i've recently enlisted in the kentucky army national guard, and while at the most recent drill our sergeant told us about how we have the right to carry a firearm while we are in uniform. i'm just about to turn 20 next month and i got a rock island armory 1911 .45 acp for an early birthday and Christmas gift.

my question is, what is the age limit for open carry, and also if anybody has any resources for me to read the laws and learn my rights to the smallest of detail. one other thing I've been seeing around in other posts and some thing on YouTube is that we aren't allowed to open carry a loaded weapon, anybody know the details on that?

any help is greatly appreciated. the more i learn the better off i become.

Legal age to OC in Kentucky is 18.

Learning your rights in the smallest detail will take a bit more time and effort. :D
Start by learning all applicable gun laws for your state, spend some time with seasoned veterans of OC, follow this forum and continue to ask questions - just do your homework first.

Oh and "Yes" you can carry locked & loaded with that 1911 - it's the only way to travel.
