Hello Everyone.
I am a new member, been lurking for a couple of months now. I did attend the picnic in Oxford Mi a while back and it was full of great info. I have been passing on the website address to co workers and friends. I own a small landscaping company based in Waterford so we are out working at night as well as daytime. I do have a CWP and I will start to do some open carrying. I thank you guys and gals for getting this info out in the mainstream media, I read the article in the Oakland Press about OC and was shocked to say the least that it was legal to carry open in Michigan. I did join the club this am, so I will be lurking and reading and doing some OCing. I do alot of work in the city of Pontiac and that is one area where I will be doing alot of open OCing. I am wondering if anybody here has OC in Pontiac and had ant contact by the PPD ?

Regards Mike

It was nice to meet you, your wife and your son Mike. Glad you made it out. Looking forward to the next one already. Heck, I just might remember your name!

Hi Mike N Mike
Yes there were alot of Mikes there today, was great sitting around chewing the fat with everybody. On my way home I stop by and filler the truck up with gas and grabbed a pop while I was there the whole time my gun on my hip. @ customers and one cashier and if anybody did notice they didn't say anything.

Regards Mike

You may find, as I have, the more and more you OC, that there really are only a few people, relative to all that you may be around that actually have the situational awareness to notice, that is unless you're carrying around a gold plated desert eagle or something of the like.

sincerely,
Mike

Hi Mike
It did seem strange to be carry a gun out in the open, but I will sure do more of it given the amount of work I do in Pontiac.

Regards Mike
