Hi Everyone! I'm new here but have been following almost every thread on this forum. There's so much helpful information and interesting stories to read. I have learned so much about how to deal with questions and educating people on the correct laws of carrying firearms in Washington state. So first off, thank you everyone for sharing this information!
My first story on here will be short I suppose. I got my CPL about two months ago and have CC'ed ever since.
Yesterday was my first OC experience. I decided to try while running errands on my day off and it was great! I made sure to put on a nice pair of dockers and my pink polo so I was presentable. Later on I grabbed lunch with my g/f at a Greek place in Redmond, I got some looks but no one said anything. Afterwards I went home to do some cleaning and to catch my breath since I was still a bit nervous.
Later on I walked to pick up dinner at Mongolian Grill and passed by a Starbucks and I definitely got some looks around the area but I just went about my business without anyone saying a word.
Overall, no LEO stopped me, no worried people, and just a great sunny day. I also carried a couple pamphlets from this forum just in case I needed them.
I hope I represented all OC'ers well with my conduct and appearence.
Cheers.
