I was out running errands with the wife today stopped a Millers market a local specialty food store run by a local Mennonite couple we know.

As we were paying I notice a couple with a baby in a carrier the man kept looking at my Glock and finely said it is nice to see some one open carrying than he said I am from a state that doesn't allow it but we are working on it.

I then asked what state he was from he said Maryland I than handed him a business card saying if he and his wife even need any firearms instructing I would be available.

He said they get here fairly often because he has family in the area and would consider it next time they are here.

I also went to several other businesses with out any one batting a eye.

All in all a very positive contact.

Firearms maybe you can answer this: Why do we not have a UNIFORM US laws on RKBA since 2A is enshrined in the federal constitution? Some states forbid to bear some do and a whole lot in between.
