Re: State Park CC - Questions
Bump to top...
I too would like more info on this subject...
With our new ability to carry in Federal Parks, shouldn't we also gain legal access to state parks as well?
Thanks,

Not necessarily. Both recently changed here in Pennsylvania, but through separate actions. Our state legislature took action to strike down a "rule" put in place by DCNR. The change in National Parks happened because the Dept. of Interior/NPS also made a rule change.
However, the NPS rule change doesn't automatically mean you can legally carry in a state park in your home state. You need to check your local laws to determine what's legal for you.Get your "Guns Save Lives" stickers today! PM for more info.

Re: State Park CC - Questions
Thanks Greg,
I'm good to go here in NC, but have spent alot of time in PA State Parks, so was interested in just the changes you stated.
My complements to PA for making good choices!
Hope all is well with you,

Re: State Park CC - Questions
The question here is really about DNCR rangers. Are they considered law enforcement?. I am pretty sure the UFA states you must produce your permit if a LEO asks to see it.
Having said that you are under no obligation to talk to any LEO. It is only against the law to lie to the FEDS.( Ask Marta Stewart) When it comes to a federal officer you are better saying nothing.
If I happened upon NPS property while photographing trains at Steamtown, I would keep my yap shut, if asked.
As for a PA state park. But you broke no law by lying to them.
In Pa it is only illegal to give a leo false ID info, or file a false report.
You can not be arrested for not incriminating yourself.

Nope.
§6122. Proof of License and Exception.
(a) General rule.-When carrying a firearm concealed on or about one's person or in a vehicle, an individual licensed to carry a firearm shall, upon lawful demand of a law enforcement officer, produce the license for inspection.Get your "Guns Save Lives" stickers today! PM for more info.

Re: State Park CC - Questions
Does the Park Ranger have a right to ask for your LTCF if he would see that your carrying. (Shirt rides up or something). He isn't an LEO. What powers does he have? I had never thought about this before.
