Post by Mancer »

Hi all

Been looking around but so far have come up fairly empty as to what the carry laws are concerning expandable batons in the state of UTAH, Ive read that they are illegal in California, anyone have any info for me on this?

Thanx

Aloha Mancer my South..er, "Utahian" brother! LOL!

Sorry, won't be any help here, but as far as the laws here, I can own and carry one ON my property...once I step off it however, I am breaking the law. Ugh.

I hope Utah is not as strict for ya!

God bless you and the family my friend! ;)

Hi Mancer,
I always look at www.packing.org for insight. Here is a link to Utah codes (as with many states, open to interpretation) Utah codes

MaNcEr -

If you're ever in doubt about your State's, or a State your travelling
to law's go to http://www.Google.com and enter the State & "public safety
code" into the Google engine & the first two or three hits will give you
a link to whatever State's public safety director and / or Dept.

Generally speaking, they could be lumped in with nightstick, sap
or billie - I wouldn't worry too much though, just be disceet & understand
that you now have something called the 5th Amendment ( in other words
"the right to remain silent" against self incrimination ) as protection if you're
ever arrested. If you don't look like some readily identifiable bad guy you'll
have no problems AFAIC.
