Hi!
I live in Louisville proper, within the PRB. I'm fortunate to work at a very 2nd Amendment rights' friendly company. I tend to get in early--very early--and, while Louisville is very safe, because of where I'm from originally, I know that places that are intrinsically safe are still worthy targets for various miscreants. Now, given that we can all agree that we can't assume safety anywhere, and also that I'm furnishing the fact that my company is OK with this, if, and when--as I often do--get in much earlier than anyone else, what constitutes open carry in Louisville or PRB in general? I ask only because the proprietor of a local gun-selling establishment remarked something along the lines of "so long as the grip shows...". So, if I walk out of my home within my Sanders-fearing haunts at o-dark-thirty-am, what do I need to be showing to be lawfully OC'ing in Louisville?
As I hope not to be flamed here, I did spend 2.5 years in the Springs where, well, if you've lived there, you know. And before that, in and about the DC suburbs. Either way, both were very different environments. Help a brother out!
Don't fear the reaper!

PS: The plan is to pack my SA Operator. If that's not enough rounds, I've done enough fooling around with my Jeep to find places to stick my Winchester 7+1 pistol grip only 12 gauge. I may buy a Glock, or something else that's a double stack... but that's another discussion. I'd rather put some lead in my assailant before he puts in me--no matter what the outcome--, if that's what it has to come down to.
