Ok, so i really don't like taking somebodies "word" for granted when people tell me things. regardless if it's this subject, car subjects or anything else. I like to research.
But sometimes i have to ask for help with the research. specially with something as touchy with legal/illegal as guns.
So I was under the impression that having the CCW gives you ADDED benefits with open carrying.
but today I had another carrier tell me that I was ILLEGAL for open carrying if i had a CCW on me.
So I'm asking you to help me clear this up. because I don't remember reading anything that said "if you have a CCW on you, you can NOT open carry.
Did i miss something in the books anywhere???
To explain what I was doing, incase anybody else sees something I may have been doing wrong if at all. I was working on my property all day, carrying as usually in a OWB holster, and then had to run some errands and after that rode my bike 1hour to a friends house to help him work on his bike. I carried all day, on and off the bike, and in the stores. Part way through the day another friend with CCW joined, and saw me open carrying and asked if i had a CCW. I said "yes". He asked if i had it with me. I said "yes". That's when he told me I was illegal. Him and me have already had some other small disagreements over stuff, and I usually try to e-mail him with links to where what is actually written in the law, rather than just "he said, she said" type stuff. So this time i just ended the conversation immediately with "how about we just agree to disagree for right now" since i didn't want to get into yet another discussion that wasn't going anywhere.
so what do ya think???
