According to handgunlaw.us, Virginia law specifies that a business can prohibit handguns on the property, even if the person has a carry permit, but it also specifies, "Violation is a trespass charge and not a firearms violation."

Can you carry a concealed weapon toat work in Louisiana?

I am honestly not sure about your state, as I live in the state of Tennessee. First I would recommend that you at least be licensed to carry a weapon with your state before going any further. If you are unsure of how to do this: Do a search for "CCW Lousiana" then follow the relevant links. That should at least cover your butt for state liability first. Second is your workplace rules: You have to know what your company's policy on the subject is. If your company has a policy against them, you still have options. You can: A. Assess the possibility of you getting searched or being discovered with the weapon. If you do not work in a place that is too physically demanding (as to cause the weapon to become loose from concealment) I would suggest just concealing you weapon to your work. The key is to keep it concealed by not letting ANYONE at your work know what you concealed. All it takes is a vengeful co-worker to find out what you have and rat you out to make themselves look better. B. Convince your boss that you have a direct threat and feel you need to carry one for your protection at work. It you do this well enough he may feel that it could be a liability NOT to let you carry concealed. Hope this helps....


Can a Louisiana private investigators carry guns?

Yes, but being a Private Investigator does not automatically mean you can strap one on. If you are a licensedPrivate Investigator you must still obtain a permit to carry an exposed weapon from the Bureau of Security and Investigative Services, and you may carry a weapon only when you are on duty. Most PI's in California do not carry a gun however,if you specialize in bodyguard work, you may need to carry one. In order to carry a concealed weapon, you must first obtain a gun permit issued by your local police or sheriff's department.


Can you carry a gun in a repo tow truck?

With a concealed weapon permit. It also depends on the company you are doing repossessions for. Some of the companies will not assign you work if they know you are carrying. Their philosophy is that "violence breeds violence"... You also need to check with the repo insurance company. They may require you to have additional insurance to carry.


Repossession law to carry a firearm?

Florida is not a traditional open carry state, so there is no provision permitting you to carry a firearm openly. If you have a concealed carry permit, you may carry a concealed firearm. However, you need the services of a lawyer to work out the finer points of this. In a number of states, if you are carrying a gun to a repossession on private property, you're obligated to inform them that you're carrying, and they have the right to restrict you from carrying a firearm on their property.

Do you need a license to work in executive protection in California?

The short answer is yes and no. According to the California Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau of Security and Investigative Service, under the California Business and Professions Code: security guards and bodyguards are the same and are covered by the same laws. A bodyguard is a security guard. "Only a BSIS licensed private patrol operator (PPO) may contract to perform security guard or bodyguard services to any person or business. An active duty peace officer with a guard card and an exposed firearm permit issued by BSIS may perform armed security guard (bodyguard) duties only as a security guard employee. The employment relationship must be with either a PPO, who has the contract to perform the service, or with the person or business for whom the security service is being performed." As it relates to firearms: "The laws, rules and regulations that apply to security guards apply to bodyguards. For example: If a security guard must be in a security guard uniform to carry an exposed weapon, then a bodyguard must be in a uniform to carry an exposed weapon. If a security guard who works in civilian clothes with a concealed weapon must possess a guard card and exposed firearm permit, and either possess a Concealed Firearms Permit (CCW), or be an honorably retired peace officer with an endorsement to carry a concealed weapon, or be an active duty peace officer, then a bodyguard who works in civilian clothes with a concealed weapon must possess a guard card, an exposed firearm permit and either possess a CCW, or be an honorably retired peace officer with an endorsement to carry a concealed weapon, or be an active duty peace officer." What I would suggest is that you obtain further training as an Executive Protection Specialist and use the term "Security Adviser" when looking for contracting work. I'm sure some may disagree with this approach, but it is one way of doing it. The reason you should call yourself a Security Adviser as opposed to Bodyguard is so that you avoid having to obtain unnecessary permits from the State of California. A Security Adviser, however, is not a Security Guard or able to carry weapons, baton or firearm, at all as it relates to their duties. I am not a big proponent of an Executive Protection Specialist carrying weapons anyway; I feel they are better suited to use their mind, presence, and verbal commands first when encountering a use of force situation. If violent ensues an Executive Protection Specialist should be controlling the protectee, covering them and evacuating them anyway. I have worked in the protection of Government and Military officials for over 18 years and have NEVER had to deploy a weapon during a protection detail. That's not to say it will "never happen," just that your risk is minimized if you plan appropriately, are mentally and physically prepared.
