I have always CC'd...recently, thanks to another website, I have been testing the waters of liberty and OCing...I DO get looks ...HOWEVER...when I OC during the day, I am alwas dressed in a dress shirt, tie and dress slacks...so I assume that most people take me for LEO/Detective. I never get a sideways glance. This has workd in my favor because it has helped to increase my confidence in OCing AND since I am pretty friendly wth staff at any store and will call them by their name if they have a tag on, people know me by sight and accept me carrying.
I am ALWAYS very concious about how I carry and where. If I think I may be received negatively, or there i ny obt in my mind, I CC. I always have an IWB and an OWB holster in my vehicle and can switch out...I WILL NOT be wthout my cocked nad locked 1911 if I can help it.
It does make me wonder though ...how would I be treated ..IF...I showed up wth ratty baggy shorts pulled low under my butt cheeks, dirty tank top and flip flops...
GONZO!!!
