We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

How many can you carry?
A question was recently brought up about the VA CHP stating "Permit to carry a concealed handgun". Is that meant to interpret that only one handgun may be concealed or may be carried? Does the fact that it is nowhere stated under Virginia law(that I'm aware of) nullify the question? I... -

Military Aviation Museum in Virginia Beach *UPDATE* Hello, there is a WWI air show at the Military Aviation Museum in the Pungo area of Virginia Beach on Sept 21-23. Has anyone OC'd there? I found one post of someone doing so successfully in the 'OC in Hampton Roads' thread but it was a few... -
Why are we knocking the CHP?
I know some of it may be humor. Some of it is a friendly reminder. But I am continually reading posts giving discussions about CHP's a difficult time. I understand that the name of the forum is Opencarry.org. But everyone else has to understand that CHP's allow individuals to better exercise... -
Your rights after a self defense situation?
If you have to defend yourself/family while in your place of residence or on your property, what rights do you still have as far as them searching your residence? Can they search your (gun)safe? Force you to unlock it? It makes sense that they will search your residence as it is a crime scene... -

Has anyone OC'd there before? I've heard great things about their 'contents'. I have been meaning to go but do not desire to remain defenseless. I have not been able to obtain any info thus far. Thanks! -

Hello, There have been a few events at the Joel C. Bradshaw Fairgrounds (aka Heritage Park) in Isle of Wight county, including the Truck and Tractor Pull on Saturday the 9th, that I wish to attend and OC. Has anyone carried there before? I couldn't find much information on the 'net on whether... -
Carrying at gun shows?
imported post I've heard a few instances of people carrying at gun shows but also heard that they unload and zip tie your firearm. What is/isn't allowed? Open, concealed, shopper, attendant behind counter? Do they have to be unloaded/get zip tied. I tried searching but came up empty handed...
