Dammit, now I'm confused. Thought the VA issue was about state forests?Will have to re-read the other thread.

the dept of conserv reg affects more than state parks - other lands including nat forests - but the big loophole to allow open carry is when/where hunting is allowed - the text does not say you do not have to be hunting.

We hope the gov orders reg chnages soon - till then OC in the nat parks of Va.
All of this is exactly and precisely why Governor Bob needs to fix this at the earliest possible time - like yesterday?

The confusion will only contribute to putting an otherwise honest citizen on the wrong side of the law.

Do the right thing Governor Bob and be a man of your word.

Yata hey
