Hi guys just happened to come across this site on open carry.I have been a CPL holder since 89 and I kinda thought open carry was frowned upon hence why they have CPL's.But I kinda heard it was a open carry state although I was always encourged to carry conceal.I had one open carry inc ident in a Dennys Restuarant in Everett back in 91. I happened to have a .357 mag on a shoulder holster under my coat but I did not want to have to wear this jacket and try to eat my dinner.So I took my jacket off and sat there for about 15 mins eating until a manager told me I was making people uncomfortable and I had to leave the premises,beingsI was fairly new to carrying I complied with his request.This was all goin on with 3 Everett LEOS sitting like 2 tables away from me and not one time did they ever approach me about it.Had I known about my rights then I could have talked to the mananger about open carry laws and its legality.I'm so glad I ran into this site and I plan on Ocing more often now that summer is approaching .I will be reading more and more and educating myself.Thank You.
