New member "Who Me" made the post below in another thread. I've quoted it here for more exposure and to move discussion from the other thread.
Open carried yesterday to Gilbert's Corner (15 and 50 intersection) to have some BBQ. First time eating there and had the pulled pork sandwich which was excellent. Not much to report beside seeing a young lady open carrying a revolver in a leather holster
Then went to Carousel Ice Cream in Warrenton for dessert. After I got in my vehicle to get ready to leave a Fauquier County Sheriff approached and asked me to put my hands on the wheel. She asked for id and I told her where it was and her partner got it and ran my driver license. She was nice and said she believes in carrying and understood that open carrying is my right but they had received a call from someone at the ice cream place that reported a "man with a gun". I asked if she was going to talk to the person that made the call and let them know that I was doing nothing illegal and she said she would. She shook my had and said have a nice day.
That was my first experience concerning carrying with any police since I have been open carrying for the last 2 years. I guess it was bound to happen sooner or later
