On private property this also applies but it gets fuzzy as there is no technical violation of law if you carry there even if there is some sign. The owner (or legitimate representative such as property lessee) can ask you to leave because of you carrying and if you fail to comply you are trespassing. Of course, how would they know if you are carrying concealed. The only reasonable time you can't carry on private property is if there are pat-downs and/or metal detectors.

If you get up to Ely (and places in between like Tonopah) you may be able to open carry but again, I recommend against it as it always makes you a target for the BG that is paying attention.

Hope that helps. Enjoy your time in Nevada.

Thanks Reds45ACP, that does help and eases my mind about Las Vegas. I'm not planning to open carry at all, I don't like to advertise I'm carrying. I'll jo go about my business as usual.

thanks

I have the Arizona permit and Texas CHL and just read through handgunlaws.us for Nevada (again) as we are going to be in Nevada for about 10 days next month. Will be in Las Vegas, Ely and places between. We will be driving so I don't have any worries about the airports, but just to clarify what I read in the information and I also checked the "NV Sheriff’s & Chief’s Association" site http://www.nvsca.com/ccw-retirees.php, the only prohibited areas are public buildings and there is no enforcable signage to prevent CC (or OC from what I can tell) in any business (casino's and bar's included).

Am I reading all that correctly? I didn't carry the last time I was in Las Vegas (which is also the first and only time so far) due to being in Clark county and Vegas for the most part and didn't want to get hassled based on the comments from some about Clark County and Vegas in particular "making their own rules" and not following state law. I know concealed means concealed and all that, I just did not want to be a test case or ruin my wifes birthday.

Oh I also found some other forums that said there was no problem carrying concealled in Vegas or anywhere else, even some groups had done OC on the strip. The posts were old (2010 and earlier), so not sure if anything changed since then. Doesn't seem so, but doesn't hurt to ask and get some confirmation.

They say to expect 60 days

I sent a request for a packet in late June, received the packet, got finger printed at my local PD for no charge (2 cards) mailed back to Arizona second week of July and yesterday received my Arizona permit.
