AK or AR pistol Open Carry?

[Jam Master Jay]

I've had trouble finding out if openly carrying a slung AK or AR pistol (or comparable rifle caliber pistol) will be legal in November. I know in some open carry states it is. I don't own one but I can see the advantage to having a rifle caliber pistol. What's the word?

I'm pretty sure the law specifically says holster or scabbard. I imagine you could carry one as long as you can get a holster made for the firearm. Just my $.02.

This is true and they do have the right to stop you every time they see you and have you contrained until they check the gun to make sure it is not full auto.

Please please please do tell these advantages in the real world.

Why would you want to?

Just because?

Also less than 16 inches...

3. "Pistol" means any derringer, revolver or semiautomatic firearm which:

a. has an overall length of less than sixteen (16) inches,

Even if it was legal I wouldnt. That would look very bad to the sheeple and police.

And, it would be another kick in the shins for those that do want to open carry. People who are uneducated about firearms will point and shout...."RUN, he's carrying a machinegun" and then the sounds of sirens will be heard.

The only ones I've heard about carrying this type of "pistol" are attention seekers who want to make a name for themselves on Youtube.
