I have been Open Carrying in Seattle now for the past few months on a regular basis (mainly the green lake, wallingford areas, but I have in Downtown and Queen Anne as well). I conduct all of my regular business and errands while carrying. Not one store has asked me to leave. Including the QFC, Hollywood Video, Primo Burgers, and Bartells in Green Lake. I have only had a couple of strange looks, from a couple of strange looking people haha. Never been stopped or questioned by local law enforcement. However I always carry a copy of the Washington State Gun Laws in my pocket just in case.
You can go here to print out a copy for your state http://www.nraila.org/GunLaws/#?st=WA
I should also add that I do not have a CPL (Concealed Pistol License) for Washington State, nor do intend on obtaining one. It's not that I would have trouble, I just do not see the point. If the NRA is right (I am a member) and Obama goes through with many of his anti-gun ideas and proposed legislation; all CLP holders will be suspect. I am an Armed Forces Military Police Veteran and don't believe in Obama's proposed "common sense gun laws."
