Hello all! New to the forums, I am from Mocksville and just recently got a handgun. It's a FMK (For My Kountry) 9MM. Pretty nifty and got it and a nice holster for around 450$ at best fire arms, anyways, was just wondering if you guys had any encounters in or around Mocksville / Davie County or good/bad experiences in stores? ?

Well this thread caught my eye as I'm in the process of getting ready to move out of Rowan County to Davie County hopefully here in the next couple of weeks. Mine have barrel lengths too long to be concealled, so I always open carry them. I know the manager at the O'Reilly's in Mocksville, he used to be here in Salisbury and is used to seeing me carry my .44. I hope they don't freak out at Southern States as that is where I'll probably be buying most of my horse feed, and will likely be buying materials at the Lowe's there for my barn.

Walking Wolf,Remington Army .44 and on occasion a .36 Navy Colt.

I have those, I carry normally a Navy conversion, but have several cap and ball Navies. I also have Remy and a Colt Walker Second Model Dragon, due to it's weight I have never carried the Second Model for a open carry revolver.

Grizzly I may try that as here in the Salisbury Walmart, people start freaking out if someone even mentions the word gun. I normally carry mine in a cross draw style holster that was made for my Colt but right now carrying my Remington in it.

I have been working on a cross draw holster for my navies, but I ran out of thread last night. :cry:

I am hoping that the wife will be able to find a roll of 80# test upholster thread at Wally World, but I doubt it. She has taken my bug to carry, so now I need to carry a second navy for a bug.

I would like to see some pics of holsters you've made. I have a "thing" for leather, even though I have been using my kydex XD holster frequently lately.
