That's too broad of a question to answer. It depends on several things, mainly what state you are in and what you are charged with. In some instances, it can be nothing but a fine, but in some instances, you can go to jail. For instance, in Tennessee, you might be charged with simple possession of a weapon, but you might be charged with "intent to go armed." One is a misdemeanor, one is a felony.
It depends on where you are. Different states have different laws.

Yes, you can carry a concealed weapon with a permit in a Florida restaurant unless the restaurant explicitly prohibits it. However, it is always a good idea to check the specific laws and regulations of the restaurant or establishment before carrying your concealed weapon inside.
In West Virginia you can not carry a concealed weapon anywhere without a permit. If you have a permit then you can carry a concealed weapon in a hospital as long as there is no signs stating that you cant. Also, If you do not have a permit, you cannot carry a weapon openly anywhere at night, witch is considered concealed. Please check with local law enforcements first! The information I provided is with a little research and is just given as an idea on what the law could be!
