Yes as I stated in previous post anyone can open carry as long as you can legally posses a handgun. No open carry in a "vehicle" unless you have a CCW. If no CCW firearm must be unloaded in vehilce for transport. This will change somedayQuote:

The last thing i need is to have a guy pull it, over my driving into a gas station in the position he wanted, and he starts waving it around in a threat..This actually happened in Millington at Kroger gas, a few months ago..I do not always have a firearm with me..or in the car..Maybe that is a mistake?
Toolman,,No longer true here in Tenn...We had to remove all the firearm signs at the gates and go with the new red slashed,Banned Pistol and Knife,symbols at all entry doors...Not a real big deal, except we drive thru some very dangerous areas to get to work, some people here have lost windows due to fired shots, while inroute???Over three inch knife is still illegal, except at Airport, all Knifes are banned..Quote:

Exactly, and since i am a real senior i am not as fast or keen as i once was...But it hanging out loose, looks bad even on a cop..My shoulder holster even has a quicksnap..Quote:

Criminals don't care about the law in the first place so it doesn't matter to them if open or conceal carry is legal or not.Quote:
