The Department of Interior is considering changing the regulations on guns in national parks. The current policies, allow unloaded and properly stored guns in parks, and protect the rights of gun owners and visitors' safety equally. The proposed new regulations would allow people with concealed carry licenses to carry in a national park in a state if they are allowed to carry in state parks in that state.
