Saw an open carrier of a glock 19 last night in a Giant in Ashburn. I had a similar setup under my coat. No one ran for the hills. They were all too busy buying all the bread within 100 miles.
You have bread within 100 miles?

Welcome to the forum chidoug - lots of good people here.Hi everyone. i'm new here and new to Virginia. I just recently moved to Reston, Va from Chicago, IL. I live in the deepwood community and I have a few questions. (sorry if this been asked, i did use the search but was unable to locate).
1. I am pretty sure that I can OC here in Reston, but where i live in Deepwood there are few trails that I use to walk my dog. I have not seen any signs restricting OC and I do not believe that is under the control of National Forests (no signs indicating so). So how to I find out I can or cannot legally OC on these trails?
2. I am still learning the area and my understanding that in Fairfax county that I am not allowed to OC in Alexandria, Falls Church, and Fairfax cities. Is there any other place in Fairfax county that I am not allowed to OC?
3. I have the application for a CC, but can anyone suggest where i should go to get my certificate to qualify for CC?
--snipped-- The trails that i'm talking about can be more explain at the reston.org sits: https://www.reston.org/Parks,RecreationEvents/Pathways/tabid/418/Default.aspx
I walk the turquoise trial for the most part and on their site there is no mention of any restriction, that i can see anyways.

is equipped at the time of the offense with a magazine that will hold more than 20 rounds of ammunition or designed by the manufacturer to accommodate a silencer
To 2a4all and Wolf_shadow, great info. and thanks for taking the time to help me out. I will most defiantly read up on what you all provided.

I always have my firearm concealed everywhere I go around here, but after Feb 1st, I will no longer be able to conceal.
Thanks,

Insofar as your certification/training for a CHP - if you have been in the service, a copy of your DD214 will sufice; online training works as does a hunter's safety course from the Dept. of Game and Inland Fisheries. There are plenty of instructors in your area, but if you have had training or a permit elsewhere, the primary benefit IMO is to get a jump start of VA laws.
after doing a quick search for a class, these two came up. any advice which one is best or would either one of them be official in getting chp?

I do have a missouri hunter education certificate but not really sure where i have put it.
With all due respect, I take issue with that.If they say they are good for Va certs you should be fine with it. Overall, do the cheaper one. There is dead square nuttin you will learn in that half hour or so that you probably/should/do not already know.
And if there is one thing you really need to know, it's do not shoot anything unless it really really needs shooting.

Perchance I should have added that there is almost nothing in any online course or 2-3 hour course or 2 day course or anything of the like you should not know before you start carrying. And I was primarily referring to a half hour online course. But a computer session or weekend is not (IMHO) sufficient. And more SHOULD NOT be govt required.
And once you do start and attend some class your learning/training/thinking/considering on the subject is about .003% complete. It is something you should learn about, reconsider, discuss, train on and think on for as long as you choose to carry.
Grape, your summary of employing deadly force is about the same as deciding how bad the other one needs it.
