Hello everyone in Idaho. I'm taking a trip tomorrow evening through Sunday to Idaho. I currently live in Utah and going to be driving up. I currently don't have a Concealed Carry Permit (still waiting for it to come in the mail) and OC here in Utah. What the laws there in Idaho?

Oh, going to Idaho Falls for a Family Reunion.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

LoL! If I skipped out on my wife's family reunion to go camping and shooting she'd kill me! I wish they weren't the same weekend.

Outsider,

ID's open carry laws are awesome. You can OC pretty much anywhere with a loaded gun. Only places exempted are k-12 Schools and Select .gov buildings. Federal and courts/prisons. Other than that, if somebody complaigns about your OC'ing thats alright unless they ask you to leave.

Enjoy your visit.

Fully loaded, round in the chamber... no dum "two actions" thing... just carry your gun like a real man should (hot), and you'll be good to go. No K-12 schools, past metal detectors at airports, or jails/courthouses, and 3-4 government buildings downtown Boise, and you'll be just fine. Can't be intoxicated, but legal to carry in a bar etc. Enjoy your stay!

By any chance can you guys post the laws from your Criminal Code because I can't seem to find it. Not set up the same way Utah's is.

You're good to OC in Idaho, anytime. I know good to check the regs, but you are fine. I OC'd today, not a glance or second look with shorts, sandals a short sleeve button down and my evil black pistol on my hip. I love my Idaho.

The wife made me keep it in the car during the family reunion. Didn't get to carry it fully loaded for the first time. :( Sad... Oh well.
