Your not the only one. I do it on a normally bases around home, but be aware Warren police are real dicks about us doing it and have given me a hard time about it in the past.

I have been stopped a few times and each time they say some concerned citizen called them, the same old nonsense. I carry my phone that does a voice recording, so if it went south I have proof of what happened. Most times they are ticked off that I am open carrying and give me their macho speech. They run my serial number on my XDm and after a little more typical bulling they advise me to use my CCW permit and leave. I do not use my leg holster all the time when OCing. Most time I put it on my belt. I would have no problem doing a OC walk, it would be nice if we could get a small group together. There is power in numbers becase I am sure we each know what laws protect us and we will not be bullied as easily. I live just off of North Road. I carry the following paperwork, I simple hand it to them and usually keeps them from causing too much problems and has helped me quite a bit.
