long gun concealed carry
Does anyone know if it is legal to carry a Keltec sub 2000 loaded in a brief case or a backpack?

Re: long gun concealed carry
Other than the restriction on carrying a loaded long gun in a vehicle, I can't find anything against it. Maybe a LEO on the site can chime in with an opinion.

I realize I am resurrecting a 2 year old thread, but I can't find any conclusive information online then I found this.

Re: long gun concealed carry
Well I cannot prove this as of this writting but I can say that in Wa state we now have a CPL instead of the previous CWP, or concealed weapons permit. As I was told by a lady who ran the records dept at the court house the change came about when a man wrote to the state to check on the legality of him carrying his properly registered short barrled dbl barrel 12ga as his concealed weapon of choice. This was reported to have caused great fear amongst the people who are tasked with overseeing such things and they set about changing the wording to apply to handguns only. That is what I was told. This would only apply to efforts to carry it on your person. State law already forbids carrying any loaded long arm in a vehicle.

Re: long gun concealed carry
But I want to carry a suppressed FN 90 PDW under my leather jacket while driving my taxi downtown. B-)
Strategic is when you get reports about fighting.
Operational is when you hear shots fired.
Tactical is when you’re taking fire!

Re: long gun concealed carry
It is essentially in 2 pieces, and cannot be loaded because the chamber of the gun is open and a round would just fall out.bladebum wrote:If it's "loaded", it's a no go...r3volv3r wrote:Would the vehicle restriction apply if the gun is in the folded position?bladebum wrote:Other than the restriction on carrying a loaded long gun in a vehicle, I can't find anything against it.

I understand the long gun restriction, but folded it is basically like an AR upper and lower separated with a loaded magazine in the lower.
I guess as silly at it seems, a lower (unless registered as a pistol) with a loaded mag in a vehicle would probably be illegal?

Re: long gun concealed carry
If you are in a car, in a seated position think about the impracticality of any long arm, let alone one that isnt functional. Get a Glock 22 and a cross draw holster so you can legaly have a functional weapon that is immediately accessable from a seated position. Desire is one thing, but you have to look at this stuff from a practical viewpoint.

Re: long gun concealed carry
This is certainly not a carry weapon, or a matter of self defense.
I am inquiring about the legality of having it as a truck gun, folded (inoperable) with a magazine in the grip.

RCW 77.15.460
Loaded rifle or shotgun in vehicle — Unlawful use or possession — Unlawful use of a loaded firearm — Penalty.
*** CHANGE IN 2014 *** (SEE 6041-S.SL) ***
(1) A person is guilty of unlawful possession of a loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle, as defined in RCW 46.04.320, or upon an off-road vehicle, as defined in RCW 46.04.365, if:
(a) The person carries, transports, conveys, possesses, or controls a rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle, or upon an off-road vehicle, except as allowed by department rule; and
(b) The rifle or shotgun contains shells or cartridges in the magazine or chamber, or is a muzzle-loading firearm that is loaded and capped or primed.
(2) A person is guilty of unlawful use of a loaded firearm if:
(a) The person negligently discharges a firearm from, across, or along the maintained portion of a public highway; or
(b) The person discharges a firearm from within a moving motor vehicle or from upon a moving off-road vehicle.
(3) Unlawful possession of a loaded rifle or shotgun in a motor vehicle or upon an off-road vehicle, and unlawful use of a loaded firearm are misdemeanors.
(4) This section does not apply if the person:
(a) Is a law enforcement officer who is authorized to carry a firearm and is on duty within the officer's respective jurisdiction;
(b) Possesses a disabled hunter's permit as provided by RCW 77.32.237 and complies with all rules of the department concerning hunting by persons with disabilities; or
(c) Discharges the rifle or shotgun from upon a nonmoving motor vehicle or a nonmoving off-road vehicle, as long as the engine is turned off and the motor vehicle or off-road vehicle is not parked on or beside the maintained portion of a public road, except as authorized by the commission by rule.
(5) For purposes of subsection (1) of this section, a rifle or shotgun shall not be considered loaded if the detachable clip or magazine is not inserted in or attached to the rifle or shotgun.
With no languge regarding an opened hinged action I would say the ruling language would have to be Sec 1 (b) where is talks about having a loaded magazine in the weapon.

Re: long gun concealed carry
Thanks Scrappy, BB, and everyone else for your help.
I was wondering if the fact that it was folded, being inoperable would put it more of a firearms parts category.
From what I have found in my research so far it is not worth the risk, but still haven't been able to find language that is really applicable to a folding/take-down type gun like or similar to this. Would a Ruger 10/22 takedown model broke down in 2 pieces in its bag but with a loaded magazine in the receiver fall under the same rules?

Yes ^ If it's in the rifle (loaded mag), it is illegal.
