NC and FL CCW laws state that the weapon must be concealed and on the person.
A holster would not be legal in either state. However, a pistol in my windshield bag is legal. I only know about NC and FL because I have both CCW licenses. MT

I wouldn't want mine anywhere but on me. Not sure what situation you could be in where on the bike is better than on your person. You are not thinking you might have to shoot at someone from your moving bike are you?

I carry mine iwb front, left side since I am left handed. I guess my opinion is that I am going to need it when I am off the bike if I am going to need it. I am considering a shoulder holster but those look like a PITA to wear.

In the Peoples Republic of NY you can not open carry.
They are actually confiscating rifles in NY City now if they resemble their definition of and "assault weapon". Any semi-automatic rifle having a removable magazine with one or more of the following features; thumb hole stock telescoping stock second hand grip pistol grip flash suppressor muzzle brake compensator bayonet mount Grenade launcher We all know these features are what make a rifle deadly threaded barrel

I decided not to renew my permit this year. First time since I turned 21 (I'm 37 this year). I normally renew for 3 years, but 5 years ago they increased to it 5 years for around $35. This year when I looked into it I found that our benevolent dictators have increased the fee from $35 ro $95 for the same permit, same time frame. I'm assuming that's the state's fault, but I'd love to blame it on POTUS. So I decided "screw that" and I no longer have my carry permit.

I carry my Ruger LC9 in my jacket pocket, or if warm weather I stow it in my tourpak. I can open carry here, so I picked up a tactical thigh holster for my Springfield XD40 but have yet to wear it while riding. That should make a statement, don't you think?

We pay $20 a year for CCW permit in Alabama. I carry a 5 shot .22 Magnum revolver in my back pocket everywhere I go. It fits right behind my wallet. I keep my Taurus PT111 9mm or the PT145 .45 in the windsheild bag if I am going on a longer ride. The small 22 allows me time to escape any situation and get back to the bike for more firepower. Realistically, if they hear a bang, they are going to exit the confrontaion.
To the orignal question, there was a guy on here that showed a pic of his floorboard converted to a pistol holder. Cant remember the thread...

I really cant complain about the cost. $20 is nothing. In Texas we were required to pay around $300 and go to an all day class. I am sure other Texas folks can elaborate. I refuse to refer to myself as a Texan, lol! I wasnt born there.
When I moved here I went to the Sherrif's office to ask about transferring my permit. He asked me if I had any felonies. I told him no, and he asked to see my license and $20. I was out in 15 minutes with my permit. I renew by mail every year now.

Ohio has open carry to all. (mostly all) That does create a stirr around some "sheeple", but ya see it from alotta cowboys. Been carrying for 30+ yrs., wife included. We play ALOT. Years ago, we learned to ALWAYS mount it somewhere on your person. Never a purse,fanny pack, or those new yuppy lookin' fone case holders.All that crap is the first to be stripped from ya. If a screwball at a light or in stopped traffic decides he or she is gonna strong arm ya from your bike, in kicks that "castle doctrine". Or- let them take your bike...NOT!
There is much "gray area" these days when it comes to this subject. WWW.THEFIREINGLINE.COM is a great forum like this & gives state to state tips & such. "an armed society is a polite society"
