I recently started carrying my firearm openly on the encouragement of a friend that open carrys 100% of the time. I recently moved here and have met more than a few local cops that are clueless on gun laws. I don't have a permit to concealbut have signed up for the class. During the last few months I have been approached by the police and found that the either really don't know the law on open carry or are just trying to convince people that it's illegal.
Anyway maybe it's just because I'm on the road 12-14 hours per day and eat 100% of my meals in restaurants (while open carrying, if no ABC licence to serve) but I seem to attract a lot of attention from the cops here in NC over open carry.Is open carry a hassle in North Carolina ? I can't imagine concealing comfortably when it's95 degrees outside. This winter I willprobably concealmore often butI looked at a few options for bellybands etc. for summer carry and prefer my uncle mike's holster.
