I'll be driving through VA tomorrow and I'm looking for a 2nd opinion on carrying while doing so. The way I read VA law is that I can have my weapon in the vehicle with me but it has to be in a contaniner and not on my person. Agree or disagree??
Thanks.

If you have a CHL, then no problem carrying on your body

Re: Carrying in vehicle while in VA.
This is probably moot now for the OP, but in VA you can open carry no CHL needed. However if you have a CHL from TX you are golden no worries at all.
*handguns is what I am primarily thinking of, but I did see a person OC a most serious looking gun once.....he would have been well set if the Mongolian hordes invaded (no offense to Mongols).
