Great video and very sound closing statements. I’m in Arizona, you can carry concealed without a permit or open carry. Pro and cons to each as well stated in the video in reply #13.
I rarely carry open now days. On hunting trips, among other ”gun people” etc I tend to carry open. If I‘m in the movie theatre, accompanying the wife on a shopping trip, church (yes I conceal carry at church, many in my area do ), at school activities I’ll carry concealed if allowed by law. I tend to avoid, when I can, places I can not legal carry. Including Walmart which I avoid at all cost, can’t stand the place.
In some scenarios I carry open and not everyone appreciates it, outback hiking trails is a good example. Where I use to only see fellow hunters out in remote places I now see more and more people who found the place on FB, IG or by way of their local hiking club. Many of these people are new to the southwest and don’t share positive view of firearms. In those cases I say too bad, I’ll enjoy the right when in mountain lion country, wolf country or bad human beans country. I try to be sensitive and polite but I also try and use common sense.
