Got into an interesting legal debate today with a buddy and a good question came up (and I know this will vary state to state)
Does a CC permit cover something like brass knuckles (assuming your state has not banned them)?
For instance in Montana it is not illegal to own something like a set of brass knuckles, its just illegal to have them hidden on you and adds to charges if used in a crime.
The concealed carry law wording regarding permits here doesnt ever outright say you cant, but that doesnt always exactly mean its legal either.
So, does CC cover something like knuckle dusters? Could you get away with actually using them assuming you had a CC permit? Or would the reputation as a thuggish bottom barrel crime item get you fucked over?

It is a weapon, it can be concealed, if it is not explicitly banned in your state it is covered as a concealed weapon. Georgia, Tennessee, Arizona, all examples of this.

For context, I was telling a story about how the wannabe gangsta in my home town got popped with illegal carry because he used a set of knuckledusters to break a window during a burglary and me and my buddy got curious about their legality.

I seriously doubt this covers knuckle dusters
>would you get fucked?
Yeah, probably.

Well see, thats what my buddy said, but im kinda of the bent that if you had a set and used em to say, beat the shit out of a mugger and he was seriously injured or died if a jury might see it as excessivley brutish and try to frame you as a dangerous unstable sort who WANTED to hurt somebody.
Kind of similar to how cops can get into trouble for having personally purchased weapons mods like laser sights or extended mags on the piece that they use in an officer shooting.
Like you use them properly but a lawyer pressing a lawsuit depicts you as having preplanned the event or somehow encouraged it to happen by using brass knuckles grey legal status to make you look shady.

Well too bad, because you're wrong. It's state dependent. Most of them allow it.
