Kentucky Concealed Carry Deadly Weapon (CCDW) Practice Exam

In Kentucky, where is it prohibited to carry a concealed weapon, despite having a CCDW permit?

1. In your own home

2. Police stations

3. Retail stores that permit weapons

4. Open-air music festivals

The correct answer is: Police stations

In Kentucky, it is prohibited to carry a concealed weapon, even with a CCDW permit, in police stations. This is because police stations are considered government buildings, where concealed weapons are not allowed. The other options, such as your own home, retail stores that permit weapons, and open-air music festivals, all do not have a blanket restriction on carrying concealed weapons with a CCDW permit. For example, while it is generally allowed to carry a concealed weapon in your own home, there may be exceptions such as if you are a convicted felon or have a restraining order against you. Similarly, while retail stores may permit weapons, it is ultimately up to the individual store and it is important to check their policies before assuming it is allowed. Open-air music festivals also have varying policies, so it is important to check with the specific festival before carrying a concealed weapon.
