I do know how it works in Minneapolis/MN. I live here and operated a FFL that sold custom AR-15s.

I do appreciate the additional context for the rest of the country though. It is vastly different state to state.

Ah ok!

So... is open carry ... functionally legal in MN/Minneapolis? Or... is it basically not? Or is it contentious and complicated?

[–] Hathaway@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Complicated. Largely can’t do it without a permit.

Huh! Ok, fair enough.
