I am considering retiring and sailing around the USVI.
Is it lawful to keep and bear arms in USVI?
Also, are there any restrictions on recreational fishing around the USVI? My research seems to indicate that there are no onerous restrictions, like in the BVI.
There are strict gun regulations in VI.
