    OC in WY by non resident

    So I've tried searching and can only find clarification on OC in YNP, but not the rest of the state. I am a resident of WA. My wife and I wish to plan a trip to Cody. Wyoming does not recognize my CPL so I can't CC. But I can't tell if the state law intends that I can't posses at all (ie OC) if...

    Motorcycles

    So what is the consensus? I know the RCW says that to carry loaded IN a vehicle you need the CPL. For those that ride and those that have studied the laws or had encounters: is a CPL required to OC loaded ON a motorcycle? I tried a search and came up empty. May have been my search method but I...

    WOT: Need Some Help With A Project

    Ballard Locks

    On Sunday, May 22 2011, my wife, friend and I were visiting the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks (Ballard Locks). I was openly carrying my Beretta 92F in a Blackhawk SERPA holster.

    Slightly off topic

    This isn't solely about OC but it is firearm related. I have a sight for my business. I have recently added a section where I will be uploading the videos I used to host on YouTube and I also have added a forum section. The goal of this forum will be more focused on the gunsmithing/design/help...

    Legal Transfer Advice

    Ok, this is slightly off the OC topic but it is specifically handgun and laws related. I am hoping any of the lawyer folks on here can give me a few free pointers. So, here's the situation. I have a customer who purchased a handgun and I'm doing the transfer for it. State law RCW 9.41.090...

    Good encounter at the Kitsap Transfer Station

    While at the "dump" and tossing out the recyclables, a very young boy there with his family saw my XD and in a very loud and distinct voice said "Hey, you have a gun". LOL With a big grin, I replied "Yep, I sure do." Then his dad said "That's so he can protect himself" to which I added, "and my...

    Viking Fest

    imported post Has anyone any experience in OC at Viking Fest? We're going tomorrow morning and I'm considering OCing. I know there is no "legal" reason why I can't, but I'm not sure if the venue operators have prohibited it. Marcus

    Is it crazy people week?

    imported post For the first time in 15 years of carrying, I actually had to draw on someone. Some young guy came pounding on my sliding glass door a couple hours ago, so I'm on edge since we're very rural and no one should be on our property. He yells that someone is trying to beat him and his...

    Good OC experience in Port Orchard today

    imported post Had to go in and fix a brain fart on a state pistol transfer form. Got a phone call as I was walking to the Sheriffs office, so I stood outside for about 10-15 minutes chatting with a potential customer. Several people passed by without comment, though I think one looked at my...
