I get more than a few hits here on searches for "louisville gun laws". I expect some are due to the upcoming NRA Annual Meeting and the 2nd Amendment Blog Bash. Even though I have links to the Kentucky Revised Statutes, I have not provided any links to the Louisville gun laws for a simple reason.
There aren't any.
That's right, The People's Republic of Metro Louisville doesn't have any gun laws. Several years ago the KY Legislature passed a preemption law.
65.870 Local firearms control ordinances prohibited.
No city, county or urban-county government may occupy any part of the field of regulation of the transfer, ownership, possession, carrying or transportation of firearms, ammunition, or components of firearms or combination thereof.
Effective: July 13, 1984
No mish-mash patchwork of laws here, just go to one place, the K.R.S, and you're good all over the Commonwealth. Just look to the left, not something I would normally say, and you'll find all the info you need regarding firearms and concealed deadly weapons and your visit to Kentucky. Look forward to seeing y'all in Louisville.
