I was feeling frisky an figured I read enough law over and over, soI finally OC today
Most of the day was spent in my friend’s driveway helping fix his truck, he made a comment "exercising your right?", "you bet"I said. His neighbors that came and went did double takes. After about an hour of being there his little girl asked "is that your gun"
Me "yes it is"
Little girl "why do you have it with you"
Me “just incase of bad guys"
Little girl "oh ok"
I kind of thought it was amusing. My little 3yo was going on and on about it for a hour at home when I put it on this morning, I don’t mind her asking questions, I would rather her be educated than ignorant. My friend also mentioned it was kind of wild that I just had my gun out in the open.
After that I went to Impact Guns in Ogden to get the Utah laws 3rd ed. book, not out of the ordinary to see people carrying guns there I suppose.A friend of mine that works there commented on how heavy my Sig 220 ST is and said his XD 45 is lighter, slightly shorter, and holds 13rnds. I think I'll get that new XDm if I were to get one.
Then my little girl and I went to the new Lowes atWashington and North st here in Ogden. While I was getting out of the car I noticed people walking down the parking lot and stop in their tracks for a brief second, whispered something and then kept going, I really don’t know if it was because of me or what I didn’t pay too much attention to it. While in the store we were walking down the large isle way in the center of the store and a woman walking towards us made a quick left after staring at me, again don’t really know if it was me or what. Through out the rest or the time spent at the store and wandering around getting the items I wanted I made my way to the register all the while my little girl was not paying attention to me and just kept walking down the front of the store, so I had to call her and she did not respond, I raised my voice calling her again finally getting her attention I also got the attention or about a dozen other customers that I think by this point have all noticed my side arm. They all got quiet and stared at me, kind of strange for a second but later I thought it waskind of funny. The girl at the register was quite nice and smiley she didn’t seem to be bothered at all by it.
So all in all it was uneventful, I think I was just kind of nervous of what other people may do or say and the possibility of having a nice chat with LEO, I just hope I never have a confrontation with LEO like TJ has had, lol.
Well Sunday I think I'll go to wal-mart with it or where ever I got to find cayenne pepper
