New to OC. Colorado Springs.
I've been intending to get my CCW whenever I can justify the cost of the course, but I came across this site recently, and think it's awesome!
CCW is great for personal defense, but OC will do so much more! Actively deterring crime from your person and raising public awareness for starters...
Is there anything I should know before OC'ing in Colorado Springs? I hear the sheriff encourages it? Is it illegal to carry anywhere? (I moved here from Vegas, and I remember the libraries had "no gun" stickers ... illegal there being a government building?) Is there any sort of 'round-in-the-chamber' thing? Or anything concerning public transportation (if I ever need it for some reason)? Obviously, businesses have the right to have their own policies and tell you you can't bring a gun in (if they choose to refuse your business), but are any businesses "special" where it's actually illegal to carry? Any legalities concerning ignoring business's 'no guns' signs, or is it just a policy/asked-to-leave-or-trespassing thing?
Has anyone run into much harrassment issues with the cops, or are they pretty cool here? Colo Springs is still pretty conservative.
