So I've been OCing my 1911 all week (and probably all next week) due to my PF9 getting a new coat to wear courtesy ofa friendsconnection.
And since I normally OC about once or twice a week I decided to go all out and go to as many places as I can to give it some exposure and test the sheeple.
Funny part is that the only one that's said a word to me yet was a little boy of about 4 or 5 years of age. He was walking out of the local gas and go with his Dad yesterday and turns to him and says....
Little Boy (LB): Look Daddy, a Policeman!
Dad: (doesn't look up) Yep, sure is.....
LB: What kind of gun is that? It's cool!
Dad: (finally looks up) That's a..... Oh! That's not a policeman son, (best part of this right here!) that's just a Man excercising his 2nd Amendment rights!
LB: What's that Dad???
Dad: Why don't you ask this gentelmen what he thinks? I'll bet he has a good answer for you. (he then winks at me)
LB: What's 2nd menaments mean Sir? (as cute as it gets! lol)
So I stopped and talked to the boy and his Dad for a few and left feeling pretty good about that little boys odds of growing up with the right attitude and learning from his Dad!
Other than that I've barely even garnered a few looks at me and the gun. And usually when I carry once or twice a week I get at least a couple of OMG stares or even questions. Which I must admit I kind of enjoy. In my mind it means I'm helping to cement our 2A rights as well as helping to educate the sheeple.
