Handguns in CMV
 
Can someone please cite the regulation not permitting a concealed or open carry weapon in a CMV. Thanks.

There's no federal regulation against it. However, you have to have permits for each and every location that you'll be travelling through for the handgun. Also, some locations flat out deny any handgun permits, so you're screwed if you get caught with one in those locations.

Also, the carrier you drive for have their own rules that you must follow. If they say no weapons, it's as simple as that - no weapons.

That's what I thought. Thanks.

Well,

What they dont know dont hurt'em!

Having a small glock or kimber would be hard to find!

Indeed, sparks...would be very hard to find...

Which would make that felony weapons charge you incur if they DO find it suck that much more!:cry:

On edit: wikipedia has a pretty good page on state by state gun laws. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_law...ates_(by_state)

Looks like the vast majority of states wouldn't give you a hard time about it...but I'm sure there are places that would.....

31 states recognize a Ut. permit and most of the rest honor a Fl. permit(except NY) I have a NY and in the process of getting the out of state UT permit

38 states recognize a NC permit, I hear its one of the best to have.
