Those negative comments referenced earlier are true charms. They are truly head in the sand kind of comments that do not reflect much knowledge on the subject in general or grounded in common sense. But they do reflect the opinions of the participants and you always have folks that feel this way whether it be in 2011 or 1911. As if a bad guy actually cares what the laws are in the first place....

UPDATE!
Grand news, I just received this email today. Great job folks! From: [email protected] RE: Virginia State Forest Regulations Amendment (4 VAC 10 - 30 -170) The Department of Forestry appreciates your comments and questions regarding the proposed amendment to the Virginia State Forest Regulations. The proposed regulatory amendment would lift the prohibition on lawfully carrying open and concealed firearms in Virginia State Forests. Throughout every phase of this regulatory process, the overwhelming majority of commenters supported the amendment to lift the prohibition against the lawful carrying of open and concealed firearms. The administration also supports the action. On April 4, 2011, the Department of Forestry officially submitted its Final Regulation for Executive review. The Final Regulation eliminates the prohibition of lawfully carried open and concealed firearms in State Forests.

Now the reg has to be reviewed. Can anyone tell me about how long this will take? Estimate? Does it have to be published in their regs before it becomes valid? Just want to be able to update the VA page with this info. Thanks and
EDITED Found the page that gives updates on this reg and they will post the date when it becomes valid. Thanks
