We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

the best way to be 100% is to read and understand the law. If the law says no one under 18 may carry then we can 100% assume that anyone 18 or older may carry. There are places you cannot carry im sure a few clicks away you can find those restrictions. The first leson I learned about OC......RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH. which im sure you have already done. Have fun.
I live in the Gloucester point/Yorktown area. So have you had any problems OCing under 21?

Cool I'm up in nova, and not really, I had a cluster with my school back in april(hadn't graduated high school yet) due to a misinformed school resource officer, other wise not really, just keep a smile on your face and your hand off of your pistol. Also buy a voice recorder it will help incase you ever get a dick cop.

No worries, over my spring break I open carried at the local Starbucks w/ my girl at the time, a couple of people I go to school with saw me,talked to about it, and then the next week in school they told the security guys that I open carried over the break, and I guess they thought that I brought my pistol to school so I was pulled out of class by the school resource officer frisked, interrogated about how I got the pistol, what make/model, where it was currently, then detained while they checked on the legalities of me carrying and how I got the pistol,

What happened with you? And yea it really is, I always laugh when I hear people say "oh he can't do that!" nice thing about open carry is that it educates people and helps desensitize the sheep

well i picked up a wasr a few months ago, and took it to my local gun shop (the owner is like my second father so im always there) to find some nice fitting mags and as i was putting it back in my truck a school bus from my school drove by and a bunch of people that knew me where on it. That night Facebook blew up about me having an ak, and the next day i walk in to school and cops put me in handcuffs and detained me for 4 hours ageist my will asking me how i got the gun and what i was planing on doing with it. Apparently someone told a friend that told a friend that told the school i was going to take it to school.I really wish my peers where better informed and mature,

so I dont really get a chance to get on here a lot lately but JESUS! While im still considerably young myself I am glad im not in school anymore! I agree with you guys people our age or aroung our age are dum dums. Im 26 so im sure things are different in highschool now days even though its only been 7 years. Anyways I love that you guys can go to war, smoke, be in or buy porn, and have guns. BUT WHAT EVER YOU DO YOU BETTER NOT DRINK! Rember your just kids after all. sometimes irony makes my head hurt.
Fun fact:
25% of alcohol sales is estimated to be consumed my legal minors. Thats right I watch the discovery channel.
