Greetings all,
I will be relocating to the Northern Virginia area in the coming months from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. I am a former Virginia resident. I formerly held a Permit to Carry a Concealed Handgun in Virginia and currently hold a License to Carry here in Massachusetts. I plan to re-obtain a Permit to Carry a Concealed Handgun when I arrive in Virginia. I am trying to understand the whether I can carry while riding the Metrorail on the VA side of the river, and more generally the Metro Transit Police's view of armed citizens riding the Metrorail.
Assuming that I am carrying a firearm in compliance with state and local laws and am NOT riding the Metrorail into the District of Columbia, may I carry a concealed firearm on the Metrorail? Are there any special consideration of which I should be aware? Any information you might provide would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!
