Since I have started my new job, I have not been carrying all day long in a while. I can not open carry at work, like I did at my last job. I have gotten into a routine and havnt really thought about it till today. I leave for work and since I cant carry at work, I dont even bother strapping it on, I take it out the door with me in my hand and when I get in my car I stuff it in between the two seats. Thats where it resides until I get home and remove it and carry it inside, in my hand. I dropped my keys on the way in and switched hands when I picked them up and looked out on the sidewalk and saw a guy looking at me. I dont know wether he saw my firearm or not, but it made me think back to the recent post about a guy holding his pistol while police were inspecting his backyard. At first a thought hit me "what if he called the police to report a guy going into a house with a gun in his hand"? I carry it holstered and I am new to the nieghborhood. But then as I walked inside a second thought hit me, "what the hell do I care? I am carrying my firearm from my house to my car in my driveway, and from the car to my house when I get home. This is my residence and if they dont like it, too bad. I'll clean my freaking guns on my front steps if I feel like it".
I did start wondering though, could I be harrased by LEO for "brandishing" in my own yard? I havent seen much about openly handling handguns in plain site on private property.
What do you all think?
