I have one for the dumb question department... are gunracks in pickups, on ATVs, or holsters on horses considered open carry... or is open carry strictly handgun territory?

It’s open carry on your person. Gun racks don’t count. :-).

Anymore I don’t think I’d show a rifle in a rack in the rear window of a pickup. It’s just advertising for thieves.

In fact here in WA I believe the law currently says that any weapon left in a vehicle must be out of sight. I would suppose that includes rifles in racks.

And to think when I was in high school in the 70s during hunting season many of the pickups in the student parking lot had rifles in their racks because they were hunting before and after school.

Here in this part of Texas, I can walk down the street with a shotgun or a rifle, and won't get a raised eyebrow, unless a cop wants to borrow my pig gun.

Strap on a pistol, and you'd think I'd set fire to the old folks home...
