The concealed weapon permit makes it legal to carry a fire arm concealed - in a pouch, under you coat, in your purse, etc., but it does not necessarly make it legal to strap the sucker on you hip and go out in public. Truman Of course, which is why I added the parenthetical "where legal." This particular incident is in rural Idaho, where I suspect it is quite legal. Joe Long wrote: I was one of the first to suggest "carrying a weapon." I chose my words carefully, I said "weapon" not "gun." For someone who is properly trained in its use, and who has properly trained their horse, a gun worn openly (where legal) is IMO the best choice. It lets the folks know you have it without you making any agressive moves, and it's there if you need it to defend yourself if you are attacked. (BTW, Kahlil was trained to the sound of firearms being fired from the saddle.) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
