so as not to take the satehouse gathering thread off topic... for us bike riders, at what point does open carry turn into concealed carry.
now i have no nh p&r (dont head up north nearly enough, hell barely get out of w.mass)
i know once i hit the nh border or even just before, i should take out my mag and empty the chamber and continue on. i know once off the bike i can load up and open carry.
now if i'm getting ready to leave or just parked the bike, its off and key out of the ignition, before getting off the bike can i load up and in the reverse, bike off key not in yet,
unload, then finish getting ready to leave.
or should i just do it all off the bike to avoid a gray area?
here is another bike related question - while my bike is parked, it is not uncommon for me to put the left rear peg down and sit side-saddle with foot on the peg. good example would be
stopping in keene by what ever university that is, stopping and getting a soft serve cone or shake or whatever they sell (though aint been up there in a few years now) me and my friends would
be gathered around where we parked a few sitting side- saddle on our bikes. all off , keys out.... if we were carrying would open or ccw rules be applied?
