Description

Concealed handgun permits. Makes changes to the procedures governing the application for a concealed handgun permit and the carrying of a concealed handgun in the Commonwealth. The bill clarifies that a conviction from another state for driving while intoxicated or for drunkenness in public disqualifies an individual from obtaining a concealed handgun permit, and that any training to show competence with a handgun must be completed in person. The bill also requires that a nonresident carrying a concealed handgun in the Commonwealth with either a reciprocal permit from another state or a Commonwealth-issued nonresident permit display photo identification along with the permit, upon request of a law-enforcement officer. Amends § 18.2-308 (“Personal protection; carrying concealed weapons; when lawful to carry.”), of the Code of Virginia. View Full Text »
