Not sure if this is appropriate on this site - but here goes. I want to pick up a collapsible baton - like an ASP or one of its cousins for times when pistol concealed carry is taboo and when my knife might also draw unwanted attention. Does anyone have a preference for batons? Preferably something of a concealable size. Are these restricted the same as a gun - like in court houses, post offices, etc?
 
What Graham says is valid. I used to have an ASP left over from work, so when I moved to another state I naturally brought it along. Then I found out that only on duty law enforcement people can carry a collapsable baton in Washington state.
