OpenCarry.org states it is "technically legal" but I've heard of no challenges to this in the courts. If you got one, let us know.<br /><br />I'm not against open carrying. Or concealed carry. <br /><br />Please keep in mind, Mike, I'm against the whole permit process in the first place. There's something about asking my "betters" for permission to exercise a right.strandediniowahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08069932615393852640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697841611561648399.post-29027418715835986182010-10-29T07:06:47.547-05:002010-10-29T07:06:47.547-05:00Iowa law is not at all unclear on open carry - one...Iowa law is not at all unclear on open carry - one can open carry on foot in unincorporated areas of Iowa without any permit; if one has a permit to carry a handgun issued by iowa, or effective JAN 2011, ANy state, then that person can both conceal and open carry in vehicles generally, and on on foot even in incorporated areas of Iowa.<br /><br />Look forward to more open carry in Iowa including at public meetings.Mike Stollenwerkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00632292396713689206noreply@blogger.com
