Approve both concealed and open carry of hanguns...
 

Clear, concise approval of full carry (concealed and open) under Virginia law would bring State Forests into compliance with a formal opinion (08-043) published in September 2008 by the Virginia Attorney General. This would eliminate, across the Commonwealth, any doubt among management, field personnel, and facility "customers" respecting possession and carrying of handguns.
