(BOZMAN DAILY CHRONICLE) Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte signed legislation on Thursday that will expand where gun owners may carry firearms.  House Bill 102 allows people to carry a concealed weapon without a permit in most public settings, including banks and bars. Those with a permit will be able to carry in state and local government offices, as well.
