Hello! I’ve never done any sorts of sales to anyone that I didn’t know previously. Really don’t want to travel too much or wait for another gun show in town. Any suggestions for local groups? I’m in Wood County. Thanks folks.

Looking as to where I’d find buyers at for an FN reflex with a holosun red dot and a laser

I have an AR I’ve been wanting to sell and a S&W M&P9 shield plus I’m also trying to sell. Wondering where I’ll get the best offer.

Anybody know of any places in the eastern panhandle that does stippling?

I’m 33F, live in West Virginia USA.

When I was in my late teens/early 20s I was a drug addict. I’ve been clean for seven years now. During my addiction my parents had me 5150’d (involuntarily committed) twice. I was over 18 at the time, this was 12 years ago. One of the times they thought I was suicidal (I was not, just high).

Now as a “real adult” I want my gun rights back. I’m now a homeowner, in a committed relationship, planning a family, stable and sober. I’ve written a petition to my local judge, got a letter from my dad supporting me and expressing his reasoning for having me committed. I have disputed the denial I received when I tried to purchase a revolver. Got the NTN number and which exact issues prevent me from purchasing a firearm.

I plan to see a psychiatrist to be mentally cleared and am signed up for an upcoming firearm safety class this November. Once I see the psych and complete the class, I’m going to turn in my petition with all the added paperwork.

Thank you for reading all that. I thought it best to elaborate on my situation before asking my questions:

• any other West Virginians here who have been successful in restoring their gun rights? Is there anything helpful I’m missing in my quest? Even if you’re from another state, anyone with a similar background restored their rights successfully?

I have read that a law was recently passed in WV allowing those (non felons) who were involuntarily committed to restore their rights. I am hopeful of my situation.

Hi everyone, I was wondering if there are any ways in WV to LEGALLY buy a handgun at 20? I have my CCP and everything but cannot buy a handgun from an FFL until 21. Is there any legal way to buy one before my 21st or does it have to be gifted to me from a relative?

I saw some posts here and just want some clarification. I am a VA resident visiting for the day. I am 19 and don’t have a carry permit, so I open carry. (Yes I know it’s frowned upon)

My question is, can I keep my firearm loaded in the vehicle in my holster? I can wear it outside without issue, but I still get stumped on if it can be loaded within the vehicle. Thanks!

I just finished my course to get my CHL, I’m going to the sheriff office today. How long does it take to get your approval and CHL?

Hey y’all, I’m doing a weekend away in Franklin WV soon and wondered if anyone could recommend any public land to just shoot .22 on? Not looking for anything too serious. Thanks!

I live near Charleston. I've been trying to search for places to shoot at night under my nod's. From what I have found out, every single range closes early and there is obviously no public land to legally go shooting on. I live on about 30 acres of land but how West Virginia's topography is layed out, we have neighbors with-in 100 yards of our property and I don't want to piss them off by shooting at night. Even firing suppressed will be too loud. Is there any places anyone knows about where someone can shoot at night with-out being a nuisance. Or is WV not a good place for night vision owners?

I am 21 and do not have my CCW but am a resident of WV. I have a rifle but not handgun and have been wanting to keep my rifle behind my seats in my truck (single cab ranger, pretty concealed spot) Is that legal? I cant find anything about it anywhere. I would assume its legal because of constitutional carry but Im not sure if that applied to rifles. Does anyone know?

Practical Firearms Training still has some space available in the Defensive Handgun 1 & 2 class on March 9-10. The class is great for everyone from brand new and novice shooters to experienced shooters who want to hone their fundamentals. If you're interested in other classes like Tac Rifle, Shotgun, VBI, Room Entry, or Precision Rifle, check out the 2024 calendar here.

This is a full weekend of training - far more than the bare minimum four hour CCW classes you see all over the place - on a well-equipped range with fantastic instructors. I'm biased (I'm one of them), but I joined the instructor cadre because it's such a great environment: Classes are based on real-world encounters and most likely scenarios with no extra fluff, and there's no showboating or tacticool bs from the instructors.

I know there used to be places on MeWe to buy, sell, or trade locally, but they're shut down. I don't want gun store prices, but I don't want to give away stuff either. Trading for stuff I never shot is fun to me also. Do we just use the old school paper trading posts? Or is there a place online for is to mee up?

Where is a good place to post guns for sale? Any groups? Apps? I'm tired of fighting Facebook

Hello all,

Any seasoned WV hunters with tips on things to think about/know/be aware of/worry about when hunting on public land? I want to go when the season opens (though not the first day), and I'm on the lookout for meat more than a trophy. I'm pretty inexperienced, and will basically park my suv where it looks safe to do so and head a quarter mile or so into the woods (or not as far if I see any signs of activity (scat, tree scraping, etc.) and see what happens (basically, stay in one place for 10/15 minutes, if no activity move a few hundred yards, wait 10/15 minutes, rinse repeat).

I'm probably also going to go out at dusk and not dawn. I have never hunted WMA land; only private.

Thank y'all for any and all advice!

I'm thinking of selling two of my weapons, and I know I'll get the "best prices" selling them myself. There's a gun show this weekend and I thought I might try my luck doing a private sale. I am a little worried about the rules, which seem pretty loose here in WV.

Do y'all think I could assume that if someone is already in possession of a weapon they are legally allowed to purchase weapons? The law seems to indicate that "Knowingly selling a firearm to a person prohibited from owning one is illegal." But as an individual I don't have to do a background check.

I might just try to trade them inside for what I want to buy, but I know I won't get as good of a deal from the dealers.

Has anyone sold a gun to a stranger before?

Does any county accept non resident mail in application for handgun permit?

Title.

Is there a good location in Monongahela National forest to set up and shoot? The locations on the US Forest service website are vague at best.

I’m an out of state student at WVU and when school is in session I don’t have any good place to shoot. I’ve been told MNF kinda operates like BLM land out west so excuse me if I’m misinformed

Hey y’all I’m moving from VA to WV in the next couple weeks are there any firearms I will not be able to bring with me? Thanks in advance!

I live in the Northwest of VA and range options are sort of limited here. I've been looking for a good place to shoot for a while.

Just recently found these guys in Berkley Springs and their range and membership seems super promising. But it looks like their range is new and details online about the range and membership are sparse.

Has anyone here been? And care you share any insight on what it's like there? Thanks in advance.

I'm making a gun trust. I bought the trust document from an online vendor. I know when I sign it, I will need a notary witness. Do I also need other witnesses?

Don't know if this has been posted yet but Beckley has a Gun show this weekend. Saturday from 9am to 5pm and Sunday from 9am to 3pm. It's at the Beckley armory.
