BELT CLIP FOR INSIDE WAIST OR POCKET CARRY FOR KEL TEC/RUGER LCP...IS IT LEGAL?
« on: February 09, 2009, 11:53:11 AM »
JUST SAW ONE OF THESE POCKET TYPE CLIPS MOUNTED ON THE REAR FRAME OF THE KEL TEC/RUGER LCP PISTOLS.  LOOKS JUST LIKE A CLIP FOR A POCKET KNIFE.  AWESOME IDEA FOR CARRYING THESE SMALL HANDGUNS.  BUT IS IT LEGAL TO CARRY THIS WAY?  I'M FROM OHIO, AND IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME CORRECTLY; MY CCW INSTRUCTOR SAID A HANDGUN HAD TO BE CARRIED IN A HOLSTER?  I'M CONFUSED AS TO WHAT THE LEGAL DEFINITION FOR A HOLSTER MIGHT BE?  ANY CCW INSTRUCTORS HELP ME WITH THIS ONE?  THANKS.

 I   checked your State laws, you can do this online at

My understanding would no you can not, but a local attorney would be better versed in this.

I am from Ohio and YES you are required by LAW to carry in a holster when on your person.

Call a lawyer and ask him. You'll pay for but it's worth if it you absolutely must carry a clip on your gun.

Me personally, I consider the guns you're asking about to be specifically pocket guns and I wouldn't put them in a holster or on my belt with a clip. I'd put them in a pocket holster or safepacker (which can be in plain sight and still counts as concealment).

Here is the quote from the law,

A person who has been issued a concealed handgun
license or a temporary emergency license to carry a
concealed handgun may transport a loaded handgun in
a motor vehicle if the loaded handgun is:
• In a holster secured on the person

This quote only pertains to "in a vehicle but I would assume that it would apply to all carry.

Hey Coroner, lively sign on you got there.

There are plenty of options for "mousegun holsters"

http://mouseguns.com/holsters.htm

Long list of types and styles for IWB or pocket.

I have a Kel-Tec P3AT with the belt "clip" ::), its great in light attire, but many other options are available.
