I regularly open carry in the Aurora and Springfield areas. I have never had any big issues. I have found that if I am confronted by LEOs that even tho me providing ID and them securing my sidearm is not required (or lawful) unless they have probable cause it is usually easier and more effeciant. Yes I could school them on local and state laws. But doing so turns a 1-2 min stop into a 10-20 min stop. Today I carried in Basspro, AutoZone, and Wal-Mart. only got a few doubletakes at wal-mart.
