Is it legal to carry a concealed pistol in a bar or tavern under Washington CPL rules?

Yes, always
No, never
Yes, if you don't consume alcohol
Yes, but only with permission from the bar owner

The correct answer is: No, never

Carrying a concealed pistol in a bar or tavern in Washington State under CPL rules is restricted. In general, the law explicitly prohibits carrying firearms in establishments that primarily serve alcohol. This means that it is illegal to carry a concealed pistol in a bar or tavern setting, regardless of whether you consume alcohol or not. Other options consider various conditions under which carrying might be allowed, but they do not align with the established legal framework in Washington. For example, while some states may have exceptions for those who do not consume alcohol, Washington's law maintains a clear and strict prohibition. Therefore, the correct understanding is that it is never permissible to carry a concealed weapon in a bar or tavern under any circumstances in Washington.
