What is the law in Virginia for carrying your shotgun in your truck?
I'm 20 and have cannot obtain a concealed weapons permit. Does it need to be in view at all times, or can it not even by in my truck. Loaded or unloaded.

§ 15.2-915.2. This section empowers the governing body of any county or city to, by ordinance, make it unlawful for any person to transport, possess or carry a loaded shotgun or loaded rifle in any vehicle on any public street, road, or highway within such locality.
So it depends on where you are.

A concealed carry would not matter for a long gun. It is illegal to conceal carry a shotgun or rifle. IOf you look at the site i provided you will see that some municipalities can prohibit loaded transportation. Counties can prohibit loaded carry of a gun used for hunting on public roads.
Looks to me like you carry the shotgun unloaded and in view. No problem.

Loaded shotguns can be in a gun case in the passenger compartment or trunk,
