Yesterday, the Senate Judiciary Committee voted in favor of House Bill 344, which allows an individual to carry a loaded firearm on an Off-Highway Recreation Vehicle (OHRV) or snowmobile. Thanks to your strong support, this important legislation will advance to the full Senate for consideration this session. The Senate Judiciary Committee also voted to re-refer House Bill 307 back to committee to continue working on the bill over the coming months.  Please contact your State Senator and ask them to SUPPORT House Bill 334!

House Bill 334: “ATV Carry” – Allows the carry of a loaded firearm on an Off-Highway Recreation Vehicle (OHRV) or snowmobile. HB 334 also helps to clean up the law from when Permitless Carry was passed and a snowmobile prohibition remained.  If you can carry a gun in your vehicle, or on your person, you shouldn’t have to surrender your right to self-defense simply because you’re operating a snowmobile.

House Bill 307: Over recent years, numerous local governments have attempted to enact gun control ordinances in violation of the current state firearms preemption law, putting law-abiding gun owners at risk. This piece of legislation aims at strengthening New Hampshire’s preemption law to protect New Hampshire gun owners. Further, HB 307 allows anyone adversely impacted by an ordinance or regulation to file suit against the county, city, town or government entity that enacted the violation (after notice is given).

Again, please contact your State Senator and ask them to SUPPORT House Bill 334!  Stay-tuned to NRA-ILA Alerts for more information on when House Bill 307 gets scheduled for consideration.
