Been carrying now for a bit and less apprehensive and "gun shy" about OCing in the Fountain area. Other than a run to Tinseltown for Ironman 3, not a single issue at the following locations after numerous visits visits. Wanted to post in case anyone else was wondering about experiences in the Fountain area. Not sure if it is because I'm typically in slacks, shirt and tie combo or just that no one raises concern about what can be seen.
Note: the following are locations visited with no problems. Any problems will be annotated accordingly.
Walmart (1 comment about me being first OC he's seen and more should do it, another asked what I was carrying and how he preferred the .45 over my 9mm. Good convo and had 3 others join in.)
Safeway (Mesa Ridge (MR))
Big R (No check-in at counter signs)
Kum and Go (MR)
Advance Auto (MR)
Lowes
Taco Bell (MR)
McDonalds
State Farm (MR)
