I have started to run more, since yo101jimmy started running with me, and we are planning on running 7 milers, (okay some walking) (okay, probably a lot of walking)

Anyway, for a longer run such as this, I would like to have my weapon with me, but don't want to OC. So how could I keep the firearm with me without having it concealed?

You don't want to OC or CC? I wonder if you stick it where the sun don't shine if that's considered concealed... :shock:

haha j/k, but I don't know what you mean. You could securely encase it, but that seems bothersome. If you have your CC permit, check out: www.smartcarry.com

I don't have my permit. I'm only almost 20.

I guess maybe I'll have to have it securely encased. Sigh.

I don't want to OC, because it would interrupt my run and screw up my heart rate if I had to stop to talk to a LEO.

Sounds like you need a taser or pepper spray. I really don't think you'll want to run with a locked case in your hands.

I wear a hydration pack, and if that would count as securely encased than I would be good. But I don't think it does.

You mean like a camelbak? Unless you put it in a locked case first, it would be concealed.... and even then I don't know what it means to hide a case from sight (stupid nuances).

Don't throw it in the camelbak by itself.

The case does not need to be locked, I know that. So quit saying locked. That's federal law, and there aren't any school zones on my route. Lucky me.

As I understand the law, that would be fine.But I'mfairly certainany officer would charge you with carrying a concealed weapon... Point is, it would be an illegal search if he were to find it anyways.

We have had this discussion before. To not be considered concealed, the weapon needs to be [Utah] unloaded, and securely encased.

[font="Arial,Helvetica"] (18) "Securely encased" means not readily accessible for immediate use, such as held in a gun rack, or in a closed case or container, whether or not locked, or in a trunk or other storage area of a motor vehicle, not including a glove box or console box.[/font]

You ever see all those guys wearing fanny packs, and think to yourself, "I bet he's packin."? Well, I bet they don't need a permit to carry in a fanny pack [or a CamelBak] as long as it is unloaded. A zipped up fanny pack, or back pack sounds like a closed container to me.

Never thought of it that way SGT. But YES, by golly, a fanny pack IS by the very definition "Securely encased" for a NON-Permit holder.

BUT remember the part of 76-10-501 (15) that says

15) "Readily accessible for immediate use" means that a firearm or other dangerous weapon is carried on the person or within such close proximity and in such a manner that it can be

retrieved and used as readily as if carried on the person.:uhoh:

Clark Aposhian sent me a text back saying that a Fanny Pack is OK as long as it's NOT on the Person as per 76-10-501 (15)

Well it kinda sounds like your best option just might be OC on the cammel back, I under stand you don't want to be stopped while your running, that would suck, but I doubt it would happen every time you went out.

Just expect it to happen eventually I guess, it would just be better to have something for your defence get stoped and questioned, than to not have anything and need it.

The Camel Pack is still as if carried on the person.

He is sorry out of luck. OC....IS the only option til he gets a Permit.

whoa buddy, calm down... i'm trying to help. I naturally assumed you would pass a school zone on a 7 mile run. Luckily you don't. But if you stick it in a bag, then you're concealing and you can't argue your way around that.

For future reference, I would have preferred "hey, I'm not going by any schools but thanks for the concern".
