Does anyone have the real story on OC when one holds a CCW in WV? I've been here 3 years, been carrying concelaed almost all the time, and would like to not have to worry about whether someone can see my pistola, particularly during warm weather.
I was at McDonalds in Hinton this past summer. My gun had slipped out from under my shirt. This stranger steps up to me and very indiscreetly asked whether I am a sworn LEO. I said no. He then asked whether I had a CCW. I said yes. He then asked whether I understood the concept of "concealment". Though I was tempted to tell him where he could jump off, I figured it was not worth the potential hassle of getting myself arrested on some silly technicality.
So, local ordinances aside, is it illegal to OC if you have a CCW as I have been told by more than one person here? I really enjoy OC but am in no humor to end up in the hoosegow on felony charges. Life holds enough trouble without heaping that atop it all.
Thanks.
