I cannot get the concealed carry site to open tonite so I will just ask the question here. Can I carry in AR with a PA permit? And what are the rules to transporting on Greyhound? I would call Greyhound themselves but I'm afraid depending on the answer they will suspend all buses under a terrorist threat because somebody had a question about guns.

    License Reciprocity
    States that recognize Arkansas concealed
    handgun licenses
    The State of Arkansas has obtained memorandums of
    agreements with other states that enable valid concealed
    handgun license holders from each state (listed below) to carry a
    concealed handgun in the reciprocal state. An Arkansas
    concealed handgun license holder visiting one of the reciprocal
    states must obey all laws of a reciprocating state when
    exercising concealed handgun privileges. License holders are
    strongly encouraged to check for any changes in the laws of a
    reciprocating state before visiting that state and exercising
    concealed handgun privileges. Arkansas concealed handgun
    license laws do not supercede another states laws. The states
    that have reciprocal concealed handgun license agreements
    with Arkansas are:
    Arizona
    South Carolina
    Florida
    Tennessee
    Kentucky
    Texas
    Oklahoma
    Utah

    Well, I guess I'll just have to leave it home and hope no bad guys try to hurt me. And with all those laws they forgot to mention farting in public is reason for revocation. Man, PA is not near that bad, when I got my permit it had a list of 5 nonos and two of them was suggestions, not law.

    HEHE, could you see me boarding the bus with with an AR15 over my shoulder, ammo pouches on my belt and a spare 30rd mag sticking out of my shirt pocket!! Do you think I will have a problem getting a good seat all to myself?!
