Open Carry Question

[Irving]

So once you have a permit, then what is the definition of concealment? If you don't have a permit, it is because you are avoiding lawful detection, but if you carry the same way with a permit, then what is the concealment doing?

Poorly written IMO.

I should have included the ordinance as well as the definition:

Sec. 16-83. Carrying concealed deadly weapons. (a) It is unlawful for any person to knowingly carry a knife or firearm concealed on or about his person; provided, that this chapter shall not apply to persons in their own domiciles or places of business or on property owned or under their control at the time of the act of carrying, or to persons in private automobiles or other private means of conveyance who are carrying such a weapon for the lawful protection of their or another's person or property or for any other legal purpose.

(b) Nothing in this section shall apply to peace officers or members of the Armed Forces of the United States or Colorado National Guard acting in the lawful discharge of their duties.

(c) Nothing in this section shall apply to persons who possess a valid permit or license to conceal such weapon or weapons, which license or permit was duly issued pursuant to applicable state or federal law.
