In Montana OPEN Carry was never against the law, but in some parts of the State of Montana dim witted Peace Officers and govt lawyers, would call it distrubing the peace. So Montana just a few months passed into law HB 228, the part below deals with OPEN carry. Montana will try to again get rid of Para # 3 about carry on college campus.
The total law is 8 pages, mostly deals with conceal and use of force.

Section 2. Openly carrying weapon -- display -- exemption. (1) Any person who is not otherwise
prohibited from doing so by federal or state law may openly carry a weapon and may communicate to another
person the fact that the person has a weapon.
(2) If a person reasonably believes that the person or another person is threatened with bodily harm, the
person may warn or threaten the use of force, including deadly force, against the aggressor, including drawing
or presenting a weapon.
(3) This section does not limit the authority of the board of regents or other postsecondary institutions
to regulate the carrying of weapons, as defined in 45-8-361(5)(b), on their campuses

In some ways, yeah.
But remember, for some people (like me) choosing a place to live involves much more than just their gun laws. It's more than just one issue.

Yeah. If I were in your shoes, I don't think I'd want to give up Galveston for the Montana cold.
