I'm curious how many would actually open carry vs. who would keep it concealed while out in public. Please only vote if you are a CHL holder. Please expand on why you would or would not open carry. I open carry when at the deer lease, of course, but I'm speaking for when out in public around town.

As a CHL holder, Will you open carry? single choice
	YES
	NO

When it takes effects, I predict a new thread with pics of these people and their Tackleberry rigs

lol who is this guy 6000 plus post and this is the first time ive seen them here?

place is a lot bigger than OT

I want to carry 2 six shooters and start dressing like Paladin.

LOL!

i probably will just for the record...in the pasture

Maybe if I ever go high fence hunting.

I imagine a few dealers at the coin shows / gun shows / ect will open carry though, and I am fine with that.

I would prefer not to, but would like to be able to if the need ever raised.

Why advertise ? Someone sneak up from behind and kill ya for it

The only aspect I like about this is that I won't feel as conspicuous when I carry my larger frame 9mm. Other than that, I have no reason or desire to display a handgun on my side..

Like most of these things where people predict doom and gloom if it passes, it won't be a big deal in the end.

If I feel the need to carry, you can bet I won't be carrying a pistol, I will grab my M14. It is hard to conceal an M14.

cant wait to hear about the open carry folks getting robbed of their firearms.

I don't believe that has really occurred where open carry is permissible.

Right, cause it happens so often in the other 44 states that have open carry

Why advertise? Keep mine concealed...easier to surprise bad people that way...

Really stupid

Why would anybody want to lose the element of surprise ?.

It never seemed to hurt Paladin.

Think about it like this. Walking down a street, bad guy sees 5 guns, or in a store and sees that many, he might just turn around and not try it.

Its just nice to not worry about becoming exposed. I will not open carry expect on my own land or around the house. It will just to nice to have the option.

I won't Open Carry my pistol but i will have less concerns about printing or accidently showing it from under concealment. Open Carry will get yourself attention and i am a fairly shy person...

Or guys with guns out in open get shot first if something goes down. If i was a thug thats what i'd think, get rid of the one that has a weapon in sight.

it will have the same qualifications as concealed carry so the guy this pushed this deal will still be a no-go.
