I was filling up my truck, and ran inside to use the restroom. The employee was mopping at the time, so my openly carried Browning hi power was out of his line of sight due to shelves.
When i was walking out, I noticed him staring. I was almost to the door when he goes "HEY!"
Now, he was one of those scary biker type looking older gentlemen, but i could tell from how he spoke to me earlier that he was a nice guy, even though he came across differently at first. I was in no particular hurry, so i stepped over closer to the counter and ask him how he was doing.
He pointed and asked "What are you doing carrying that thing out in the open?"
Keep in mind, im 18, and look pretty young, so CC is not an option for me. I respond that its 100% legal in Nevada to OC from the age of 18, and that there is no law against it. He tilted his head in a confused look and asked since when. I told him its always been like that, and that i was not breaking any laws. He tilted his head to the side with the confused look again, and said that he had heard rumors, but never believed that they were true. I once again said it was infact true, and said goodbye and left.
Overall, i think it went great, and may get one more person thinking about OC. He didnt ask me to leave, or seem scared at all. I know that if i was working a 7-11 at 2 am and saw somebody carrying in a way i thought was illegal, i wouldnt stop them from leaving by confronting them.
Just thought i would share!
When i was at the Inn n Out in Kingman two hours before this, a young couple walked in, and right as they got to the front, the guy noticed, and was staring. Didnt even hear the employee asking what he would like. They sat far away where they couldnt see me, and gave me funny looks when i went to get a refill.
