this is a 2 amendment issue. the Va. State forest is not a forien country. it is Virginia and all laws should be the same if you are a Legal permint carryer  it should be the law of virginia with all the bad stuff that goes on in our country we should be able to protect our selves and Family. look at all the young ladies who are getting killed by bad people. No one has the write to take advantage of anyone. I'm have a permint to carry and hope I never have to use it. So many of our law makers are living in and a happy land where everthing is so wonderful. Please get the State forestry to get off this issue and remember this is the UNITED STATES.
