i have been OCing every where i go for the past few weeks now. i had my first person question me about my firearm yesterday. me and a friend of mine were walking out of a local fish house with some lunch and an elderly woman approached me. this is how the conversation went.
ew: is that a water gun?
me: (slightly amused) no ma'am. it is real.
ew: are you undercover?
me:no ma'am. im a civilian.
ew: (eyes wide) why do you have that then?
me: so that i can protect myself and those around me should the need arise.
ew: (thinks for a few seconds) that makes a lot of sense. there are some mean people in this world.
me: yes ma'am there are. and i dont intend to allow them to hurt me or those that i care about.
ew: you are a smart young man.
me: thank you ma'am. have a nice afternoon
i hope all the encounters i have will be as pleasant as this one but somehow i doubt that very much. over all though i think i handled it very well.
