I'm a man, but this topic is very interesting to me because a female friend wants to get a carry permit. She went to the range once and liked it, so her plan is to go all in and carry.
I've wondered if "concealed carry" meant on the person or what exactly. I believe she plans to carry in her purse.
My questions:
Can someone share any relevant statute verbiage about how/where on the body or hand carried bag/satchel/case is legal to carry?
Does anyone agree w/me that even if legal, carrying in a purse is a bad idea? My thinking is when an assailant is coming head on and there's time to grab from a purse, that's one thing, but things get lost in a purse which eats time and SO MANY handbags are stolen from behind, so that's just asking to forfeit the gun to the perp.
