Abstract

The article focuses on the new law which permitted anyone licensed to bear a concealed firearm can opt to carry a weapon in the open in Oklahoma in 2012. It mentions that the scene at the Beverly's Pancake House most probably become commonplace as Oklahomans take advantage of the law by showing their handguns while they walk into banks and shop for groceries. Advocates for gun rights stated the ability to open carry would eliminate the risks of a wardrobe mishap and deter crime.
