    Mammoth Cave?

    imported post It's my understanding we can now carry in National Parks, with the exception of 'federal buildings' such as visitor centers and the like. Bottom line, is the cave itself considered a 'federal building'?

    imported post Anyone know more about the guy arrested in Walmart a couple days ago? All I know is he walked into the women's bathroom and some customers saw him with a handgun.

    Saw Avatar and...

    imported post ...no, this isn't about the amazing movie, but rather something to do with carry. You guys may recall a post I wrote about a local theater with 'no concealed weapons allowed' and posting a nonsense KRS on the front doors. At the time I called the manager asking about the decals...

    Here's a good one

    imported post Went to ship some ammo at the UPS hub in Louisville yesterday. A large sign on the side of the building had "No concealed weapons allowed on premises per KRS 237.020". Now I just looked that up, and here's what it pertains to: "Right of Kentucky residents, out-of-state...

    Brass getting rare?

    imported post I've called around to four gun ranges/shops in the Louisville area for 9mm brass. Most just said "no", but one guy explained they sell to reloading companies and don't leave any for people such as myself trying to do some reloading. Where are you guys getting your brass? BTW...

    FS: Sig 220 SERPA holster

    imported post Sorry if this doesn't go here, but haven't had much luck on other forums so thought I'd post here. Blackhawk SERPA holster for a non-railed Sig 220. Has the belt and paddle attachments. Used a few times, switched to something else so maybe someone could use this for OC. $20. I'm...

    Friend and I applied for our permits today

    imported post Finally. 6 month wait, take the class then wait for our certificates. Fortunately we got them in 5 days. Now the wait. $40 each to the SP, $25 for the sherriff. The lady came over to the waiting room with a digital camera and took our pictures.:lol: She's open carried a couple...

    Vehicle open carry, the final word

    imported post I thought it would be best to just start another thread on this subject so future OC'ers could just click and read. I contacted the KY State Police office, CCDW permit issuing authority. The gentleman's name is Willie, and was very helpful. I will give the phone number upon...

    Question on car open carry

    imported post Before I email the Attorney General's office, I'd like to ask everyone on here their opinion. My friend and I just finished the CC class at Bluegrass range in Louisville. The instructor was good, having been a deputy and currently competing in various IDPA style matches, among...

    CC at the 'church' service?

    imported post I know we already have a couple threads about the event coming up, but I noticed this on his website... Do I take that to mean CC with valid permit is 'allowed' at the meeting?

    Necessary to get a resident state permit?

    imported post My 6 month residency status is almost up here in KY, so I can schedule a CC class. Curious though, is it really necessary to get a KY state permit when I already have a non-resident FL permit that is valid here? Any particular advantage to having the KY one?

    No carry at adult education facilities?

    imported post Can someone confirm or deny the validity of this sign? Per Handgunlaw.us, "The provisions of this section shall not apply to institutions of postsecondary or higher education."

    Carry while dropping off kids at school?

    imported post I read the statutes on Handgunlaw.org and it doesn't list a provision for dropping off your kids like VA allows. Does this mean zero posession of handguns while on school grounds like the parking lot, IE leave it at home?

    National City Bank near downtown

    imported post Long story short, the bank actually has a metal detector chamber in the entryway. I almost didn't catch the sign out front stating as such. They have it set up so you go in on a green light, one person at a time. I guess they've had their fair share of robberies. One of the metal...
