I've been visiting Arlington, VA frequently now for over 35 years. All my guns are in Arlington and I shoot regularly there. I am looking forward to enjoying this forum.

Re: Frequent visitor to Arlington
Which brings up an interesting question.
My eldest brother is buried in Arlington Nat. Cemetery, can I visit his grave without disarming as long as I stay out of DC?
I would be coming up from the south or south west.
I carry every time I leave the house, usually OWB at 3 o'clock.
I do have a VA CHP in case my pistol is inadvertently covered by a shirt or jacket.

There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men. - RAH
Four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, ammo - use in that order.
If you aren't part of the solution, then you obviously weren't properly dissolved.

Alan, I'd say follow the rules, but I have never seen anyone checking what you have or not on you (concealed) at the Arlington cemetery. Been there last time last fall. Anyway, highly unlikely you will need to carry there, unless you're afraid of ghosts or zombies.
All political power comes from the barrel of a gun. The communist party must command all the guns, that way, no guns can ever be used to command the party - Mao Tse Tung
