I called the home office Tuesday and the guy told me, "Well, it is private property", and then gave me a survey on his knowledge of the subject. He said he would pass it on and I should get a call, but I haven't so I got on line and did it over the internet. I will let you know how it turns our.

My letter to Walmart:

I called your offices with a complaint and they deemed it unnecessary to call me back. They thought it was much better to give me a survey on the person I talked to. Give me a break.

I am what is known in my state as an open carrier. I carry a sidearm on my hip. This is totally legal in Colorado and I have carried and shopped at your store (1273) for many years. I have open carried for the last two years, including in your store.

However, I went to your store at 10:30 pm Monday (5-14-12) and your night manager told me I would have to take my sidearm outside and then I could shop. I told him Walmart goes by local laws and he said no, they did not allow firearms. I sk him why signs were not posted and he said he didn't have to post signs...our laws require them. The only correct information he gave me was your stores were private property. He said I could only carry in my state with a permit in Colorado. He was dead wrong. Then his lack of knowledge was glaringly apparent as he continued to inform me that I could not open carry without papers. I told him he better learn the laws and left.

I do not have to shop at your company stores. There are many in my area who really want my money in this economic downturn. Money is tight and I shop where I am wanted as a customer and treated that way. My experience Monday night told me you have plenty of income and mine was not wanted. If this is corporates policies, I will go elsewhere to do my shopping. ]]> Colorado jhco50 http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?102944-Fountain-Walmat-Night-Manager-experience http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?102942-Got-my-Georgia-Firearms-Permit-today&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 21:07:16 GMT I got my Georgia Firearms permit in the mail today.

Have you heard?

http://www.reuters.com/article/2009/...59E0Q920091015

The Obama administration intends to force gun control and a complete ban on all weapons for US citizens through the signing of international treaties with foreign nations. By signing international treaties on gun control, the Obama administration can use the US State Department to bypass the normal legislative process in Congress. Once the US Government signs these international treaties, all US citizens will be subject to those gun laws created by foreign governments. These are laws that have been developed and promoted by organizations such as the United Nations and individuals such as George Soros and Michael Bloomberg. The laws are designed and intended to lead to the complete ban and confiscation of all firearms. The Obama administration is attempting to use tactics and methods of gun control that will inflict major damage to our 2nd Amendment before US citizens even understand what has happened.

Granted this is old, from 2009, I thought it may be fitting to resurrect it now that I have found a group that is as dedicated to preserving our Rights as I am. ]]> Nevada http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?102941-First-Major-Step-in-a-Plan-to-Ban-All-Firearms-in-the-US http://forum.opencarry.org/forums/showthread.php?102940-What-s-the-latest-news-on-HB-5225&goto=newpost Wed, 16 May 2012 20:15:42 GMT If I remember correctly, this is up tomorrow.

Any experiences at all would be helpful.

My fiancé and I are planning a road trip from our place in the SF bay area to visit her family in Denver, Colorado. I'd like to OC (and/or CC) my P99 and was looking into the different laws for the states we'll be passing through.

Our intended route takes us through Nevada, Utah and part of Wyoming before we get into Colorado. We're planning on spending a night in Salt Lake City each way, but I don't think that changes anything as far as OC/CC is concerned.

Here's what I've gathered:

Notes:
The standard prohibited areas of courthouses, public office, schools, etc. apply in all 4 states.
I don't hold any concealed carry permits in any of the states. No time go get one, either.

Wyoming:
CC: Residents can CC without a permit (as long as they qualify for a permit). Non-residents need a permit from a state that WY honors.
OC: Allowed. Can be loaded (loaded magazine with round in the chamber).

Am I generally correct in what I've been able to figure out?
