Who We Are
Michigan Open Carry, Inc. came to life when a few guys from the Michigan sub-forum of opencarry.org got together and formed the organization to promote the lawful open carry of holstered handguns.
While the effort of promoting the lawful open carry of holstered handguns lives on today, MOC’s still all volunteer leadership is engaged in legislative, litigatory, and educational activities to promote and protect firearms rights in general for Michiganders.
