Another EDC carry question

[Dolomite_supafly]

So we know you cannot carry a long gun outside of your vehicle with ammunition present. But I got to thinking what if your long gun takes the same magazines as your sidearm?

 

With the recent release of the Nano Glock carbine it would seem like a perfect gun to SBR and carry with you. And because you would not have ammunition for it I would think that it would be legal to do so. But in the event that you need a rifle just drop the magazine out of your Glock and put it into the Nano.

 

So what does everyone else think?

Sounds like skirting the intent of the law.  I suspect that having magazines compatible with the rifle anywhere on your person would qualify as "present".

Talk to Voldmort...if he can even still own a gun or carry one. I'm sure he'd love to give it a try!

I like the way you are thinking.  Personally I'd be scared to try it, it seems like the ATF is just itching to make an example out of anyone that they can.

It is Tennessee aw that says you cannot have ammunition with your long gun, not the fed.

I would think that if the carbine can be loaded single shot, and you have a round of that caliber ammo on you, then you're still culpable.

I thought you could have a long gun in your car as long as one was not in the chamber. Am I missing something?

You can actually have a LOADED long gun in your vehicle now as long as you have a HCP. That changed a year or two ago.

No permit needed as per last summer. Anyone who can legally own the gun can have loaded  guns of any type in private vehicle. Including having round chambered.

See above comment. That was for permit holders only, but was repealed, or rather, deleted.

 

But thread is about having loaded/loadable long guns on the person in general public, which remains unlawful for everyone.

Cool, I didn't realize that was passed.

I see it as actually one of the biggest strides in firearm freedoms in TN since 1870.

 

It was absurd that TN law already gave you same castle doctrine rights to you in your vehicle as you have in domicile,  yet denied you the wherewithal to enforce as you could in your home, unless you paid for the privilege to do so.

Now if we can get rifle carry like a HCP allows.
