Washington D.C. has always been the most strict about handguns, followed by California. As far as concealed carry goes, Wisconsin, Illinois and D.C. do not permit concealed carry, period. However, states such as California, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts are technically "may issue" states, it's practically impossible for an average citizen to obtain a concealed carry permit in these states.
You cannot carry a concealed gun in Illinois, but you can carry some types of weapons, such as pocket knives, and long as they are otherwise legal. Illinois does not have a concealed weapons permit.
It depends on where you are. In the U.S. each state sets its own rules. For instance, in Tennessee, there is no such thing as a weapons permit, it's a handgun carry permit, and applies to handguns only. Other than handguns, basically anyone can carry any legal weapon, but to carry a handgun, you must have the handgun permit. On the other hand, Florida issues a "concealed weapons permit" and it covers any legal weapon.
It depends on the state. For instance, Tennessee issues a "handgun carry permit" which covers only handguns and nothing else. Florida issues a "Concealed Weapons Permit" which covers any non-prohibited weapon.
According to state law, the only weapons you can not carry (open or concealed) is handguns, illegal knives, and clubs. So, by state law you can carry a rifle or shotgun in the open or concealed, loaded or unloaded. Just a note, you can carry a handgun in your vehicle without a license if you meet the "requirements".
It depends on the state. For instance, in Florida, yes, it's a concealed weapons permit and it covers weapons besides just guns. If I remember correctly, you can carry any weapon that's legal to have. On the other hand, Tennessee issues a "Handgun Carry Permit" that only covers handguns and nothing else, BUT it is not illegal to carry a concealed knife as long as the knife is otherwise legal (has to be less than 4 inches, basically), so the permit is irrelevent regarding knives. ADDING: Georgia just changed their law in 2010 to issue a "weapons carry license" that includes both handguns and knives with blades 5" or longer. Such weapons are not only covered by the permit, but also not subject to any city or county local laws. State-level preemption. But that's Georgia. Other states are different.
depends on your state laws
It depends on what state. Each state sets its own requirements for weapons and weapons permits. For instance, Tennessee issues a "Handgun Carry Permit" which covers only handguns and does require concealment. In Tennessee, you can techically carry a concealed weapon other than a gun without a permit as long as said weapon is otherwise legal.
Not legally. You can carry a concealed weapon if you have a concealed weapons permit from Florida, or from any state that Florida recognizes.
In Virginia, a concealed carry permit allows an individual to carry a handgun concealed on their person. The permit does not specify a limit on the number of firearms one can carry at a time, but typically, only one handgun is carried concealed. However, individuals may choose to carry multiple handguns in a manner that is not concealed, such as in a vehicle, as long as they comply with state laws. Always check local regulations for any specific restrictions.
In MOST of the US, there is no license to OWN a firearm- there are licenses to carry a concealed firearm, and licenses to hunt. While rules vary state to state, in most cases, you must be 21 to obtain a concealed weapons license, and hunters may be licensed at around 14-15 years old. You may purchase a rifle or shotgun at 18, and 21 for handguns.
It varies from state to state. In Tennessee, the law was passed in 1995. In Florida, it was passed a year or two before that. A few states have passed concealed weapons laws as recently as the last 2 or 3 years, and a couple of states, Illinois and Wisconsin, also the District of Columbia, don't issue concealed weapons permits.
