I'm no expert on gun laws. But it seems to me that Webb may have violated his permit by just putting the gun in the bag. That seems less "readily retrievable" than a glove compartment.Corin,
As much as it pains me to say so, Webb did not violate his permit by putting the gun in a bag. As long as the bag (containing the pistol) was in his possession and he held a valid permit he (and Thompson if he held one too) would be OK, IN VIRGINIA that is. But since this was in D.C., Virginia law does not apply.

I would only add that on a previous thread it was brought up that senators are US Marshals under some law passed last year if memory serves. Web was legal for all intents and purposes but the aide is not protected.

But it wasn't in his possession.
