    So, here's the question, as a partial owner of a bar, can I legally carry a firearm while the bar is open and operating? I know the concealed carry law of not carrying concealed in an establishment that has a class a permit. But if the owner wants to carry to protect his investments what is the rule there? I'm pretty sure its what I'm thinking and it against the law but I wanted to know if anyone here had any info. Said bar is located in Gretna, LA.......

    Hit-N-Run.... 1800 Stumpf Blvd. Terrytown. It's a small bar where everyone knows everyone. Nothing to brag about. We are about to open a larger bar right next door called "The Endzone", as well...

    I work on Tuesday nights all night. Other than that, my mom (Carla) is there more often than not. We do Domestic beer at 2.25, imports are 2.50, and Shots are 5.00, drink specials daily... NFL jump pools starting soon, pool league if you shoot, dart team is you throw darts.... It's not big or amazing, but if you want a small hole to go to where you can have a couple beers and relax with a TV, it's not to bad.
