45-8-315  MT code Defines a concealed weapon means"whollly or partially coverd by the clothing or wearing apparel of the person carrying or bearing the weapon

Gun Laws of MT buy Gary Marbut

 

However I think that a OWB holster Is quite obvious that you have a firearm unless covered by a shirt or something,

My peticular Open carry method is a IWB holster , all you see is the grip of the 1911, making it wholly or partialy covered.

Can y'all help me out with acronyms? I'm new to the fourm and topic, though I have a CWP (I know that one). What is OWB? I'm sure it's simple, but not coming to me.

Haven't OCd yet here in MT, but plan to.

I just wanted to throw this out there. I just returned from a two day trip through Montana and i half to say it went great! This was my first OC in public and short of a couple of looks no one bothered me or my group. I was the only one OCing but I was actually confortable with doing it. I think the hardest stare I got was from a 12 yo boy who couldn't believe I was carrying an actual firearm. Went through Idaho as well and Oc'd all through Idaho Cda included. All in all it was a great trip. Gold Star state for sure.

I'm also a Wa resident and may be taking a trip to Idaho and Mt.  I have a cpl and was wondering if we are legal to carry open and concealed in both of these states.  I have not started researching it yet.  Just came across your post and thought maybe you knew the answers!  Thanks.

Your CPL is accepted  in both states Idaho and Montana, as well as others. A site I find helpful is carryconcealed.net good luck and have a great trip

My first OC experience was to Lowes. I was nervious and very self concious and felt like EVERYBODY was staring at my .45. Now I forget I even have it on:D I would like to see some breakfast or outing OC get togethers around here.
