    Decided to open carry today as my wife and I were going to Sams. Lots of villainy in the area. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0znNiN0lYAQ
    .
    Anyway, I strut around the warehouse with my air-weight displayed on my hip. No women or children ran into the chip isle to avoid me, drats.
    .
    As I stood in the check out line, a man came up to me and said, "Thanks for carrying today, I have one but left it in the truck".
    .
    I said you are welcome, then made some remark about how I paid good money for my lifetime LTCH and was out to get full use out of it.
    .
    We kissed on both cheeks, he was French I hope, and went on our separate ways.
    .
    Never had anyone thank me for open carrying, but thought that was a class way of encouraging a fellow 2A patriot.

    We do already have a thread for this. :stickpoke:

    Anywho, glad to hear it was a positive interaction. Did you ask the guy why he bothers to bring a gun but leave it in the car?

    I was in Culver's about a month ago with my wife's Italian relatives that actually live in Naples Italy. They were fascinated with all my firearms and how different our laws are, anyways, I see this guy with a .50 cal Desert Eagle on his left hip. Talk about noticeable. I struck up a conversation with him, and the wife's cousin and daughter even got pictures with him. It was a lot of fun. We even compared my 9mm 147gr HST to his .50 cal HP. Big difference by the way. Nobody called the cops or nothing. :laugh:

    Got my hair trimmed yesterday. My hairdresser o.c.s pretty regularly, so I didn't think anything about taking off my pullover before sitting down. I did elicit an "Oh, my!" from one of her co workers, though. Not sure if it was my old beater 226, or my maturely godlike physique. Oh, well. They're both pretty impressive.

    That's excellent dudely confidence. We look in the mirror and see Adonis looking back at us . . . because he IS.

    Im still wondering how you held up your Airweight with no pants, and were still able to do this?
    Furthermore, I’m surprised the folks at Sams didn’t say anything about no pants, it isn’t Walmart after all! Sams is a little classier.

    True Story:

    When I lived in California, there was guy who was the nephew of Norm Van Brockin, who played in the NFL from 1949 to 1960. I won't name his nephew, but I will say that he was enormously strong and a competitive powerlifter. Nephew had a nickname for himself that he alleged was given to him by his wife: the Ultimate Male.

    At first when he would admire himself in the mirror and announce that he was, in fact, the Ultimate Male, I thought he was joking. He was not, shall we say, a conventionally handsome man. Nor was he an unconventionally handsome man. Dude's face would stop a clock!

    Later in life I realized: he actually believed it. When he looked in the mirror, he saw the Ultimate Male and nothing else.

    That's how we roll!
