I've created a pamphlet for Nevada laws concerning open carry. It prints out onto one page. It mentions all of the NRS numbers for laws, with links to them from browsers.
In the .doc version, in order to access links, hold down control while clicking them. In the PDF, just click them.

Edit History:
Edit1 (June 20, 2008):
I did a very minor edit to the document by removing an extra quotation mark that was pointed out to me from the right side of the second blue quote box, for aesthetic reasons.
In case anyone was curious, there were 11 downloads previous to this very minor aesthetic change.
Edit2 (June 21, 2008): Despite reading this aloud a few times, I left out the word "as" in a sentence. Now it is there.
"There are a few exceptions to the law which, such as being"
Also, I added a period to the end of the sentence in paranthesis at the top mentioning Clark County's registration exception to preemption, and put a closing paranthesis where it was missing in the second paragraph. - 9 AM June 21.
There were 11 downloads previous to this edit too, perhaps by the same people!
July 30, 2008: A new version was posted several posts down but didn't replace this one. I was originally unsure of the utility of the information listed. In the Sept. 6 version this information will be included and two versions will no longer exist.
Aug 4, 2008 Edit: There were 243 downloads prior to correction of faulty information by AnakinsKid.
Sept 6, 2008. (80 downloads prior to new version) - Okay, I think its better to just put all the information into one, whether it concerns concealed or open carry. So all of the information that was in the new alternative one that I had posted several posts down is now in this one. In addition, I realized I never mentioned the restriction in the Legislative building. I also changed the wording referring to the NAC on roadside parks with my improved understanding of it. The federal law section in the july 30 one was more detailed than the one I left for download in this post earlier, so now I included that in here. For NAC 202.020, I have also reworded it to better reflect my understanding of it.
(The September 6 version was downloaded 174 times)
Dec 10, 2008. I ammended it to take into account the new ruling on national parks and wildlife refuges.
Dec 11, 2008. I forgot to mention when the rule takes effect. The pre-publication version of the rule I read said it took effect on the date of publication with the federal registrar. It was publicated with the Federal registrar on Dec. 10, but the publicated version says it takes effect January 9, 2009. (The December 11 version was downloaded 88 times.)
Jan 16, 2009. The law that preempts towns from making regulations is now listed along with the laws that restrict counties and cities. Additionally, the comment on preemption has been reworded, and the laws which regulate these localities are labeled. Also, I removed the mention that the new national park rule took effect on January 9 since it is past the date and it would look cleaner without mention of it. Also, now that the current Attorney General's website has a mention to open carry (the old pamphlet said that the current website made no mention of it), I removed the old reference to the archived attorney general website (found using http://www.archive.org/index.php for http://ag.state.nv.us/ and clicking on the July 24 2002 archive,) and replaced it with the current one. I kind of liked how the old FAQ asked "Can I carry without a permit?" which drove the point of no permit being necessary, but the new one is easier for people to find than the archived version and is more current.
January 16, 2009 (10pm): See the thread about the AG saying local laws still apply: http://opencarry.mywowbb.com/forum36/20658.html. Until this gets sorted out the pamphlet has been temporarily revised to not mention state preemption. Hopefully soon the Jan 16 version I created earlier today can replace it.
(Jan 16 version was downloaded 41 times.)
February 10, 2009: Unfortunately the AG problem still hasn't been resolved, but I have updated the pamphlet again. I reworded the part discussing the preemption law because the one I had hastily assembled in the last version had some long sentences, unclear language, and forgot to mention the registration in Clark County. I also amended the section on roadside parks to mention rest areas, which the regulation also applies to. Also, I added to the section on schools to note that the penalty for loitering near a school while armed is a higher penalty than loitering without being armed.
(Feb 10 version downloaded 42 times)
March 4, 2009: The links in the Feb 10 version of the PDF got broken somehow. I just now noticed it. So, sorry to the people who got the version with broken links. I've now reposted the Feb 10 PDF and now when you click on the blue text it should go to the law on the legislature website again.
March 19, 2009: A federal district court has blocked the national park ruling. So I have amended the pamphlet to take this into account.
(The March 19 .doc version was downloaded 96 time)
July 3, 2009: The pamphlet has been updated to fix links as well as to take into account the new legislation which will allow concealed carry in National Parks on February 22, 2010. The wording of the first paragraph has also been altered. This revision also takes into account the changes in the list of states that Nevada recognizes concealed carry permits from. (Nevada no longer recognizes Utah or Florida but now recognizes West Virginia and Ohio.) Edit2: Fixed a sentence missing a word in 1st paragraph.
(The July 3 doc version was downloaded 38 times.)
August 9, 2009: The pamphlet has been updated to reflect the disappearance of the comments regarding firearms on the AG website, as well as to clarify the federal law section.
The August 9 doc version was downloaded 205 times).
March 16, 2010: The pamphlet has been updated to reflect that firearms are now permitted in National Parks and Wildlife Refuges, and to correct some formatting and reword the first paragraph a bit.
(Mar 16 .doc version downloaded 24 times.)
March 27, 2010: "Class C felony" has been changed to "Category C felony," as that is the proper legal diction for the penalty for illegally concealing a firearm. The federal law section discussing 18 USC 922 (q) had been modified. The font size is now the same as the rest of the paragraph, and I clarified it. It appears that there have been some people charged with 18 U.S.C. 922(q) since Lopez, although its constitutionality has still not been challenged to my knowledge. One time a convicted felon plead guilty to it in 2001 ( http://news.google.com/newspapers?n...M84wAAAAIBAJ&sjid=E90FAAAAIBAJ&pg=2449,304629 ) and another time in United States vs. Tait, the court refused to entertain the constitutionality of the law because Tait already met the exception for being licensed by the state.( http://openjurist.org/202/f3d/1320/united-states-v-tait )
August 11, 2010. The list of state permits that Nevada recognizes has been updated (Nevada now recognizes New Mexico, North Carolina, Rhode Island.) Per the advice of DVC, I also made the wording in the first paragraph more concise and fixed the "unless if" grammar failure.
July 1, 2011. - the list of state permits that Nevada recognizes has been updated. Also, per AB 282, the division of state parks may not pass more stringent regulations. The pamphlet has also been reordered for a more consistent formatting. A brief description of who is eligible to carry a firearm is added, such as the age and criminal records requirements. Also, I added a note mentioning that one must carry their permit if they are carrying concealed. I also made the federal school zone discussion more concise, and rewrote the description of USC 926A in an attempt to reduce confusion over it. Kansas is now correctly written as KS rather than KA. I changed "blood alcohol level above .10" to "blood alcohol concentration of 0.10 or higher" to be more technically correct.
October 2, 2011. - Fixed the first paragraph...some of the wording may have lead to some confusion about whether firearms must be owned... Also, the discussion on open carry age has been clarified.
May 13, 2012. - Improved the grammar and flow of some sentences. Also it now specifies that Nevada residents must have a permit issued by their specific county (previously it was only specified that the out of state permit was not good enough for the Nevada residents, but technically, even a permit issued in Nevada by the wrong county would not be sufficient.)
November 26, 2012- In July, South Carolina's CCW permit is now recognized. The pamphlet now reflects this. Also, now that the law preventing State Parks from creating their own gun laws has been added to the legislature website, the link now goes to the revised statutes html rather than the enrolled bill pdf.
December 16, 2012- NRS 218.542 has been renamed to NRS 218A.905. The pamphlet now reflects this.
March 4, 2013- The Arizona CFP is no longer recognized in Nevada. The pamphlet has been updated to recognize this change.
August 3, 2013- Because the DPS and the NVSCA have changed the CCW reciprocity list, the pamphlet has been changed to reflect this. Rhode Island permits are no longer valid, but Idaho Enhanced permits and North Dakota Class 1 Permits are now recognized.
February 18, 2014- The potential maximum penalty for the NAC regarding roadside parks is now ten times higher as a result of legislation passed last session. The pamphlet has now been updated to correct the outdated information. Also, a reference has been added to the federal CFR regarding VA property and I updated one of the links to go to gpo.gov rather than one of the sights that copies and pastes federal laws and regulations. (Some of the other federal links still go to some of these types of pages because the gpo page is very long and do not have identifiers to directly link to the section in question whereas the mirror sites sometimes do.)
August 5, 2014- NVSCA says LA and WV permits are no longer recognized.
August 24, 2014- Updated to reflect that Illinois permit is now recognized
