Understanding Kentucky Concealed Carry Weapon Restrictions

Which of the following is NOT a restriction on the type of weapon that can be carried concealed in Kentucky?

• A. Automatic firearms
• B. Handguns with a capacity of more than 15 rounds
• C. Silencers
• D. None of the above

Answer: (B)

Kentucky state law allows for individuals to carry concealed weapons, including automatic firearms and silencers, with the proper permits and documentation. Therefore, options A and C are not restrictions on the type of weapon that can be carried concealed in Kentucky. However, option B is incorrect as it is a restriction on the type of handgun that can be carried concealed. Handguns with a capacity of more than 15 rounds are not allowed for concealed carry in Kentucky. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Option D, "None of the above," is also incorrect as it implies that all options are allowed for concealed carry in Kentucky, which is not the case.
