    Come on, don't start getting nasty. I didn't see where you posted any legal information..

    I still don't see it.. Can you provide a link please.

    And I've searched the internet high and low and couldn't find where it said it was illegal.. That's why I was hoping you could provide a link since you so strongly feel that it's illegal.

    It's becoming obvious this guy has nothing to back up what he's saying. I'm going to unsubscribe so I don't get 40 updates in my e-mail of him claiming to have already posted some sort of fact. If he does come up with something, someone send me a PM--I'd love to see it.
     
    photolurp2, Joetro and Ken Thank this.

    Now we're right back to where we started the first time that was brought up..

    Nowhere does it specically address cmv's. As stated before, I have a permit that has reciprocity in other states. I can carry legally.

    Your position has been that it is illegal to carry in a cmv.. You still haven't proved that.

    If you can't prove it, that's fine.. Just don't keep saying it's illegal when that law you posted doesn't say so.

    Okay.. I'll say this one last time.. I have a permit to carry a concealed pistol. I can carry it wherever I want. (with a few exceptions, such as a courthouse) That's why it's called a concealed weapon permit..

    Okay.. I'll let you have the last word. But i still must discount your position..
