Going on a hike soon to Kisatchie National Forest and of course I am going to take my .40 S&W. But what are the laws of OC at a national forest? I've tried googling, etc. but that is tiresome. Any help from the trusted experts would be awesome so we can enjoy our hike in peace...

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.

National forests fall under the U.S. Forest Service (Department of Agriculture), unlike national parks (Department of the Interior) or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Department of Defense). The Forest Service assimilates the gun laws of whatever state they're located in.
In other words, the OC rules in Kisatchie National Forest are the same as they are anywhere else in Louisiana. "Federal facilities", meaning buildings or portions of buildings where federal employees work, are off limits. If any of the waterways or lakes there are controlled by the Corps of Engineers, then their rules apply for that property.
