+1 on attire, man. I don't CC because I don't like to "dress to the gun" but here I do it anyway. I try to present a professional image any time I carry. Don't go overboard, though. Generally a polo or a plain shirt and jeans is what Ill wear. It certainly helps people relax if you look and act like an adult. Don't play with it, don't pose to show it off. Best advice I could possibly give would be to act as though your gun doesn't exist, and soon enough you will forget that it does -- except when its needed. If someone asks questions, be polite. When your telling them about the law get as close to verbatim as you possibly can with statutes and please, make sure you cite a reference. That will go farther than most think. If a police officer asks what you are doing and you quote a statue, hes far more likely to be more polite back. If you see another OCer, compliment them and then try to get together again sometime, we all need to stick together. Welcome on and have fun.
