Open Carry - License visible to the public as well

#1

Post by sircas »

I am thinking that visibly displaying your CHL (clear plastic case or office's type badge wallet) around your neck or right next to your gun on your belt would be great! If you are Openly carrying a firearm then openly carry your CHL.

Will probably save some . harassment! Just a thought!

Sounds like an MDA idea. Do you want everyone knowing your personal information? Do you drive down the road holding your Driver License out the window?

Great idea! Why don't you add your Social Security card and your credit cards as well? That way no one will ever question you about anything. </sarcasm>

I was going to hang it around my neck, but was afraid that it would not be visible to an LEO if an encounter occurred. I just ordered a tshirt that has a photo of my license on the front and back at 400% scale.

I figure this will provide instant verification to any LEO or citizen that I am a certified good guy.

I've always liked the ID rig that Dog the Bounty Hunter has. And he does not even have a gun.

And a bad one at that sircas. Concealed means concealed. And I believe the harassment thing is greatly overstated. ;-)

And welcome to the forum! Glad to have you with us. :tiphat:

Concealed it's Concealed but he's talking about open carry.

Still a bad idea. A badge on the belt is much better than a license.

Surely you can't be serious.
