Need some Vermont vacation help

[logan13m]

Any of you guys ever been to Windmill hill? Just want to know if it is a "gun friendly" zone. My girlfriend wants to go to the pinnacle cabin. Says its a hike of a few miles on a trail. Just wanted to know if I could bring a bear gun with me in case of.....you guessed it bears. From what I read Vermont as of right now still allows carry for residents and non residents without a permit. Any info would be great.

Long as it's not a state owned building, you're good. No carry permit needed (Vermont has NEVER required them and never issued any.)

Your chances of seeing a bear will be better if you hide some black sunflower seed in your girlfriend's pack.
As for carrying, they do allow hunting on most of the property (some is a wildlife sanctuary where explicitly prohibited) so I doubt it's an issue.
Be sure you understand the new regulations around "large capacity ammunition feeding devices": New Vermont Gun Laws FAQs | Department of Public Safety

You only need to be able to run faster than your girlfriend. Just sayin...

Will some lawyer type please tell me if I own a P14 45 and have since the Brady bill 2 passed, can I carry it in VT? This law is full of reversal and mumbo jumbo language.
