[QUOTE="David2012, post: 1962277, member: 24428"] There is a forum heading dedicated to [B]'Self Defense [U]and Concealed Carry[/U]'[/B]... maybe the Administrator / Mods need to start a dedicated heading for [B]'Self Defense [U]and Open Carry[/U]' [/B]in order to isolate all the Open Carry stories we will be having starting in a week. I'm sure we will be having Open Carry topics about LEO license checks, harassment by certain officers [so we can estabish a pattern with certain officers], which towns are the most likely to check ID, which are cool about it.... and so on. -------- Side comment- I noticed a Norman Transcript on-line article that [appears] to contain some bad info. The OK2A Association might want to contact them and straighten the issue out... otherwise someone open carrying might get themselves in a lot of trouble depending on this info by refusing to produce a license on the demand of a LEO Their news article states-- [B][I]Law enforcement officials say they can ask a person openly carrying a firearm to see their license but that person does not have to comply. Only if there is another reason to confront the person does the gun owner have to comply and show their license.[/I][/B] [B][/B]My understanding of the SDA law is that anyone open carrying must produce a weapons license & state issued ID upon demand... period. They can only be 'disarmed and / or 'restrained' if they fail to produce a license on demand of a LEO... or if there is suspecion of a crime having been commited.
