I'm thinking about prematurely celebrating passage of open carry. Any recommendations on where to get a flashy bbq gun rig? My wife bought me a Pietta Colr Walker 44 this weekend for our 7th Anniv... Doesn't get much bigger than that for handguns... Although technically it being an "antique" due to the cap & ball action it should have been legal to open carry even before passage of this bill... DPS arrested someone last year for open carrying a cap & ball revolver, so passage of this bill should make it more unquestionable. |

I would turn it pointing DOWN. Not only would that be safer, it would be less likely to slip out that way. I'd also probably strap it so that the strap couldn't be pulled into the trigger since it doesn't have a trigger guard. Call me paranoid.., |

I'm just going to carry a Glock full size in a Safariland Duty Holster. That is about as fancy as I get.
Have a nice BBQ in January of 2016 when it takes effect. New Years Day will be fun around here. I promise that some news crew will be out in front of some gun shop just looking for some yahoo to interview and make look stupid for the 6pm news. Make sure it is not you. |

A BBQ gun needs character. For a proper rig I suggest Jeffery Custom Leather. The product was excellent, time frame was reasonable, and the customer service was excellent. Her is a picture of my rig for court.

So no need to postpone that BBQ Legally yes... although there have been cases where city LEOs have harrassed homeowners for it and even claimed (wrongly) that open carry on ones own property was illegal. A couple of minor caveats... watch out for property lines and stay out of the city's easement area (sidewalk to curb) just to be on the safe side. Also... avoid "brandishing" by which I mean, don't go around pointing or carrying in a threatening (I mean really, not just sheeple that are scared seeing a firearm even if it isn't being carried provocatively) manner. But yes... this is another area where open carry if it passes would remove a lot of what some people ignorant of the actual law might consider "grey areas". |

If it's not a full leather belt and holster then it's not a BBQ rig. You will need stitching, tooled leather and silver conchos.
