    Shreveport Health Care town hall today

    imported post Obama's lackeys are coming by tour bus to County Market on 3709 Greenwood Rd from 330-530pm. I'm planning on going, but not sure about open carrying. It's being held in the parking lot of a private business. I'd think it would be fine until asked to leave, right?

    I saw a guy open carry yesterday...

    imported post There were no external marks of an LEO, just a big fat Glock on his right side. Even though we walked within 2 feet of the man, the other two people I was with didn't even notice he was carrying. He walked right into the post office to check his P.O. Box and left.

    National Open Carry BBQ

    imported post I'm a newbie to the whole gun thing, and I would like to open carry, but to be quite hones, I'm a scaredy-cat. I think my biggest fear is being at a store without knowing it is within 1000 ft of a school and being arrested for it. Anyways, maybe we could have an open-carry...

    Schools, gun-free zones, and handguns

    imported post I've found Louisiana law which prohibits guns on school property, but I have not found anything prohibiting carrying within 1000 ft of a school. What's the law?

    Open Carry in Louisiana

    imported post I've read some of the legal postings regarding open carry, but I feel like I'm missing something in terms of restrictions. All I've found is that you can't carry a gun on school property. There are many laws restricting concealed carry, but I've only seen the law regarding...

    Disadvantages of Open Carry?

    imported post I've heard many people on other forums complain that they feel they lose the element of surprise when open carrying. I don't feel that's the case. The one time I've open carried, I packed in the 4-4:30 position, just behind my newly developed love-handle. Looking in the mirror, I...

    First Open Carry experience last night

    imported post I bought an XD45c a couple of weeks ago. Last night, the wife and I took the dog for a walk and I wore my XD on my hip in the 4-5 o'clock position with the holster which came with the XD. I wore a black t-shirt to minimize the visibility. I was a little skiddish at first, but...
