No CCW is required here either and open carry is allowed. That being said, if you open carry in Anchorage you will have visitors. A few cops will harass you but over they are just responding to a call from a scared liberal saying a guy has a gun. They usually just tell you to please conceal it.

Most folks go concealed but they don't go out of there way to hide it. I know I don't. If I bend over and my 1911 shows and some liberal doesn't like it, they can kiss my a$$
