    My understanding is that partially concealed is considered "concealed" & you'd better have a CCW to back it up.

    With this logic though, it would seem that the definition of a concealed firearm is dependent on whether the holster was concealed. Therefore, an open carry holster is visible which means open carry. A concealed carry holster (IWB) is hidden, which would mean concealed pistol. I do not agree with this.

    eta: In addition, if I were to CC into Walmart (sells liquor for offsite consumption so CC is legal, OC is not) and I print, then technically I am OC. However, with your definition of partially concealed being "concealed", then even though I was printing, the pistol was partially concealed by my shirt and therefore its CC. I think you'd have a very hard time convincing an officer of this.

    Open or concealed carry is not dependent on the visibility of the holster.

    With that said, I still would not use a deep concealment holster (such as one that would put the back of the grip right at belt line) as an open carry holster. That is too borderline.

    That's a new one on me. Can you quote a source for this?
