Thanks for all the info. I've actually learned a ton.

It's looking like I am completely misinformed and rather ignorant of the whole gun carry culture. I didn't realize that I could open carry in many states without a permit and that most states don't care about gun registration. For some reason I thought that all states required gun registration.

I suppose I should ask a silly question. How concealed can a gun be and still be considered open carry? I have a hip holster that tends to get slightly covered by my coat. I never really considered it before, but then I've never considered the whole open carry option.
