what is the concealed carry law in arkansas
Gun laws in Arkansas
As of August 16, 2013 permits are no longer required to concealed carry a handgun when upon a journey. However, there is some confusion over the legality of permitless carry in Arkansas. For concealed carry, Arkansas still offers CCW permits on a "shall issue" basis. Open carry of handguns is permitted in some counties, and seems to be legal by a simple reading of the law, yet some Arkansas states officials deny that it is legal.
