So, after reading all of the above I have a dumb question: My Class A LTC states "Restrictions: None" ... my old one said "all lawfull purposes". Although I've never bothered to carry my handgun concealed, I'ts been my understanding that I can with this particular license. Is that correct?
I've read the laws and they are clear as mud. It seems that it's all about what a law does NOT say that tells you (or implies) what you CAN actually do
.
So again, my simple question is: can I carry a concealed handgun?
Also, I read and hear that (if I can in fact CCW) you can't carry in schools, federal buildings and possibley other establishments ... where does it say that?
Finally, I see above discussion about Boston specifically not allowing CCW. But does that mean that nobody can CCW in Boston, or is it just the Boston issuing agent will not issue that privledge to Boston residents (even though it's a 2nd ammendment right, but that's a whole 'nother discussion!)? I.e., shouldn't my State issued LTC be good throughout Mass, including Boston?
I have always been unclear on this and I'm looking forward to your comments.
