I hate to be the thunderstorm that comes along and rains on everybody's parade, but I don't think the question has ever been challenged or ruled upon in the courts. The permit very clearly says "Concealed Handgun Permit". It does not say "handguns".
So, it depends on what rookie stops you, what this rookie charges you with, and what judge you land in front of. And more importantly, aconviction would depend onhow the judge interprets the law.
Remember now, we just had a Virginia judge claim online coursesare NOT satisfactory training in orderto obtain a CHP in the first place. Would this same judge say, "Sir, you have a permit for a concealed handgun, nobody said you could carry 12 firearms, I am going to find you guilty!"
Combine all of the above with the actual wording in the state code, and I quote..... "...D. Any person 21 years of age or older may apply in writing to the clerk of the circuit court of the county or city in which he resides, or if he is a member of the United States Armed Forces, the county or city in which he is domiciled, for a five-year permit to carry a concealed handgun...."
