Hey all,
I live in the most bike-friendly city in the country. I live 1.25 miles from work and have an eight minute bike commute. I do essentially my whole life, social and business on a bicycle. My truck was totalled at the end of June (rear-ended on my way to pick up a gun I bought in the trading post here), and I have chosen to not buy a replacement. I do not have a concealed weapons permit, and don't have any foreseeable plans to get one (although there's nothing stopping me).
My question is this:
Without a permit, can I legally carry a handgun in a backpack? If it's unloaded/locked/in a case/etc., does that matter? Could I go to a store, buy a pistol, put it in a backpack and ride home? Would they count this as being "on my person?"
The obvious answer is to go get a CWP and then it's a moot point. But I'm just curious.
Thanks,
Josh
