no. he's carrying it openly, which is allowed on private property, apparently. -- nm - znufrii Aug 11, 10:52 1
- and the link to the TPM article has a still of the gun and holster. -- nm - znufrii Aug 11, 10:53
no, you need a special permit for carrying concealed. -- nm - loosilu Aug 11, 10:52 14
- So you can walk around, gun in your hand, totally legal? But if you store it in your pocket without a permit, you're breaking the law? -- nm - Loyola Aug 11, 10:53 13
  - as long as you're on private property twith the owner's permission, in New Hampshire, yes. -- nm - znufrii Aug 11, 10:55 3
    - (at least, that's the impression I'm getting from the article) -- nm - znufrii Aug 11, 10:57 2
      - furthermore, it's not "in hand" but carried openly in a holster. - znufrii Aug 11, 10:58 1
        
        Ah ok, that makes a little more sense. -- nm - Loyola Aug 11, 11:02
  - These laws vary greatly from state to state. -- nm - ty97 Aug 11, 10:55
  - it varies according to the state. -- nm - loosilu Aug 11, 10:55 6
    - That's crazy. Say you're walking down the street, and you're the nervous type, in a rough neighbourhood, so you bring your gun, without a permit to - Loyola Aug 11, 10:58 5
      - If you're openly carrying a gun, the police would probably ask to see your permit -- nm - Roger More Aug 11, 11:02
      - if it's concealed, they're not gonna see it in the first place. -- nm - loosilu Aug 11, 10:59 3
        
        But you pull it out anyway in case they stop and frisk you. -- nm - Loyola Aug 11, 11:00 2
        
        normally you don't get frisked for nothing. -- nm - loosilu Aug 11, 11:04
        
        see my distinction above re: brandishing versus open carry. -- nm - znufrii Aug 11, 11:00
  - As long as the weapon is legal (registered and all), yes. That's how it sounds. -- nm - Jim Aug 11, 10:54
