They do. Now North Las Vegas tires to enforce their City law that says you can't carry a gun, concealed or not, within their city limits even though it's against Nevada state law and illegal on their part. They have a ton of legal problems over this and the Police officers I know from that department will not enforce it. Still...best not to open carry there.

Laurie works for the Las Vegas Metro Police Department here and knows the guns laws VERY well. She even has officers who will call her for advice. lol If you have any questions I know she would be happy to advise you further. PM me and I'll give you her cell number if you'd like.

Can you just PM me her number directly -- I have lots of stuff I'd like to "discuss" with her... I'd be willing to pay her attorney bills to dump your sorry azz... and I have a few other proposals she might be willing to listen to. :D

The way she spends money, even you would be broke my friend. There's a reason I'm still working.

:G-Dub:

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Good answer!

I would think this is completely unenforceable. They (the county or city) could have laws modifying the CC laws of the state - i.e., ban firearms from city parks etc. But to try to override a state license.... Good luck with that.

What do you guys think of open carry? In MO, it's an open carry state, but you just don't see a lot of people doing that. And if you do, chances are people will freak, and you will get harassed. Is this different in your states?

Case in point, someone was doing it here. He got harassed, but also made a youtube of it. The police chief in our town went to the council to get 'open carry' banned in public. I voiced my opinion to my council reps, it ended up being dropped real quick. Because any town law would not override our state laws which allow for open carry.

So how is it in your town and does anyone personally do it?

It's funny isn't it --- if a cop is open carry people feel protected.... but if a citizen open carries they feel threatened. Go figure.


If you want to carry - get a CC permit - and don't go around having people freaked out. Why create a problem when you can avoid it so easily.

There are a lot of gang problems in NLV and I'm sure that's the reason that they have tried this. From what I've heard the state is after NLV over this. Not sure on the details. Not like anyone would ever win money from NLV in a law suit. No one in that city works and the city is broke.

It's all about the blue costume! :lol:

I have a CC permit. I personally choose not to open carry.

Laurie and I both will open carry from time to time. Depends on where we're going. If it's dinner and a movie we will carry concealed. If I am just out running around town, more often than not, I'll open carry. I'm a shorts and t-shirt kind of guy and it's just easier. No one has given me a hard time about it and in fact a lot of people don't even notice. I am pretty out going and I think that says a lot when people do notice. More females have asked questions than men and honestly that's only been in the last few weeks. The few men who have commented usually make stupid statements. Trying to be cool guys I suppose. I'm sure it's due to the current hype. I've been expecting some negativeness, but there hasn't been any. Yesterday I was in the local gas and gulp paying for my drink and a police officer walked up to the register right next to me. I was wearing my SIG P226 Tactical with a 20 round magazine (Not going to lie...it's pretty obvious). He just smiled. I do my best to be a positive example for responsible gun ownership. I promote gun safety at all times and I am willing to answer anyone's questions, as long as they are respectful. The number one piece of advice I give is training and everyone has been very receptive to that. A positive example can go a long ways as does someone who is willing to share. I have a few friends that where anti guns, that are now gun owners and taking classes. It is very rewarding to see someone who was against guns, educate them self and become a responsible gun owner.
