If you want to give up concealed carry and go to open carry, why don't you just come out and say it. On the other hand, if you have yearnings to be a cop or a soldier, go apply.

In the meanwhile, if there is any problem, I have my permit in my wallet.
Geez. The license or permit in the OP would be concealed until it was needed. So for most states, the "BG" would have to duplicate something that looks like a driver's license - then walk around with it in the open - which AGAIN - was not what the OP stated.

Second part of your comment is totally uncalled for. If you would have read the OP - it is a flip down license/permit holder - that remains concealed. I don't see this in any way desiring to be a cop or anything else. IT IS NOT A BADGE that resembles in ANY FASHION THAT OF A LEO. At best it does it's job and identifies you quickly to any responding LEOs - at worst it looks like an employment badge and had no effect one way or the other. I do like the idea of being able to "quickly" hand over identification - this is really no different than some keeping their driver's license/reg on the visor.

Some off you just jump on the "bashing bandwagon" because it is rolling. And get way off topic from what the OP had intended.
