Have another couple of good days OC'ing and some CC'ing (when the temps dropped at night) around here.
Yesterday I went to Bethel Tailor off of Big Bethel Road, as well as the "Goin' Postal" right there in that plaze - had to get my Utah non-resident application notarized, the Chevy dealership on Mercury Blvd, the Driver Station post office and the dry cleaners off of Bridge Road (beside Farm Fresh).
Today, I went to 2 gun shops: A&P on Mercury Blvd and Superior Pawn & Gun, also on Mercury Blvd. I ended up buying a 2nd gun for carrying: a Ruger LCP. Also got a range membership in case anyone is up for some shooting some time? (Ladies??) I then went to the Chevy dealership again to drop off my car, and to the Walmart on Jefferson to return a light bulb and right behind me I heard, "Is that real?" "Ma'am, is that a real gun on you?" To which I turned around and discussed politely that an law-abiding citizen over 18 can open-carry. She has a felony conviction in her history so we discussed that for a moment, but she was just amazed that you could carry a gun out in the open like that. I handed her one of my cards designed by Ed and she read through it and thought that was cool.
I also attempted to go into Buffalo Wild Wings (I had a craving for wings), but stopped at the front door when I saw a big sign saying that they ban all firearms there. So, I locked my gun up and went in for some wings and resumed my day.
Grabbing my gun at the beginning of the day is beginning to feel more natural, as is carrying one with me each time I venture outside of the home.
Thanks for all the info here guys. I really appreciate what I read.
