Re: Firearms aboard boats
Additionally, as a Federal Firearms Licensed dealer, I will tell you this. DO NOT listen to what anyone in this forum tells you regarding the legality of your firearms possession aboard you boat in any given body of water. Though federal law does not prohibit such possession, each and every state may have different laws which govern such act. Not finding out what YOUR state and municipality say about this can end your right to have a firearm, forever.
Yup, too many self claim experts here that will get someone in jail.
I AM a licensed firearms dealer, I'm not just talking out of my blow hole
Being a licensed firearms dealer does not exclude you from being wrong or make a mistake....
Thanks guy, I am a walking federal firearms regulation library. I don't know too much about boats, wiring etc., but firearms and the laws that encompass I do know. If anyone had any firearm related issues or questions, I'm happy to help with "accurate" and "factually correct" info.
You dont seem to be all that accurate in the laws in NC. You might better stay in the federal law...
I took you up on your suggestion, something you should have done yourself before you spewed misinformation on a public forum such as this one.
I believe you should take your own advise...
I did say that it is not illegal to carry a firearm, concealed, if you have a concealed carry permit, except in legislation specified places. Regardless of what the business posts, it is still not a violation of the law. You cannot be charged with trespassing if the business is open for business, unless you have been warned not to trespass or unless you broke in after hours.
WRONG!!!! Yes, you can be charged with trespassing.
Outside of that you can carry a concealed weapon with a permit anywhere. Even if your local mall decides they want to strip your rights away, unless you go whipping your gun out in the mall, you CANNOT be arrested or charged with anything just because you choose to ignore their posting.
Wrong again! See the above.
The law is clear as to what type of action would get the ccw revoked, even in NC. Let me enlighten you.
Really, with wrong information? If you carry in a violation of your permit your gun is illegal.
No actually you don't get it. The coversation centered around what is LEGAL and what is ILLEGAL. Under the law, it is NOT a criminal violation to disregard a private propery owners posting of no guns allowed, IF that property is open to the public. Do you think as a private property owner, you can host a public event and post "no blacks allowed", and if a black person attends you can have them arrested? Exactly, at most, the police may ask the individual to leave, but thats it. No magistrate or court or police officer will stand by you with any other action you take.
If you doubt me and are so sure of yourself, please post your state statute that shows otherwise.
Wrong, wrong, wrong... IT IS ILLEGAL in NC to disregard the owner posting in his property, regardless if it is open to public or not.
