Jeff, I agree it is completely legal. I agree that you should not have problems while OC'ing. But that's likely not to be the case.

I would say, "Carry a gun you would trust your life with, in a holster you can draw from that has adequate retention".

For you, I will add, know the statute(s) that make it legal for you to carry in LA and try to have a good idea of the laws the officer is going to quote when he tells you it's illegal.

Good luck, and carry on.

If you trained and practiced in the use of it, carry on!

Just remember that if you leave Louisiana, you may not be legal. Otherwise, good luck.

When I was 19 the Army trusted me with a M16, M60, M1911a1 and all kind of other firepower so why not you.
