      Is Colion Noir right about open carry?

      Colion has had a couple videos out on why he doesn't open carry. This rebuttal video that's pro-open carry was posted today. Thoughts?

      Mr. Walker won't OC again...

      Situational awareness. I'm glad this situation turned out well. OCers have lost another one. I wonder if his decision is a hasty or permanent one. Bearing ArmsMan Attacked In Walmart Won't Open Carry Again - Bearing Arms

      Open carry is not grounds for even a Terry Stop. Fourth Circuit agrees with me-

      After having the chance to read the text of the decision, it's truly vindicating for those in RKBA circles as well as for the fourth amendment. I break down why the Fourth Circuit got it right and highlight some excerpts from the decision. 13C - Thirteen Colonies: Open Carry is not grounds for...

      Dumb question time: open carry + lightning storms?

      Okay, I honestly don't know the answer to this so if at all possible hold the snickering. The Missus and I were taking a walk last night. It wasn't raining but a thunderstorm was parked over head and there was thunder and lightning. The lightning was striking pretty close. Here's the dumb...

      LTCH... Do I have to provide if asked?

      Ok guys, for whatever reason I can't seem to find a straight answer on this topic.

      Great OC Expiriences

      I OC most of the time. I have had so many great conversations with people, and met one of my best friends as a result. I was out running errands, stopped at Radio Shack in South Bend on Ireland. The cashier asked about my sidearm. He thought it was an XD. I told him it was a Glock 19. We talked...

      Open Carry - Double Cross Draw

      I was at Meijer this evening and saw an old man open carrying. He had a firearm on his left and right hip, but...they were both cross draw. Anybody ever carry like that? It seems impractical to me. Just wondering if anybody else carries cross draw on their belt/hip. I can more easily...

      First Time Open Carry at Bank

      I open carry. When I got my license to carry, I carried concealed for about the first year. I started carrying open about six months ago. Every time I went into the bank, it was cold outside, so I wore a coat, thus concealing my handgun. Today was the first time I actually carried open into...

      I know (or at least hope) that state law will not be suspended just because Indianapolis is hosting the Super Bowl in less than 2 weeks but as a LTCH holder and resident of downtown Indy, I wonder how this event will affect daily carrying. Does anyone know details of the increased security? (ie...
