Can you carry a concealed handgun into a private business in Virginia that has a 'No Guns' sign posted if you have a CHP?

  1. Yes, the permit overrides any such signs

  2. No, the business owner's rights are respected

  3. Yes, but only if you conceal the handgun very well

  4. No, unless you have permission from the business owner

The correct answer is: No, the business owner's rights are respected

In Virginia, if a private business has a 'No Guns' sign posted, even if you have a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP), you are generally not allowed to carry a concealed handgun into that establishment. The rights of the business owner to control their private property and set rules regarding firearms in their establishment are upheld, and it's important to respect their wishes. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
