    yet another "new to AZ" question, thank you for being patient.

    I live in La Paz County, very rural, everyone has guns but no one has real information. I'm extremely wary of taking advice from gun owners who are totally unfamiliar with the term "ARS" and who don't know who is on SCOTUS let alone who ruled for us in Heller and McDonald. So, I've been told...

    apology if this has been addressed/new laws? how do they affect Washoe County/reno

    With preemption does this mean the "no guns" sign at the libraries in Reno sparks are now unlawful? 2 yrs ago while working as an indy contractor for washoe I got all kinds of grief for OC, was told its illegal by people that didn't even know what NRS means. Reno city hall? Reno libary? washoe...

    Washoe County officials ignore or don't know O.C law, RPD gets their bluff called.

    Up until two weeks ago I was an independent contractor for Washoe County. I was a driver for the Gerlach senior citizens ( bus driver ) I had been planning on quitting, so the whole affair was more amusing then critical- but it showed how much work we have to do in educating our public...

    what is the law WRT Aurora calamity?

    First off, condolences and prayers sent to all affected by the tragedy. I've heard many conflicting reports. Some folks are asserting that both OC and CC are prohibited in Aurora, is this true? What about carrying in posted areas? Here in the NV many movie theaters are posted, but it is only a...

    burningman is on BLM land, claim its a real city for week, yet ban guns totally -

    Can they do this? I walk around outside during the festival and get angry stares from BLM feds but they didn't say anything last yr. It seems to me they have no basis for claiming they are a real Nevada city yet ban guns completely.

    I'm planning a motorcycle ride into Portland from Reno NV area, advice needed, please

    I drive a sportbike, no saddlebags-maybe I will have a tank bag. I have a Nevada ccw, but that's it. How do I legally travel in Ore? can I OC while camping? Any difference between state & national forest? What about hotel rooms?

    washoe county shooting regs

    !!?? why cant they make up their minds or at least tell you what they mean-is it 1000 or 5000? I live in unincorporated Washoe and heard rumors the Sheriff is telling a neighbor he can no longer shoot on his land, but it appears as if the guys land is at least 5000 ft away and he was shooting...

    FFL's in north west NV? Reno/Sparks/Fernley?

    I was in a pawn shop the other day that had a bunch of guns ( the one on main st in Fernley ) The guy behind the counter said he charges 10% of the price of the gun if you want to use him as your FFL Seems a little pricey, do you guys/gals know of a better deal?

    any chance of a sparks/reno picnic before the winter comes?

    Seems like a good time of year, I missed the spring meetups but I have gotten my motorcycle fixed up somewhat. I'm still not making much money so restaurants are not an option for me.

    Washoe County buildings & vehicles/libraries

    can an employee carry on county prop? what about visitors? I see signs that say no firearms but I am suspicious about whether its like the DMV where the door says no firearms but they cite the NRS code that specifically relates to concealed. I was off duty as a security guard when I first...

    open carry near burning man in northern NV

    I was in the tiny town of Gerlach during burningman , the event itself prohibits firearms completely ( but they do not search for them because all the cops would find would be weed and E ) During burningman the town goes from 160 people to a few thousand and all kinds of law enforcement. I open...

    Reno main public library

    Has anyone OC'd there? They have a sign on the door but I cant remember exactly what it says. I was told to leave a few yrs ago when I worked as an armed guard, I went in ( in uniform/right after work) because I was oc'ing due to the long wait for ccw to arrive in the mail. I was told to leave...

    spring meet ups for Reno/Sparks?

    in another month & a half it will be warm enough for me to ride my bike into town, how about we start having picnics or whatever ( to be honest I'm not keen on trash collecting, I work enough on the ranch I live on ) ... I really like the parks near the river.

    are public libraries ok for oc?

    like the DMV, many libraries are posted-but according to what I've seen here the law is null & void, what about libraries? It sickens me the registered sex offenders can use a library to get to kids but a gun owner cant use the same library to get info if he is packing.

    So, burningman and BLM are authorized to confiscate guns on BLM land?

    burningman lit says they will confiscate firearms brought into their art event on BLM land- I talked to someone in the know of their higher ups & it seems as if some DC bureaucrats & some anti do gooders in the burningman org simply did away with due process and invented some right to...
