    VA Open Carry

    The Walther P-22 is a rather common firearm, but it looks like it would not be allowed under VA's open carry law: it has a threaded barrel and could accept a suppressor. If I interpret this correctly, somebody could get in a heap of trouble quite by accident if the cop knows guns.
