I plan on going to one of the WMA this weekend to shoot some skeet. I am wondering what everyone interpritation is on this rule. I have emailed VA game dept. but have not got a response yet. I wish to carry my 1911 , but I would like to possibly open carry . I have a CHP and can carry concealed if they respond to my email against open carry. There rule says "it is illegal to [*]Have a loaded firearm or a firearm with an attached magazine from which all shells have not been removed in or on any vehicle or land conveyance or its attachments. You can have a loaded clip or magazine in the vehicle as long as it is not in or attached to the firearm, except for concealed weapons permit holders."Does this mean that I can carry my firearm holstered in plain sight since i have a CHP or must it be concealed? The rule says you only have to have a permit it doesnt say anything about the manner the firearm must be carried in.
