Does anyone on here do it? how do you do it? I only ask because of people i have run into in the past while not riding. i normally carry everywhere i go except when im on the sled. i figure it would be impossible to get it out from under a jacket and bibs. obviously it would be holstered but the thought has crossed my mind to have it in my bag that i ride with but still the bouncing around and trying to get to a back pack that is tight to my body would be just about impossible in a bad situation.
i searched the forum for a while with no luck.

I have a conceal carry permit and have never carried on a Sled. We are usually in a bigger group and I never seem to worry. I have seen a wolf on the trail in northern Wisconsin and we stopped to watch him. I never once felt threatened . There is a big argument on HCS going on right now, you could look over there . They are all about arguing LOL !

I have had more problems at Boat landings where people seem to think that just because boat is tied up to a pier and their up at there truck drinking Beer that other people have to wait til there done and get there boat out. Boat landings are for putting IN and taking OUT not picnicking.

That sucks ! I have mine in my car all the time and yes we kid about someone going postal at work. I just hope I can make it to my car. With the stress everyday life dumps on us the work place can be a prime target. My job is to diffuse all the problems at work so I know how bad it can get.

Chest holster.........remove the glove, unzip and it's ready.
Yup, Shagman and I know this to well. The guy from out of state was trying to tell Shagman that he should go back to his hometown and we both yelled at him saying we were only 2 miles from his home! Idiots....
My work encourages carry conceal and open carry....mine is right next to me at work

I actually had no idea that was a rule there. Bunch of bs if you ask me. Im sure no one will answere that question for obvious reasons. Obviously everyone should play by the rules. Fortunately we dont stop at "BARS" so that wont be a problem for me. Also if i remember right if you have a cpl and open carry it is legal. But im not 100% sure

I carry every ride. Use a shoulder holster. Spare mag one side and pistol on the other.
Easy access by unzipping jacket.
Don't try the tuck in the pants deal. It will fall out.

By the way it's. It not always the idiots I prep against. If we have a break down it is great protection against predators.

I like this idea seems to be most common when riding. I also put a post up on a carry forum and other riders chimed in on the same.
The only question i have is whith your jacket off. Say you go in to a resteraunt for lunch or something have you had any issue. My experience with open carry is limited so it would be new to me. I got use to concealed quickly since i normally iwb.
I was thinking a baggy shirt over the shoulder holster would atill be easy once my jacket is unzipped.
