “Everyone cannot carry an assault weapon without a permit. I mean, it should be required to have a permit.” He also said he doesn’t see the legislature reversing the permit-less carry law, but he expressed his thoughts if the new bill were to pass.
