Of course, we're in. :)

I'm not normally game for OCing in big crowds, as it makes retention an issue. Never the less, the huge 4th of July gatherings offer a really good opportunity to get the word out. The risk may well be worth it.

Is anyone interested in setting up and manning some booths at various venues throughout Vegas (or the rest of the state) where there are large Independence Day celebrations to get the word out about gun rights and OC.

We still have time to get some pamphlets printed up, etc.

As long as we keep it to public areas, LEO won't have any justification for saying no, and no private property owners to get you for trespassing.

I always OC, so I'll be OC'ing those three days as well.

On the 4th of July I plan to watch fireworks in Virginia City, and yes I will be carrying.

I wish I could be there in Virginia City, but I have to work. The parking lotnext tothe Bucket of Blood saloon offers the best viewing!

I OC in Reno all the time, so you aren't alone.

I'll be at Virginia City with my family for the 4th of July but some other day maybe we can meet.

I'm pretty sure you won't be hassled in Virginia City. I've visited family there, and been to the Bucket of Blood a number of times. Plenty of OC in that Saloon!!!

If there is a gathering of OCers in Vegas, I would love to participate. OCing is something I have always wanted to get into but due to my inherent shyness, I lack confidence in dealing with the potential social situations that doing so might cause. This is not helped by the fact that I moved here about 2 years ago from CA and still to this day have yet to encounter an OCing civilian. Perhaps the opportunity to OC in a group of fellow friendly OCers might give me the boost of confidence I need to do it on my own. I've heard they have similar events in VA and I think it would be cool to have something like that here.

same here. if there was an organized gathering somewhere in town, it would be the ideal ice breaker/confidence builder for me.

I am game for it, if someone has a place and time.

I'm going to be in Virginia City all day today with the wife. Maybe I'll see some of you guys there. Are most of the establishments open carry friendly? I know we're going to want to sightsee and eat during the day. I'm debating whether or not to OC all day or just for the concert and fireworks.
