Salt Lake Criminal Defense Attorney
Illegal Possession of Weapons
In order to carry or possess a weapon, you must have a license or permit to do so. Possession of a weapon can be a serious criminal offense, as well as a number of other weapons-related charges: carrying a concealed weapon, felon in possession of a firearm, discharge of a firearm or brandishing a firearm. It is also illegal to sell or distribute firearms or other deadly weapons without the particular license to do so. And on top of all of that, there are particular types of deadly weapons that are illegal for a regular citizen to be in possession of, no matter what. This may include nunchaku (nunchucks), automatic rifles and machine guns.
