[QUOTE="Michael Brown, post: 1058688, member: 18"] It is not legal for an LEO to carry openly, off duty, without the prescribed uniform. However, there two issues: 1) How did you know he was off-duty? 2) What is the "uniform" for his daily assignment? If his daily uniform is a plainclothes assignment, he is in uniform however displaying a gun and no badge is not a good decision. If he was on-duty, no issue either way other than the previously mentioned problem. When I was assigned to plainclothes, I concealed my firearm just like off-duty as I believe open-carrying out of uniform to be a poor decision. Many do not agree but if open carrying out of uniform is the worst tactical decision I see an officer make, I will be a happy man.;) Michael Brown [/QUOTE]
