Open Carry in Vehicle in Omaha, NE

OK by me. So Far, So Good.
I'm thinkin' carry style is a highly individual choice, and we are all Highly Individual Folks.
The thing about Open Carry is that--although it is entirely legal--it can still get the Open Carrier a face full of gravel until it's all resolved.
Of course, any carry has certain risks. There was a case of an ex-military officer (West Pointer) who carried concealed in a mall in Texas. Gun was briefly exposed. Store employee freaked. Declared Mall Emergency. Cops came. Shot CHP guy. Dead.
It goes On and On.

open carry in your vehicle. i do it every day.
you legally need to have the "omaha open carry permit" to have your gun in open sight in your vehicle. outside omaha city limits you can legally have your gun in the open in your car without a permit.
as for the email from the old prosecutor, his intentions with said email was this: if you have a concealed carry permit and you are concealing a handgun, it accidentally becomes visible and someone reports it, the prosecutor would not prosecute you for the accidental flash. It did NOT mean you could open carry freely in omaha city limits if you have a ccw permit.

It does now, however.
Omaha Municiple Code, Chapter 20, Article 7, Section 20-206, item 10.

Item ten just says that you can carry a concealable weapon if you have the Nebraska conceal carry permit.
Doesn't say anything about having a ccw gives the green light to open carry in omaha city limits.

Now re reading that again. All section b 1-10 is talking about is transportation in a vehicle. Not on your person.
