I would think it covers any legally owned weapon.

Arkansas law is very specific about what can be legally carried with the CHCL even though it is a Concealed HANDGUN Carry License. The specificity of the code eliminates the legal carrying of concealed rifles.

Concealed or not. Handguns, rifles, swords, whatever. |

Pretty tough to answer without throwing in some "excepts" and "buts." Kentucky, for example, issues a CCDW (Concealed Deadly Weapon License, right across the top) which allows you to carry anything that might conceivably cause damage to another if used as intended. Brass knuckles, switchblades, rifles, pistols, saps, anything.

When I lived in Florida the Concealed Weapon Permit allowed any legal weapon to be carried, provided it was concealed. ETA: It seems as though that did not include rifles/shotguns.
Tennessee has a Handgun Permit that only allows handguns to be carried, but they are not required to be concealed. Those are the only two states I have personal experience with. |

I was told it covered anything, and any amount, that you could conceal.
The only limitation in texas was if you took the course with a revolver, you could only carry a revolver. If someone showed up with a revolver I usualy loaned them an automatic. |

IIRC, in Florida, it covers all weapons except NFA items.
Section 790.06(1), Fla.Stat. License to carry concealed weapon or firearm.—For the purposes of this section, concealed weapons or concealed firearms are defined as a handgun, electronic weapon or device, tear gas gun, knife, or billie, but the term does not include a machine gun as defined in s. 790.001(9).

In Arizona, you could conceal anything. I'm pretty sure you could use an M203 for your daily carry if you wanted to. NC only covers handguns. You can't even conceal a knife.

In Washington State, there is no such thing as a concealed weapon license, no matter what people say.
In Idaho, it's a little more enlightened |

Our concealed deadly weapon license covers more than just handguns:
(a) A weapon of mass destruction; (b) Any weapon from which a shot, readily capable of producing death or other serious physical injury, may be discharged; (c) Any knife other than an ordinary pocket knife or hunting knife; (d) Billy, nightstick, or club; (e) Blackjack or slapjack; (f) Nunchaku karate sticks; (g) Shuriken or death star; or (h) Artificial knuckles made from metal, plastic, or other similar hard material; It does cover long guns. |

Quoted: A concealed weapons permit, unless stated for handguns only. Dose it cover rifles? This isn't asking about any one state but a over all in lawyer speak. If the law and permit both say "weapon" it would cover the carrying of a concealed rifle correct? The law should define "weapon" as it relates to the term's use in the CCW statute. |

Why would you need a license to do something that isn't illegal? It isn't illegal to carry a concealed rifle in Texas (generally speaking).
You say this isn't to cover any one State... but that doesn't make any sense. You're dealing with the laws of 50 States. That's like asking if something is illegal in Europe. |

In PA it is a license to carry firearms. Then firearms is defined for that portion of the law.
It covers handguns, sbrs, sbs, aow, and machineguns with barrels less than 16" or less than 26" oal. So I can concealed carry a FA M16 with a 10.5 upper and have it loaded in my vehicle, but a 16" AR needs to be unloaded and any loaded mags need to be transported seperate. Law makes a whole lot of sense. |

Mine says weapons permit. I show it at the gun store when buying either a handgun or a long gun but never wondered if I could conceal carry a long gun.
so I don't know if I can CC a long gun.

Just because carrying an item is legal in one state doesn't mean it will be allowed in another, even if that state accepts your permit. |

A lot of states do not honor ours as it requires no shooting, just a standard 1-2 hour NRA class, and is unlimited pretty much in what you carry. Just no machine guns or explosives pretty much. Iowa, on the other hand, honors all other 49 states permits. |

Pennsylvania definition of a firearm in relation to our License to Carry Firearms (LTCF). It should be noted that the definition of a firearm is different in other sections of gun laws in the state:
"Firearm." Any pistol or revolver with a barrel length less than 15 inches, any shotgun with a barrel length less than 18 inches or any rifle with a barrel length less than 16 inches, or any pistol, revolver, rifle or shotgun with an overall length of less than 26 inches. The barrel length of a firearm shall be determined by measuring from the muzzle of the barrel to the face of the closed action, bolt or cylinder, whichever is applicable. So SBRs, SBSs, etc. are good to go along with regular handguns. |
