Regarding these supposed old wives tales, I don't think anyone going to an organized handgun shooting competition would have any idea that they could just drive across the Boarder with an unpermitted handgun. Those folks are totally up to date on getting permits beforehand. The only time I have ever competed with a short barrel revolver was a military exercise, shooting competitions normally involve specially designed handguns and do not look anything like what you will find in a gun shop.

Why not just leave it at handguns are not permitted. All you're doing is clouding the issue.

Okay, now all that want can list their 9,852,783 exceptions to what I have said can go ahead.

It's much more than that. If you are going to quote statutes and specifically what is legal and what is illegal, accuracy is paramount.

Being dismissive of this need for accuracy- especially where very serious legal consequences are involved- is not very responsible, regardless of your personal political views on the subject.
