Hello everyone,
I am unfortunately very naive when it comes to guns, despite being born and raised here in Arizona. However, I've read up on laws and would just like some clarification.
Because of my age, I cannot yet apply for a CCW so my questions are for open carry laws:
-Do you receive some kind of card or permit for open carry, or do you just need documentation of a legal purchase of a handgun (or not?)?
-How does open carry work in a vehicle? I have read that as long as it’s in view (and unloaded?) or secure in say the trunk it’s ok? (My glove box in the front has a lock on it, would that be ok?)
On a side note, I’ll be looking for a handgun for purchase, and again have no idea what kind to buy. I am a female, and although I know that it will take time to learn how to keep steady regardless of gender, a smaller and lighter sidearm would be preferable.
Sorry for my ignorance, please feel free to add anything you think is relevant that I should know!
