I was looking through the Nevada OC pamphlet (thank you Felid`Maximus for putting that together) as well as perusing the state forum and I see that it is mentioned frequently that loaded carry in the car (so long as it's not on your person) in Nevada is perfectly legal without a permit. I tried looking through the Nevada code and I can't seem to find any applicable code on the books that says so. Is this one of those cases where there is no law against it, so it is therefore legal (like your OC laws)?
Something that I've wondered about your concealed carry laws regarding "on your person" is when someone without a permit needs to transfer a pistol from a place of residence to a vehicle. It is my understanding that if it is even in a bag, perhaps even an opaque pistol case being carried, then it is concealed and thus a class C felony (seems awfully strict :shock: ) if you don't have a permit. Does this only apply to loaded pistols?
One last thing. I will be visiting your great state in the latter half of April and I would like to know if Nevada has any preemption laws or if local jurisdictions are allowed to restrict firearm carry as they see fit.
Edit:
The above has been answered to my satisfaction, but I have one last question on page 3.
