Open Carrier Killed With His Own Gun At Autozone | Open Carry Gone Wrong

About this video

Colion analyzes a reported incident in Las Vegas where a man was fatally shot with his own openly carried firearm after a suspect allegedly grabbed it during an erratic confrontation at an AutoZone. Colion argues that while open carry is legal in Nevada and 46 states, carriers must use retention holsters and maintain situational awareness to prevent weapon grabs. He contends that media coverage unfairly blames lawful open carriers rather than criminals, and advocates for making concealed carry more accessible while emphasizing the importance of training and legal protection for armed citizens.

Key takeaways

• Colion teaches that open carriers should use level 2 or 3 retention holsters and practice weapon retention techniques to prevent gun grabs in confrontations.
• Colion argues that open carry gun grab incidents are statistically rare (only two documented homicides in recent years, according to his sources) and should not be used to justify restricting open carry rights.
• Colion emphasizes that carriers who open carry by choice or necessity bear responsibility for situational awareness and training, but never for crimes committed by those who illegally take their firearms.
• Colion advocates for making concealed carry permits more accessible and affordable as a practical alternative to open carry, and stresses the importance of legal protection coverage for anyone who carries.
