Hello



I was wondering if I can carry with the gun on my back in a holster on the out side? Like if im doing some thing and having it on my side is not conveniant? Thanks in advance for all your answers.

In Arizona, it is considered Open Carry of a pistol, if it is in a holster, and the holster is wholey or partially visible to casual observation.

In short, if you are wearing an 'outside the pants' holser, and wearing it in the small of your back, instead of your side, it is ok and legal, as long as you are not wearing a coat or shirt to cover it.

For practical, safety, and usage purposes, I would not advise carrying this way.

Small of the back open carry is legal... but I wouldn't recommend it. Try cross draw.
