Excellent. I am a big fan of open carry, of course i'm a bigger fan of open and concealed carry, that way one can wear a longer coat if they want to. Also keeps criminals on their toes, who knows who could be carrying.

I'm not sure if or where you can legally carry a sidearm in public the way you are describing.

Here in Tennessee our handgun carry permit is just that a handgun carry permit. It doesn't matter if you decide to carry open or concealed. Either is 100% legal here in TN. Of course standard rules do apply, can't carry in a place where alcoholic beverages can be drank on premises (But you can carry in places like Grocery or Liquor stores where you can buy alcoholic beverages for consumption off premises).

seems to make sense to me - i think there are similar laws in TX - no loaded guns in bars

I believe in Wyoming you can open carry almost anywhere, but business owners can make you remove them, and you cant carry (open or concealed) in bars.

Restrictions on government gatherings too (voting, town meeting types of things, city council etc.).

If I so choose I could walk around town with my shotgun loaded and strapped to my back with my rifle and a handgun, all out in the open down main street and nobody could do a thing about it.

What I was saying is that in public it has to be concealed or not concealed. Not ambiguous in the way that was mentioned.

Colorado seems to be all over the place with it. Obviously certain areas apply...such as businesses or schools. But otherwise, it boils down to jurisdiction. I could travel from say Denver and pass through one town that says no open carry and the next it's ok. But, I'd have to research more into it.

If the state in question allows both, and the person in question was licensed/entitled to both, I really don't see why it wouldn't work that way. I can't see anyone going out of their way to make a law saying if you conceal the weapon it has to stay concealed or vice versa. makes no sense to me.

Police don't have to be logical.  Undecided

I'd rather not give people confusing information that might get them in trouble with the law. For example, watch the 3rd video.

I understand what you're saying though.

Essentially, you should check with local/state laws for any prohibitions/restrictions on open/concealed carry. Here in Kentucky for example, both open and concealed carry are legal, you can openly carry at age 18, and apply for a concealed carry permit at the age of 21, which allows for the concealed carry of deadly weapons almost everywhere, except federal buildings and schools, et cetera.

Move to Alaska.  No permit required for open or concealed, though if you conceal sloppily, (as opposed to leaving it open or actually concealing it) people will think you're a dumbass.  The rules for where you can and cannot carry, and for who you must inform don't change based on the visibility of your gun.  Interestingly, in a state that allows people to carry however they please, concealed carry is far and away the more popular of the options.

You know, Saigh, now that I'm "Flying Solo" so to speak, Alaska's starting to look more and more promising.  I need to look into Paramedic jobs up there.

Oddly enough, Kalifornia allows open and concealed carry (far as I can tell) outside of incorporated areas. Most towns and cities are incorporated but there are still lots that aren't. My town is incorporated but my parents isn't.
