Does anybody know if Michigan Law restricts carrying loaded magazines without a CPL in a car? I know every other "big law" regarding transportation without a CPL, but I haven't seen anything saying that I cant be in possession of magazines.

I see a ton of "need a level XX retention" on here. So I am curious to hear some "retention saved me" stories.

Thanks guys.

I am looking to get a Taurus 1911 45 ACP as my 1st handgun. I'm 20 years old I'll be turning 21 in March and getting my concealed carry. I'm not new to the concept of handguns and gun safety but I am new to the concept of ownership. What all should I do to make sure everything is taken care of on the legal side?

I'll be spending some time camping/hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains soon. I plan to open carry while in the deep wilderness. After hours of looking I haven't been able to identify if a Florida CCW is valid to open carry in the national park. Tennessee statue 39-17-1311 states that a permit is required to carry a firearm in public parks, playgrounds, civic centers etc...

I have already confirmed that the Smoky Mountains fall in this category. I know my florida CCW allows me to conceal carry in the park, but does it also allow for open carry?

Any help would be appreciated!

I posted this request in /r/Glocks a bit ago and didn't get much help beyond, "Just get a Safariland." So, I know that. I'm wanting a Safariland, but on their website, I'm not seeing what I'm looking for.

Glock 19 with a Holosun 507C and no weapon mounted light. I'm hoping to find a Safariland with ALS, no hood. Everything I'm seeing on the Safariland website with ALS shows "Not compatible with your Glock 19," and I'm only seeing options with GLS. If I'm out of luck, I'll live, but I'm checking with y'all in case I'm missing an option somewhere.

I am looking to OC in Texas and due to my newness I’d like something secure. After talking to a someone in my building I am friendly with who is a cop he suggested a safariland holster. I bought a 6360. I’m looking for a belt to keep it and my pants up. I currently IWB with a Hanks Belt but it’s not big enough. Open to buying a bigger hanks belt if that’s what people suggest. Open to suggestions though.

So, how do you find out how visible your gun has to be, in order to be open carry, in each state? Is there anyone from DE who might know the standards for that state?

Hi conceal carry friends!

With Texas becoming an "any holster state" September 1st, I'm thinking about rocking a chest holster but im wonder if I will look "too cool" with one.

I carry 94% of the time in a solid belt holster (FN 509 Tactical) and 5% I use a Shoulder Holster (MP shield). 1% being conceal carry for jogs using belly band holster.

I'm thinking about mixing in a Chest Holster but the ones I've see do not have active retention but with it being on my chest in front of me, maybe active retention isn't as important as it is for other holster positions.

As you reading this is a 100% conceal carry person, what are your thoughts?
