I support the rule change, but open carry should also be legal
 
I  support the proposed regulation, BUT it should also include lawful open carry. When the current Governor, Bob McDonnell, was the Attorney General, he published an opinion that State Parks and other such state agencies did not have the power to ban openly carried handguns. I agree and would ugre that open carry to be legal in State Forests and any other DGIF lands.
