Hello everyone,
I am a student in Oklahoma from Kansas, I have permanent residency in Kansas and plan on returning once my education is complete. I have a conceal carry permit in Kansas which through reciprocity allows me to conceal carry in Oklahoma, BUT Oklahoma requires citizens to have a license to open carry. Since Kansas does not require a license to open carry can I open carry in Oklahoma? I have contacted the Oklahoma Bureau of Investigations and they have not gotten back to me.
If I open carry in Oklahoma or accidentally expose while I am conceal carrying will my conceal carry license cover me? I Kansas Yes, in Oklahoma?
So far I have found this in research:
SB 1733
Section 1290.26.
RECIPROCAL AGREEMENT AUTHORITY
