J. Scott Kappas, Esq.

     Scott Kappas is an attorney in private practice in Covington, Kentucky.  He has written several academic studies on the Second Amendment including "The Right Most Valued by Freemen: The Origins and Historical Development of the Citizen's Right to Keep and Bear Arms" which was a winner in a legal writing competition sponsored by the National Rifle Association.  Along with his law practice, he operates a Class III firearms business and is active in the political fight to preserve the citizen's right to keep and bear arms.
 
     Mr. Kappas regularly appears on statewide broadcasts of well known public affairs programs such as "Kentucky Tonight" where he defends gun owners' rights and forcefully advocates the expansion of the citizens right to carry firearms for self-defense.  He is presently on the Board of Directors for the Kentucky Firearms Foundation (KFFI) as well as a life member of the National Rifle Association.  He is a member in good standing of the Kentucky Bar Association and is currently licensed to practice in both the federal and state courts of Kentucky.  The "Traveler's Guide" was inspired by Mr. Kappas' own need to have a concise, yet accurate, summation of state transport and carry laws to reference during his vacation travels across America.
