I would be carrying a Glock 19 with the 2 round extension in each mag. I have been shooting it for the past 2 years and have been learning and shooting with a avid CC permit holder and has a long history of serving in the Israeli military as well as private security at many mosques in Austria. I am going to have no problem buying ammunition. In Wyoming I have bought hundreds of handgun and rifle rounds, alone and at the age of 16. My home town is Chicago, but I lived in Wyoming last year and have a license from there. I have been visiting Wy since I was 10 and have wanted to live out there ever since. I came home this year to live with my mom before I go to college. All of my families guns are locked and stowed away in our home in Wy.
I have a few followup questions for you.
1. What are "LEs"?
2. What do you think of a leg holster for when I am riding my motorcycle?
3. When I am in my truck and I have the gun on my hip do I need to take it out of the holster and out it in a "clearly visible" spot? (like the passenger seat)
4. What should I do if I it is raining or cold out and I would like to wear a light jacket? How do I show that I am open carrying a handgun and not CCing without a permit?
5. Should I get the Chief of Police to sign something that shows that I am not breaking any laws and am allowed to open carry?
6. Should I take a class such as the Sig Sauer Defensive Pistol Course? - I was going to wait until I was about 20 yrs old, to help prepare me for my life of conceal carrying.
Thank you for welcoming me and taking time out of your day to help inform me about this!

max, there is something call'd an '
enter' key to provide reading clarity between your individual query(ies) i took the liberty of doing so with your quoted post.
1. Law Enforcement, peace officers, ad nauseam.
2. personally and strictly from my experience when i am on my scoot, i prefer the firearm where i can assure it is secure on my hip by my elbow with a minor movement of my arm. additionally, i am not a fan of those type of holsters since i am not LE, serving in the military etc. there are some who will be along and provide their perspective soon, i am sure.
3. when traveling, i know the law of the land and travel with a small fire safe left with foam cut out for the firearm left open on the passenger seat and if stopped, i close the box and say..."can i help your officer?" hand my DL then state: "am i free to go?" repeating as necessary. (either watch the youtube four 1-hr segments on dealing with the nice LEs or get 'you and the police' book or do both)
side note the key is not on your person but rather put away someplace in the trunk.
4. if your out in the middle of nowhere...eh...if in civilization it is open and exposed for the elements and all to see...no option unless you take it off and put in box mentioned in 3.
5. oh bloody h3ll no...a laminated business sized card from your caregiver(s) saying you were given the firearm with their fone numbers on it in case you can't get away from the 'can i help you officer' mode.
6. there you go and ruin the experience...'prepare me when i can CC' ~ i'm sorry say what? more training sure, but why not consider competition training and such...
