Section 3Any citizen of another region with which the Pacific region does not have a reciprocity agreement, may apply for a conceal carry license in the Pacific region. All rules for Pacific citizens regarding these licenses shall apply.
Section 4Any person who has been convicted of a violent crime or robbery may not receive a license unless they have commited no crimes above a misdemeanor for five years in a row after having served their sentence and

Section 5The cost of application and renewal of a license shall be $50. This money will go to maintaining the infrastructure to carry out applications and to pay for FBI background checks.
Section 6Concealed carry of handguns may be disallowed in government owned buildings, including but not limited to court houses and schools. The policy for each building or building type may be determined by the government responsible for the building, be it federal, regional, state, or local.
Section 7Private property owners may disallow concealed carry on their own property.
