Question what type of laws are there for carrying a gun with a driver out on the road? if its against the law would i be able to get a permit or something?
Answer Hi Scott.
It is illegal to carry a gun in a commercial vehicle, period. There are no permits or exceptions. I hear guys saying they carry guns. If it got stolen, or worse, you shot someone breaking in, you could be in a world of hurt too!
