I went over July 4th week and was OC'ing the whole time. Never a second-glance from anyone: boating, stage play, hotels, restaurants, restaurants, restaurants. I know there were no second-glances because it was my first time doing it with my family of 5 outside of Texas. Boy, were they conscious of it, and I asked them about second-glances.

Never saw a cop though. They'll demand papers if they want to.

What one needs to analyze is public policy procedures in response to the noticed or unnoticed reception that one receives while open carrying. That is the question you need to be addressing to yourself.

On my property and on friends' whenever I can.

Does on your own property real count :lol:

I carry on mine all time and besides the wife I don't see ay body else there for weeks at a time.:)
Think it is like a dry run/practice - getting used to it.

Still like the tree falling in the forest - is it really OC if no one in the public sees it :)

Soon, Texans.......soon.

Got back from Branson last night. No issues to report. OC 100% of the time. Hotel, restaurants, stores and the strip. No one seemed to care, if they did notice. The only place I didn't carry was inside Silver Dollar City and Whitwater. I didn't figure my gun wanted to go swiming. LOL.

On a side note, I did see a lot of pickups driving all over town with large Confederate Battle Flags, flying proudly from the back of them ;)

yeah, that is Mo in general thinking the removal of a flag cause of "it's racist and some racist guy shot people" cause of overly thin skinned overly sensitive sissies is stupid.

Glad to see/hear Branson has relaxed. They have a city ordinance for OC w/CCW. They used to lean on it frequently.
