After doing a bit of research today, I went to the Municipal Library for Henrico County, also known as their Law Library in the County Courthouse. Not only do they have copies of the VA Code (as do many of the county libraries) they have older versions of the codes as well. What I liked was after you read a certain section of the code, there is applicable case law. I also found in the Municipal Library, a binder, that several lawyers in VA have put together called "Virginia Gun Laws." In it they have listed all of Virginia Gun Laws to make it easier for research purposes. I know a lot of this information is available online, but for me I'd much rather go find it in print and have all that information right there in front of me. I figure this is a great resource for us, and especially for anyone who ends up in an unfortunate legal situation. They also have a law librarian who is VERY knowledgeable (she knew what section of the code I was looking for just by me giving her the section number). Just wanted to let you all know!
