In some states it is illegal to take even one drink while carrying a firearm. If you want further info on carrying in places that serve alcohol check your state laws.
I'm not wrapping my head around this or something. The other day my son wanted to go to get some chicken wings so the family stopped by Jacks Place in Fallon (bar/pool tables etc) (that also serves food). I was OCing but I don't drink nor does the family (kids are grown).
I was looking at the information above from this link - http://www.handgunlaw.us/states/nevada.pdf - Page 8, and now I have the question of should I do it again if they call and want to meet for some chicken wings.
I believe from reading the info that since they serve food I am ok. Is that right?
What if I wanted a coke or something, could I sit at the bar if the table type atmosphere was not there?
I probably wouldn't since to me it would look like I was downing some Jack and coke to some or at least the perception of .... You understand.
Maybe I'm not putting 2+2 together and reading into it more.
Just a thought since I was cruising the net.
Thanks,
