[martyk]

I have applied for a concealed carry and recently noticed that in order to open carry you need a permit also are they different or one in the same?

What state do you live in?

Since the thread title includes Indiana, it's a good guess that's what state the OP refers to.

A little quick Googling finds that Indiana issues a License to Carry Handgun - it is required for OC or CC, your option.

Hah...when I opened the thread, all I could see of the title was "open carry vs concealed."

My bad.

They are one and the same.

Depending on where you live in Indiana, the local LEOs will prefer you to carry concealed, but the law as cited by Firefighterchen is silent. It is just a 'License to Carry Handgun.' Whether you carry Open or Concealed is your decision.
