Help With Va....

That is the date that laws take effect in Virginia. If the state legislators again approve, and the Governor just elected does what he has he will, it will be legal to carry concealed while being in establishments selling alcohol by the drink. Now you have go open, and you can drink.


The departing governor, Kaine, vetoed it the last time it came up. He moved on to be the Democratic National Chairman....

ONE reason he was ousted!

From what I am seeing on other forums, the "restaurant carry" has been passed, awaiting McDonald's signature now. Will be nice NOT to disarm to go eat. One place I go does NOT sell alcohol. but has their license so groups can drink when they come in. Have never been there when these groups are there, but still couldn't CC.

Why would you have disarmed? I thought you guys were allowed to OC before the law comes into effect.

[SteveB]

we do. I just don't usually OC any more. Don't go to that restaurant much any more either. Found one not too far away that has GREAT food (owner grows his own beef), good prices, and no ABC license. Got to the point that I don't like being around any drinking at all now. Not putting ANYBODY down that drinks, I just stay away from it.

I know this is an old post, but since the thread is still moving, I thought this should be addressed.

Actually, there are a few cities where there is a cap on magazine size. Get the gun laws guide for VA for specifics. I think Richmond is one of those cities. But the put it specific like no more than 20rds on concealed carry. etc...

VA has statewide preemption. Local laws of this nature are invalid.
