So I see an exemption for permit holders at public assembly but nothing for regular carry. Is this correct? Is regular carry prohibited even for permit holders? I need to be on a lawful mission? Isn't self defense a lawful mission?
How did you know?!?!

The windows could get serious smudges with that repeating high capacity weapon. So of course it is banned....
After reading the AG's response to the questions we put forth for long gun carry. The AG's office mentioned any firearms laws that were enacted before 1/1/1985 are not preempted by State law.
What laws/ordinances by local governments exist today, that were enacted before 1/1/1985?

Here is the whole section. Note the reference to has been licensed by the state in 57-10 and 57-11 which expressly exempts from its coverage permit holders. Note as well that the bar in 57-10 applies to "any gun designed to use explosive
ammunition' Now, I assume that most handguns are not designed to use "explosive ammunition" But please correct me if I am wrong...
