There is often talk here on concealed carry. What about open carry? Is it legal where you live? No one though Roy Rogers was a danger. ![[Linked Image from i.pinimg.com]](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/4d/03/96/4d0396cc22b7ab5943e74fc4bfc5e24f--dale-evans-western-movies.jpg)

Nowadays, I'd consider an armed "Gay Ranchero" dressed like that a serious threat.

I picked Roy as an example of a well dressed person openly armed.

If you want that kind of attention it's legal here.
Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.

All I know is that in environments where lots of regular folks are carrying open, bad guys tend to be very well behaved.

Open carry is legal here.
But it still requires a permit.
The MN permit is called a Permit to Carry, either or.
I do both, impossible to conceal in the hot summer when wearing shorts and light tops.
Those that think they are hiding their firearm when wearing ultra light summer clothing are only fooling themselves, everyone else can spot them a mile away.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

No open carry in Floriduh. It's a PITA to hide a Ma Deuce.
I am..........disturbed.

I seem to recall that it was illegal in parts of Texas...
Definitely in NY (pistol anyway)
As dumb kids we used to call the police and ask questions.
(It was legal to walk around naked with a loaded shotgun as long as you unloaded it to cross the street.)
Open Carry is pretty much the definition of "to keep and bear arms". is it not?
Is it open carry in the woods? Where do yo draw the line between sporting and carry?

No open carry in Floriduh. It's a PITA to hide a Ma Deuce. It was legal to open carry (and didn't require a license) in Florida from its first colonization till the early 1980s, when its constitution was altered to prohibit it.

Legal here with carry permit. I do it when I need to. Cause I would rather open carry than not carry at all.
Prefer concealed when possible though
Not sure how open carry makes you more of a target than say someone IWB and printing like crazy. Most people aren’t paying attention anymore. Too busy with phones

Open carry says, "Lookit me, ain't I badass?"
What it means is "Shoot this pathetic idiot first."

Open carry is legal here, and I do it when I'm not in town, as I live out in the sticks. Nobody cares at the little country stores, or when you are hauling off trash to the public dumpsters. I choose concealed carry the rest of the time.
Now with even more aplomb

You really think your average or above average schmuck is that astute in their observations in their day to day sheep like existance????? Awful lot of small front pocket pistols and revolvers out their on the market made just for the purpose of concealed carry.......

Not ubiquitous enough locally to put it into practice, though legal with a CHL/permission slip.

Renegade, if that's not a photoshop, it forever explodes Roy and Dale's snow-pure image. (She was, however, about that endowed.)
