it says it has to be unloaded, i would only carry it if it was A. loaded or B. i had a loaded clip with me. im not going to carry it just for fun unless it was some costume party. no reason to have a unloaded gun with you, unless you have ammo with you

nevada is a right to carry state. i lived there for 2 years and always wanted to carry a gun, but never did.
i don't think it would be any different if i could carry here.
i would never carry an unloaded gun, that is just asking to get shot.

see the thing about open carry is that it is legal almost everywhere, just hunting anything you have a gun out in the open and that is perfectly legal. the fucked up thing is liberals see a gun on your belt and they panic and call the police, technically you caused a 'public disturbance' and can now be arrested for disturbing the peace or disorderly conduct. i dont get it, people dont go ------- crazy when they see a cop with a pistol on their belt or a national guardsman with his rifle so why do people freak out when they see a laymen carrying. i know some military guys that ------- scare me and i dont trust them at all.







cliffs..
---- liberals, scare then with your scary guns

i open carry, and have for years off and on.

since i have concealed permits in wash and oregon, the permit trumps any local laws or ordinances so i'm free and clear wherever i go. including public property (schools included)

no one has EVER made a scene or said anything to me.

I would carry, but concealed.

Ohio allows CCW, but I have a problem.

I need something that can be drawn while sitting in a car (crossdraw most likely) but also easy to conceal while walking.

Wear jean shorts and a knit shirt limit this. It's no longer a big issue with me since my one stop on my courier route took me thru a back part of Cincy is gone......but would still like to carry.

While I like my Glock G22 and Ruger P91, I would buy a Walther PPS for carry concealed.

I would carry, but concealed. Otherwise, you got douches flipping out or are showing a criminal exactly where your gun is. I'd rather surprise them with a loaded gun.

I wouldn't

But only cause I'm not legally allowed to touch a firearm cause I was convicted of a DUI. Apparently they concider me a 'violent offender' cause I had a couple too many and got pulled over couple houses down from mine
