If I had land or a house in a place that I needed to open carry I'd sell it pretty fast...

Is there anything illegal about openly carrying a pistol around your own property now? (Land/house)

I think that comes under the Castle Law but if you live in a close neighborhood firing it might be something else.

I answered "no", though I might wear one of my larger hunting hand-cannons, going to and coming from hunting trips. Other than that, I choose to look like a sheep.

I just voted no and its 80% no/20% yes.

When it passes....in actuality there will be 97% concealing and 3% open.

The only time I open carry is when im hunting a predator contest and ive got my DPMS A15 20BULL, and shotgun mounted in my gun racks on my high rack. The guns with a pile of dead animals on my flatbed gets a lot of attention going down the road.

I voted yes, but only because I lived in Arizona when open carry was the only option. I see a booming market for bbq guns!

You are probably right. I have 4 guys that work for me that all talk like they will. They have a CC license now and hardly ever carry. I figured at best they might carry a few times when the laws are first changed. Other than that, I bet I never see them open carry, or very rarely if they do.
But I will be glad they have a right to.

Well said......We have spent a lot of time in az , have see mabey 3 or 4 people open carry.Not a big deal. I have a CHL and would prefer to stay CHL, but I want the option in certain, very seldom situations.

The same people that couldn't carry concealed will be the same that can't carry open, it won't help the guy that pushed this issue one bit.

Same with me. CHL for 15+ years and I'll plan to keep it concealed.

I prefer concealed, carried for years and I'm just more comfortable that way. I do open carry at the lease and sometimes at the gun shows. (no mag) But when carrying at the show, it is to display the holster not my "old" Glock.

I heard part of the new law is LEO can no longer ask you if you have CHL.

That's not correct, Red.

The law states that, if you are open carrying, LEO may not stop and ask to see your CHL. In other words, if you're walking down the street, with a legally holstered handgun (once open carry passes), and not breaking any other law...LEO cannot stop you and ask for CHL.

However, if you are stopped for a valid reason (just because you are open carrying a handgun is not a valid reason) you are still required to show the LEO your CHL if asked.
