Oh, come now. Clearly that was not a barrage directed at you entirely.Or even mostly. Did I really need to spell out that I was addressing points in general, using a some that you made as a springboard? Who's taking things too personally?
If I was attacking you, you would know it. Toughen up a little, I'm attempting to contribute to meaningful lively debate. Have you noticed most of the threads these days are hardly worth reading? Little or nothing to do with Open Carry often times.If you disagree with my methods or points, I'm ok with that.
'Thanks for the insults'? Really? In the spirit of taking things too personally.....
You're Welcome. I meant to make you feel bad on the internet because we disagree.
:banghead:
Oh, and if you did help organize the Olympia rally, I extend my heartfelt appreciation to you. No sarcasm, no cynicism, just a thank you. I'd buy you a beer if we drank at the same bar.
I don't see why you couldn't, although there are laws against the furtive concealment of weapons. And if you want to get technical, one might even be able to argue that the definition for a handgun might include a pistol gripped shotgun in this state.
More importantly though, other than sheer mental masturbation, I can't see the issue coming up. It's just not practical to conceal a long arm

This made me think of another aspect of someone walking around while concealing a long arm in public. And that is, if someone happened to observe someone who was concealing a long arm (but who had slipped up momentarily and let the long gun become visible) what is the appropriate response? What is the appropriate response from a gun carrier? A ninny lib anti?
If I saw a guy walking down a business district street, wearing a long coat, and I caught a glimpse of what appeared to be an AR under his coat, what should I do? If it were a shotgun, would there be a difference?
What if I were in a mall in, say, Omaha and I saw some young shaggy-haired feller walk in wearingvery baggy sweatshirt and pants--and I noticed as he got in the elevator that he seemed to have an AK in his pants.
Should I confront him? Should I dial 9-1-1? Should I give him the nod of recognition and respect typically offered from one gun guy to another when they cross paths in public?
What would others do?

They are hard to conceal no matter what I wear people still can see I have pretty long arms. The hands at the end of them are the dead give away.

[EDIT]Jeez. Just buy a Judge if you want a shot shell. Or LEARN HOW TO SHOOT.
Although I don't plan on carrying a concealed long arm like the OP asked, I do appreciate your attempt at answering my legal question. Perhaps I should just contact the State AG for his opinion.
Someone with long arms?
