You should be able to, although it'll almost certainly disqualify you from being able to obtain a concealed carry permit, although a better call could be made if one were to know the nature of the charges, and especially if it was actually a felony charge pled down to a misdemeanor.

Is it legal to carry a loded rifle in Kentucky?

When you're afield hunting, yes. If you're walking through downtown Lexington, you're not going to be able to carry a loaded rifle around with you, however.


What are cva muzzle loader laws in delawre?

Generally, the Federal government does not consider black powder weapons "firearms," so they may bought or sold by any person, in any fashion, without regard to Federal Firearms licenses. Delaware still considers them to be deadly weapons, so you cannot carry one in a concealed fashion without a state issued CCDW.


Can you carry a open handgun in Kentucky without a premit?

Open carry in the Commonwealth has been our heritage since the Constitution was written and adapted in Danville in the early 1800's. Not many people open carry because we have a CCDW law that outshines any states concealed carry law. The Commonwealth of Kentucky recognizes any and all state's CCW licenses/permits. It has been discussed many times about open carry. One of the main reasons for not doing so is that the BG can spot their prey right off and eliminate that threat immediately then move on to smaller prey. Some people look at someone carrying a firearm/ weapon openly as a 'kind of show off'. Only place that I know where you would be hasseled if you open carry is Louisville. LEO in that area just get stiff when they see someone who packs openly. Of course there are areas that are prohibited from carrying any type of firearm/weapon such as the schools, certain colleges, court rooms, federal buildings. A lot of buildings are posted that no concealed firearms are allowed - big deal, just take your coat or cover off and carry openly, but not in the places which I mention above. One thing, and please do not forget it! In 1956, a court case was won by an individual who was challenged by someone for his carrying a sidearm in open. Moral: if you do carry openly and someone does ask or challange you about your carrying, that individual/group is very subject to a lawsuit brought about for violating your constitutional right to carry openly. That right is covered in the first section of the Kentucky Constitution, para 1 - 7. With today's climate after 9/11, go ahead and get your CCDW license and don't worry about the open carry thing. That way, only you know. Ed
