Open Carry in Colorado............

[KarlPMann]

Yes, the no carrying in parks only applies to OPEN carry. If you have the CCW and you carry concealed, you're OK. Same applies to government buildings. If they want them restricted, they have to install metal detectors and guards. That's what the big stink was in Colorado Springs with our local nutcase and his shotgun. :roll: Just get the CCW, carry concealed and be happy. It's the best we'll ever do in this state. :wink: Karl.

I open-carried my 9mm Hi-Power a few times.

It just kind of "felt" awkward to me. Like everybody was looking at me.

At the Sporting Goods counter in Wal-Mart, the clerk asked me if I knew the hammer was cocked....

On a somewhat related note, my dad lives a few miles outside of his town. Close enough to his neighbors that they can hear him shooting. He sometimes shoots just to keep them accustomed to hearing gunfire.

Seems like a similar concept with open-carry. If more folks would do it every so often, it wouldn't be regarded as such an oddity.
