Well, I finally got my first hand gun today. A 9MM Glock 19 Gen 4. I also opened carryed for the first time as well.

Walmart Albermarle rd.

No issues. Had a cart pusher ask me if I was a detective. I politlely told him "No, I just carry for my self protection." he smiled and told me to have a good day. Ran into a worker who worked at the sporting goods section. She told me her husband was a member of Opencarry.org as well. Had about a 25 min conversation with her. Very nice lady.


Mcdonalds on sharon amity.

No encounters. Got my lunch and ate it without incident.



Walmart in Concord.

No incidents. was there visiting a buddy who worked there.


Gamestop, concord.

Got my battlefield 3 xbox game. No issues.




Went to the range and fired 150 rounds. Love the feel of the glock. Hope to see yall at the next meeting!

Thanks dude! Was a awesome experience for sure. Nervous at first but quickly gained confidence when I assured myself I was doing absolutely nothing wrong.
