yes, Federal - National Parks.

a recommendation, just because I have a son and have been around alot of boys...I would recommend not to do the whole "don't mess with and don't touch", etc, for too long...he'll start getting curious because Daddy is doing it and he wants to be like Daddy so he could just do it when Dad isn't looking. Show him when it's safe, and show him the damage it can do, then put them away.

when ours were young we would occasionally take melons out and let them shoot it....it would show them the damage a gun could cause, it was good for them, they still remember it. And they were never tempted to touch the guns without us.

Federal parks are a yes; EXCEPT, one can NOT carry in a building/structure where federal employees are present.

ah, that's the bit....I just remembered we couldn't carry at the missions.

Hi Chris,

welcome to the forum,

well, that's alot of questions, let me see what I'll answer and what I'll leave for the guys to cover...

first, sounds like the more your wife gets out to the range and gets familiar with the guns, me more comfortable she will be with them. She'll be fine.

Also, start now teaching your son to leave the gun alone, that it's not a toy. look at the Eddie Eagle Program through NRA. My kids loved that video.

1. Where to go for all of the answers? Here for a start. your CHL class next.
2. correct, in your home and in your vehicle, and there are limitations there that I'll let the others cover. I'll let the guys cover anywhere else.
3. oh dear.....OK, the others are going to have to fill in here, but I do know (I think) that COE land is a "NO" and I know for sure, State Parks are a "YES", cause I go to several, Federal parks are a "NO"

I think I've given it a good start. I'm sorry I could answer everything, but honestly I just don't fish and hunt so it's not something I worry about.
