Will be in WV from Ohio

[Jackster]

Hello, all. I have relatives in Wellsburg, and I intend to apply for jobs in Southern WV. I have a concealed handgun license from Ohio, and was perusing the WV code. I saw that I am required to open carry in my vehicle unless Ii have a WV CCW License? Am I correct in that understanding?

WV accepts Ohio Concealed Carry permit so you should not have to open carry. It would be treated the same as their own except in the GFSZs where the Federal law says no guns unless within your own state that licensed you.

No mention of a CCW from a reciprocity state having to open carry in vehicle. This site should give you all the info you need on any state including WV
