Of course... Could you not OC the BUG also? No CC, no requirement for permit or showing ID....

Yeah, I guess I legally could, but I'm not real big on unnecessary attention. To me, carrying more than one handgun openly, would almost be asking for unwanted negative attention. I know many folks here disagree, but I just would feel odd doing it.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess my dilemma now is whether I really want to carry a concealed backup while OC.

To rotorhead, I didn't realize they had that extension thing until it was too late. I've been home since August, so the90 day window has long since passed. I didn't mind taking the class though, since my wife would have probably not done it by herself.

I always carry a concealed backup (Kel-Tec .32) but I honestly think you are making much ado about nothing. I have carried concealed for over 10 years and have never been "approached" by a LEO and forced to "identify", even while OC.

Yeah, I've never been approached in the 10+ years of concealed carry either. My concern is now that I open carry, I'm more likely to be stopped at some point for my open carried sidearm because of some scared citizen. I guess if i'll just do what's required if ever c/c while OC, and just tell him and offer up ID which I would otherwise not offer up if I weren't CC. No since in me getting in trouble on the off chance my encounter with an uneducated LEO turns into full detention with pat down and free ride to the magistrate. I imagine at that point it would be too late to inform of my CHP and concealed sidearm.
