I was confronted with a different situation last week and I didn't know what to do. I was going shopping with my wife at Wegman's on Monument Drive in Fairfax and I was carrying my 1911 under my shirt. I got to the cheese section and there I saw an employee dispensing samples of wine to potential customers.
I immediately wondered if I should revert to open carry since I wasn't sure of the law in this case. The store was very crowded and busy, and I felt that it would have been unwise to make a motion to uncover my firearm. I didn't want to alarm anyone becausein a crowded store it's fairly difficult to change modes of carry while keeping alow profile.
Can anyone help me out as far as the law here in Virginia on this? I can't find a clear answer myself.
