Is It Legal To Open Carry At Your Residence?

[Mr.357Sig]

Is it legal to open carry your CCW weapon in your residence? Do you have to have a CCL to open carry in your home? And can you open carry outside on your property?

I'm thinking inside is OK and outside is OK if your outside most city limits.

I apologize if this is a repost.

On your own property you do not need a permit. I carry open in my front yard all the time when I am working in the yard during warm weather and don't feel like throwing a cover garment on.

You can carry however you want inside your home, but you need a "legitimate" reason to open carry outdoors on your own property.

I must have missed that portion of the review, seems to me that case was about being under the jurisdiction of the SDA in your own home and if the def could be fined for not informing the officers of his weapons. They refered to previous rulings that you cant carry a weapon outside your dwelling on your person w/o a concealed carry license. Even with a CCL you still cant open carry outside your dwelling/business not necessarily your property

I target shoot outside on my property, just outside the city limits. I've even had friends that were police officers talk with me about it and they never told me different. This however doesn't mean that I am following the letter of the law. I'm not sure anyone could catch you during hunting seasons. Of course I'm not in a neighborhood, I'm sure safety wins out in that situation.

target shooting is a legitimate purpose...

"I'm an American and I want to." should be a legitimate reason.


Trying to keep my head from exploding.

Is self defense a legitimate purpose?
