Open carry

My step son is 20 YO. He was at knob creek today and they told him he can’t legally open carry a loaded pistol. That it’s only legal to open carry if unloaded. That he can have a loaded mag in his pocket and can only load it if his life is in danger????

Basically Ky law says nothing about it so the guy is full of shit.

Now the goofy thing about handgun law in KY is that an 18 yr old can open carry a handgun but can not buy a handgun until they're 21. They can however be gifted a handgun. Go figure.
BTW: CCDW permit age limit is 21

Same. Always got weird vibes from some of the salespersons.

18 yr olds can purchase in a private sale too. The 21 is Federal law for FFL dealers.

Yep, forgot that. Makes the law even more goofy

Yes dumb but just another reason many here don't go there.

one of the last times I was at KCR, the range safety made a point of telling me that I was only allowed to collect my own brass and not the brass of the guy next to me who was shooting the same caliber and who had even told me it was okay to take his. the dude next to me could not believe it. they are generally okay at KCR. I think the safety was just tired and his little man syndrome was coming out. the time after that the safety was just as friendly as can be. he chatted more than most women. I am not sure which one I like best.

They aren't generally ok and that is the problem. It's a shame as it was my favorite place as a kid. I used to take my bday money and buy ammo at kcr to shoot with my uncles. Some of my fondest memories and now I know quite a few people who spend their thousands of dollars a year elsewhere. Terrible business sense.

has anyone tried the tubes at Otter Creek recently? I like using the Taylorsville Lake range when firing reloads to work out new stuff I am testing. you can get a lot done there in a short period of time when compared to KCR. I do not like the $10 fee at Otter Creek but if it is used less than Taylorsville then it might be worth it. I am meaning to try Otter Creek soon.

It honestly annoys me when employees of a facility that either supports, supplies or enables gun ownership and usage, spout utter bullshit from their lips. If I'm using your range, don't come at me telling me about the laws if you honestly don't know (such as your case). Don't be in the middle of selling me a gun and lie to my face about the law either ("you can't carry a pistol on the seat of your car in the open") Looking at you Gilberts employee. If you don't know...you don't know. If you do "know"...be damn sure you actually do before you open your mouth. Double check your info. I don't want to be asking you if you ever have a mini 14 in stock, just to have you tell me "that gun is not legal in the US" (looking at you Rural King employee). Shut your pie hole and answer the question yes or no if you have it, instead of shooting off at the mouth about something you're not sure about.

I feel you man. Some people are annoying shits who know it all.
