Had a very productive Saturday,
Went to the shootist and fired a couple hundred rounds on the 9mm and on the 22LR. Guys at that locations are pretty cool. Place could use a new coat of paint and better ventilation but who's looking right? I didnt really understand their rule about calling the Range Master if you have a Miss feed on your weapon but its not a big deal.
After that my wife had told me she needed me to go to the bank so for the 1st time I went into my bank OC'ing. :S I wont lie, I was a bit nervous. I was asking my self when the patrons would hit the floor and a cashier would hit the panic botton ( I have a big imagination) anyhow, everything went just fine, a couple of people noticed my side arm but that was about it. No issue what so ever at the Wells Fargo Bank over by Wadsworth and Alameda in Lakewood.
In the afternoon I took my wife out to the movies (The new Snow white movie, I know its a chic flick but the villan was pretty hot). When we're about to leave I decide to hit the restroom. As Im washing my hands an older gentlemen approaches me and says: I hope you're a police officer.............
I tell him no I am not, why? He says: because of your..... and points at my Ruger. I replied back well its a right that the constitution gives me to keep and bear arms Sir (I didnt realize being comfronted about my side arm would also raise my heart beat, I know Im such a newbie). His response was well at least you should conceal it.... At that point I realized he was not interested in learning about Open Carry but he just felt uncomfortable with me OC my side arm. So instead of trying to chit chat with him in a restroom full of people I just told him...... Why? I dont have to and just left at that point.
I find it pretty amazing how people are just willing to give up their rights and then feel uncomfortable/upset when I decide to excersise mine.
Overall it was a good weekend to OC.
