OK folks, just like the unlicensed travelers' tab fills an important niche in gun rights tracking, so will the new entry for each state for "Min Age to Open Carry."
John and I already researched PA & VA long ago - their age is 18.
What do we mean by "Min Age to Open Carry?"
We mean, at what age, in a given state, & without parental supervision, may a law abiding 18 year old US Citizen legally walk down the street openly carrying a handgun in a holster?
In most states, this will be 18 years of age, but we want to get it right.
What we need from experts in a given state is to tell us the answer, and cite to an authority (e.g., the min age to OC is state X is YY; I know this b/c code section ___, which can be viewed at this link, ____,provides that it is unlawful to possess handguns if you are under YY years of age, or somthing to this effect). If there are state specific wrinkles we need to know about, like MO car carry, let us know that too!
You can post ehre, but if you have the info handy and are sure of yourself, and are ready to update your state, email it John and me.
Thanks for making OCDO a great web site!
