Heading up to LBL this weekend and can't find a definitive answer regarding ccw in the park.

Some say yes, others say no.

Anyone here know?

Archived thread is #1 result on Google Search of your question.

Read the thread earlier and called the LBL number.

Thread says yes - folks at LBL say no, thus me asking here.

It is illegal to carry a loaded firearm on LBL land.

According to some law enforcement over the LBL, they won't prosecute someone who is legally concealed carrying as long as they're not breaking any other law.

I don't know how well a defense of " I read it on the internet" would be if you were caught and arrested.

Concealed means concealed and there's lots of dangerous people in the woods these days cooking drugs and growing dope.

If it's unloaded and in the trunk while on property I'll be gtg then?

It appears that would be allowed. Unloaded and out of reach.

Wow, can't say I blame you, then. But consensus seems to be concealed is OK if you're not breaking any laws or generally making trouble for yourself.



 

Well, I just gave a lecture to a trail riding group about carrying firearms while riding in Kentucky. I contacted the Law Enforcement Div. that covers the Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky. They sent me an email document with their policy. I contacted the law enforcement folks at LBL. Well, she said that they could carry , but not in the open and if they carried open the law enforcement officers at LBL would have an issue with them. She would not send me a document with their policy. OK folks, either you have a written policy or you don't have a policy and if you don't then Commonwealth Law is in force, If you carry concealed on or about your person you must have a valid KY CCDW ( or one we recognize from another state). The state constitution allows you to carry open where not prohibited by Federal , State or local law. So, here is what I told them ( horsemen), as a group contact the folks at LBL and demand a written document containing their policy and do not stop as a group until you find someone high enough that can't ignore the issue. As I always tell my students, get documentation, not someones opinion ( opinion ain't going to help much if any in court.). Not much help, but I know where you are coming from trying to follow the policies of the Fed's and State. Good luck.

Probably.  To be honest I don't even think you have to go that far.

According to that page, they received an email in April 2010 from the Manager of communication services of LBL:


I'm reading that as... they won't openly allow CCW and definitely won't allow OC, but if you get stopped for say a minor traffic issue, they're not going to use your CCW against you unless you turn it into an issue yourself etc.

Remember KY is a very gun-friendly state.
