Here's the preemption law:

§ 15.2-915. Control of firearms; applicability to authorities and local governmental agencies.

A. No locality shall adopt or enforce any ordinance, resolution or motion, as permitted by § 15.2-1425, and no agent of such locality shall take any administrative action, governing the purchase, possession, transfer, ownership, carrying, storage or transporting of firearms, ammunition, or components or combination thereof other than those expressly authorized by statute. For purposes of this section, a statute that does not refer to firearms, ammunition, or components or combination thereof, shall not be construed to provide express authorization.

Nothing in this section shall prohibit a locality from adopting workplace rules relating to terms and conditions of employment of the workforce. Nothing in this section shall prohibit a law-enforcement officer, as defined in § 9.1-101 from acting within the scope of his duties.

The provisions of this section applicable to a locality shall also apply to any authority or to a local governmental entity, including a department or agency, but not including any local or regional jail or juvenile detention facility.

B. Any local ordinance, resolution or motion adopted prior to the effective date of this act governing the purchase, possession, transfer, ownership, carrying or transporting of firearms, ammunition, or components or combination thereof, other than those expressly authorized by statute, is invalid.


Sweet - but I carry a revolver so it doesn’t really affect me

Sure it does. Many localities had ordinances restricting carry. They can't do that any more.

I can carry anywhere in VA unrestricted now so it still don’t matter to me – but good for everyone else, CCW restrictions are gay

Werd. This was a good year too. Several decent gun laws made it through the General Assembly and were signed by the governor this week. They will be effective June 1.

Did you hear that Arizona made it legal for anyone (even non-residents) to carry concealed – no permit necessary?

No...good for them. VA has a few more years to get this stuff through the GA and onto McDonnell's desk before another gun grabbing governor comes in.
