Montana, Wyoming, Idaho with Florida CWP?

[Dan Forrester]

With packing.org gone its more difficult to find this information now a days. I know I could do a search and eventually gather all this information but would rather not.

Well I’m heading up to Montana for a 10 day vacation this Thursday and am planning on taking my Glock 20 10mm and Spyderco Civiliaan. The civilian if you not familiar with it has a 4 1/8th inch reverse “s” blade which is obviously not a utility knife. From what I’ve heard this knife is illegal in some states? Can any of you who live in these states shed any light on this?

I have a valid Florida resident CWP and will be visiting the states of Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming. In addition to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park I will be visiting various state and local parks as well. I know I can’t carry in Yellowstone or Glacier but what about other parks, BLM land, National Forests, ect?

As far as I can tell my CWP is valid in all three of these states. Is there anything except for the usual like bars, police stations and government buildings I should avoid?

Thanks, Dan

What are you asking? It sounds like you're asking if your FL CWP allows you to carry a knife in those states.

Are there actually two questions hiden in there?

Call the sheriff

If you call Ada County Sheriff in Boise and ask for the concealed weapons desk, they will send you a list of states that reciprocate with Idaho.

That's a start.

#1 Would carry of either of my weapons be legal within state or local parks in any of these locations?

#2 Except for the usual places like bars, police stations and government buildings (basically places every state forbids CWP holders form carrying in) are there any other places I should avoid?

I really don’t know where I’m going when I get there other than the usual outdoorsy destinations. So I’m basically just looking for places either my gun, knife, or both would best be left behind.

Thanks, Dan

a little off topic, but if you are in Yellowstone.. push a bit north.. I never understood why a magnificent place like Bear tooth pass wasnt a national park !!!

In Montana you may carry concealed weapons without a permit as long as you are outside of city limits.
