can you carrier a hand gun in your truck?? What if you have a cwp??

 

Here we go again.

There is nothing about guns in the FMCSA regs.

However:

Most companies ban having firearms on the truck.

There are hundreds of gun laws in the USA. The only way you would be legal in all of them is to have the gun broken down, in a case, and stowed in an area of the truck not readily accessible by the driver or any passenger.

 

I'm a owner op with my own authority. I was just wondering about the laws becouse I cound not find anything in the FMCSA hand book. thxs

 

In GA. there was a bill ( and it was slated to pass ) that an employer could NOT ban an employee from bringing a gun on company porperty ( I think it said you had to keep it in the car??). ( Right to self protection ). The bill was to be voted on a day or two after the VA. Tech. shooting so they tabled it til later.

 

Here is some information that may help you. http://www.classadrivers.com/phpBB2/...ic.php?t=18630

A well armed society, is a polite society. Everyone should be armed to the teeth. Even then, you are underarmed compared to me.

 

Yeah, there were some ppl like that in Montana a few years ago like that.

Years ago I was going through a Main Battle Tank Transition Course in Boise, ID. My Battalion was changing from the M60 MBT to the M60A3. Not as good as the M1 Abrams, but not bad. Anyway, we we training out in the High Desert. We carried and used live rounds for the .30, .50 and Main Gun. We were told that if we came across some of the White Supremacist in the area we were to leave them strictly alone....they were better armed than we were! :shock:

 

When an employer or property owner bans the possession of a "dangerous weapon", what they are saying is that they especially do not want responsible, law abiding people to possess a gun there.

That is because thay already know a criminal isn't going to pay attention to their ban anyway.

So what that ban is meant to achieve is to prevent a law abiding person from being able to defend himself against a criminal attack. Now that is obsession with controlling people.
