First time OC

imported post

So I finnaly got to OC. I don't have much of a log yet. Really at I did was go to the gun shop on shellbyville rd in louisville. I have a custom galco holster made for my beretta 9000s. As I was leaving the shop owner warned me against OC. telling me that he was a retired cop and warned against it. That it would make people nervous around this area. I told him I understood it may make some people feel nervous but it was part of the movement. Then I walked out to my car. I then took my wife to graters to get some ice-cream. I walked in holding my 1 year old on one side and mypistolonthe other. :shock:. That's about the expression I got from everyone inside. Except for the clerk. I got my ice cream and went home afterwards. That was the first time I carried in public and let me say that I was pretty nervous when I did it. So was my wife. But it felt good to not have to cover up something that is my right to exercise freely .

Congratulations on your first time. It gets easier the more you do it.

All this will take is some media attention to OC, and time. Check out "Open Carry on Nightline." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmZic2VFGyI

Your right about it getting easier. I just went into kroger with my family and it wasn't nearly as nerve-racking. I probally went in during the buisiest time on sunday.

My Kroger's is going to be fun....NOT...there is always a Highland Heights KY. Police Officer there. I don't know if they work there off duty or are stationed there..but they are there most of the time....I think when I do my first OC there we are probably going to have a conversation!

If you can swing it Tito887, come to the OC picnic here in N. KY next Sunday.
