Strangely, a board called CHL forum, about CHL issues might have a preponderence of members who are CHLers replying on threads here.

Isn't it all 2nd ammendment rights?

Er what? What are you trying to say? If a poster complaining on a CHL board about CHLers being the most vocal on the board, wouldn't that be...er logical?

If you go to a board about Ford 150s its logical that the preponderence of posters own or have owned F 150s no? Its kind of a strange argument.

I didn't originate this post. I am commenting that it seems that CHL people seem to be very negative to open carry. From what I have seen many posts seem to reflect that view. I would have thought that people that support 2nd ammendment would have supported open carry too. I didn't intend for this to become an argument, only a reflection of what I see. I am not really sure why CHL people tend to be anti open carry at least from the responses on these posts. Perhaps the majority of CHL are not open carry. I don't see why we can't support CHL and open carry. I am not in favor of the dumb open carry tactics that we all see. I see nothing wrong with having open carry in Texas and CHL for those that prefer concealed. I realize this is a CHL board but there are a lot of open carry posts. Obviously someone has an interest in open carry, perhaps for it and perhaps against it.

The open carry threads always generate so much interest. I wish it were legal in Texas. Not that I want to open carry but I wish it was legal like in Oklahoma. We are in the land of jim Bowie but can not carry a Bowie knife. When I go to "the acres" I have to carry my firearm concealed in my car just in case I get stopped ( I carry a S&W Governor) and then open carry my snake gun when I get on the property. From so many of the threads on this site it almost appears that the CHL people are the ones most upset about open carry. I agree that the people pushing it don't use realistic tactics but if they were politically savy and could get it passed I would applaud them. I also don't know why I can't go into a bar ( I don't drink) and carry concealed. I don't know why I can't carry my automatic knife in San Antonio. Lot's of "I don't know why's" that make absolutely no sense to me but are on the books. I know that the BGs don't care about the different sections of the code. Only honest citizens care and they should be the ones that are allowed to carry.
