RICHMOND, Va. Although the recreational use of marijuana became legal in Virginia on July 1 and it is legal to possess a firearm, Virginians cannot do both. If I smell it, I know that youâre using, itâs my decision not to sell it to you, said Gene Landry, owner of Old Town Silver Exchange in Henrico.
Outside the pawnshop, there s a sign in front of the door that reads, if you smell of Marijuana or Alcohol, we will not sell you a firearm .
