If we can carry concealed in a bag, why not your usual open carry...but covered up. Covered up with anything: a holster with a flap, hang an old shirt on it, a paper bag that says "Not A Gun", a Walmart bag.
Not ideal but better than no gun.
Where's the line between concealed and open carry?
I hope the OP is in a constitutional carry state, as his question leads me to believe that they do not have a concealed carry permit, and while not violating Wal-Warts rules, would be breaking the law.
If its carried in a bag, then isn't it considered 'in transport'?
Anytime you cover your open carry, you are now conceal carrying.
OP, you should probably freshen up on your dictionary skills and re-read the definitions of conceal and open. At the same time, I highly recommend taking a CCW class on the matter.
