I just read a mini-update from VCDL (Virginia Citizen's Defense League) about the son of one of their members:
"A member's son is in hot water for open carrying in a national forest. In Virginia, only concealed carry with a valid CHP is allowed in a national forest. (Don't look at me, gun control never makes any sense.) We are watching how the case evolves. Details are scarce right now.
Looks like it may be time for VCDL to push to get this fixed to allow unlicensed open carry of a handgun as long as such handgun is not being used to hunt.
Carry in a national forest is controlled by the state, not the feds.
The code is in the Admin Code of Virginia: 4VAC15-40-60 (G provides the exemption for CHP holder to carry CONCEALED)."
(bolding is mine)
So... my question is: what are KY's laws regarding carry (OC or CC) in a National Forest? (Red River Gorge?)
Thanks!
