Hey guys I'm starting this thread to see how the police are around your areas. If there is another thread like this I apologize, I searched a little and didnt see another. Basically just post where you live in KY and how the police handle open carrying where you're from. Maybe post how long you've been carrying. Even of you havnt been stopped just say how long youve been open carrying and that you've never been stopped for it.

I'm from Ashland KY and so far I've never been stopped. Ive been carrying for approximately 4 months now. There has been a couple times I've been out walking and had a cop pass by me but never stopped. So far so good though.

Hopefully this thread can get alt of replys. Thanks guys.

I haven't had any trouble trouble in Scott County--except for the former sheriff. I know of a situation in which a deputy did not like a friend of mine OCing in the courthouse. A quick call to the sheriff solve the problem quickly. My experience with Lexington LE is very limited. My only interaction with them was a non-interaction.

They're doing ok. They said thanks for asking... Seriously, as drake said, it's pretty good in the Owingsville/Bath co. area. Sometimes you have to slap one around for violating KRS 65.870, but other than that things are pretty good here.

You need to check your emails more often.
