Hey guys, just had my first e check and figured I would post it. Im new to open carry but I have been open carrying every day since I started. Ive carried quite at bit in Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Los Altos. Im not sure if "the movement" has spread down to these cities, ive never seen anyone else open carry. I sort of feel like the first. So far no one seemed to care too much. I guess this night an employee or customer called in a 10-32(man with a gun), or maybe it was just a coincidence that they showed up. I tried to be as polite as possible and be a good "ambassador" for open carry(I figured LEO around here maybe havent seen open carry in person, only in videos)while at the same time not handing over all my rights.
Im pleased to report that Menlo Park PD seems to have received training in regards to open carriers. The encounter went pretty smoothly i think. No guns out and screaming :lol: I will admit I was a bit nervous, so I rambled a bit talking about the firing pin spring and such. I meant to say one thing, and something else came out :lol: Either way here it is, audio only.
