Why sign up for an OC forum if you hold such views? You will not be popular here. I am not trying to be mean, or tell you that you shouldn't post here or anything like that. As far as I know(and am concerned), all are welcome. I'm just curious as to what you hope to gain out of membership here.PA is an open carry state with no carry permit required to do so but I do not open carry. I do not want the attention nor am I trying to show it off. It's there strictly for protection of myself and my family. You do need a license to CC in PA and its very very easy to get if you are not a convicted felon. I have had my CC permit for over 20 years

i voted 100% of the time, the caveat being when it's legal. Sometimes i have to go to the communist country of maryland, where i can't.

........ I also do not want my kids getting the worng impression seeing me with a gun 24/7 . Just my opinion but if you have a CC permit? Why would you need to open carry? ..................Sent from my Galaxy S///
I am a fan of guns and all open platforms about them. I do not choose to open carry but I have done it especially going to and from the range and such. I don't begrudge anyone from open carrying at all just the fact that I have carried concealed for so long its my preference to do so. I also do not want my kids getting the worng impression seeing me with a gun 24/7 . Just my opinion but if you have a CC permit? Why would you need to open carry? Again I hold nothing against the practice at all but I guess in some states its look at differently than others. Even though PA is an open carry state with no permit required. You hardly ever see anyone doing so i mean its a rare sight. But to each his own!! Enjoy your 2nd amendment rights!! I know I do!!!

I take offense to this. I OC at the 100% level. I live in the wonderful State of Washington where the Second Amendment lives. My children see me everyday wearing a weapon, well holstered, on my hip. I see this as being a role model to my children. I took each of them to the range to learn how to safely deploy and employ a weapon. What "wrong impression" am I giving my children. You sound like you are embarrassed , or guilty for carrying and choose to hide it from your children.
On the second part...... In Washington you cannot (by law) carry loaded in a vehicle without a CPL (con pist lic) and to lessen the chance of unnecessary handling, I applied for and was approved for a CPL. I do not "need" to open carry, I want to.
