Are there locations where carrying a concealed handgun is prohibited in Virginia, even with a CHP?

  1. No, you can carry everywhere with a CHP

  2. Yes, but only federal buildings and schools

  3. Yes, including places of worship, bars, and airports

  4. Yes, but only private properties if indicated

The correct answer is: Yes, including places of worship, bars, and airports

In Virginia, it is illegal to carry a concealed handgun in certain locations, even if you have a CHP (Concealed Handgun Permit). While option A may seem appealing, it is incorrect as there are specific locations where carrying a concealed handgun is prohibited. Option B is partially correct, as federal buildings and schools are indeed locations where carrying a concealed handgun is prohibited regardless of a CHP. However, option C is the most accurate as it lists other prohibited locations like places of worship, bars, and airports. Option D is too broad, as carrying a concealed handgun is only prohibited on private properties if there is a sign indicating so. Therefore, the correct answer to this question is option C.
