Idaho pistol rules

[adamR]

Can someone provide me with the rules in Idaho as far as carrying a pistol while hiking and /or open carrying a pistol while hiking. I'm going along with another Hunter this weekend who will be bowhunting and I will not be hunting but I'm curious if I'm allowed to carry my glock even though I don't have any kind of permit for Idaho.  Also, whats the rules for concealed carry while not recreating.

As stated above Idaho is a right to carry state. No permit needed for open or concealed carry. One of a few states that have gone that route.

I think you have to be a resident of Idaho for above to apply.


Idaho permits the open carrying of firearms. Effective July 1, 2016, state law allows any Idaho resident to carry a concealed handgun without a license to carry, provided the person is over 21 years old and not disqualified from being issued a license to carry concealed weapons under state law.

After reading it further looks like it allows non residents to carry also.
I think you are good to go.

Thanks guys.  It looks like as a nonresident over 21 I'm allowed to open carry without any license and having my concealed permit from Washington allows me to conceal as well.
