Absolutely true, but open carry is frowned upon in most urban settings and will usually get you arrested for something like "disturbing the peace" or even "brandishing".

The only place I know where you can successfully open carry in cities is Arizona.

Hence the only real option is concealed carry and that only where the law permits.
