In addition to the new gun laws which take effect in Virginia on July 1st, there is an important administrative code change that will take effect on July 7th. The change, published in Volume 27 Issue 20 of the Virginia Register of Regulations, modifies 4VAC10-30-170 to remove the prohibition against both open and concealed carry on land under the ownership and management of the Department of Forestry.

I LOVE that quote from then-AG McDonnell where he says “A person’s right to carry a firearm openly is considered universal within the Commonwealth, subject to definite and limited restrictions upon certain locations and classifications of individuals.”

Restoring our Constitutional rights, one increment at a time.

Many of us remember McDonnell voting for one-gun-a-month.
I still don’t trust him.

These are great steps toward redeeming that poor decision however.
