    I was nekked!

    Have you ever been standing at the bar and reach back for your wallet, only to realize you forgot your pants? Yep that is how I felt when I landed in San Antonio.

    It was a hot day........okay, I'm not going to write an essay on this. :lol: I was in the bank last week and when I was leaving, the bank guard (a woman) was holding the door for me. As I thanked her to leave she said, "Sir" and I turned around to look at her. She started out asking me what...

    A few good experiences

    Life is interesting and carrying openly just adds to the experiences. I have a friend who owns a shoe repair shop. He does all my holster work by the way. I was in there the other day and he was telling me about this Korean woman who comes in from time to time to have her shoes repaired. He told...

    I was told to leave Walmart in Fountain Colorado because I was open carrying. The information is below. I called the home office Tuesday and the guy told me, "Well, it is private property", and then gave me a survey on his knowledge of the subject. He said he would pass it on and I should get a...

    I got 2 pints against me on the Firing Line Forum?

    A few weeks ago I was perusing the Firing Line forum. I came across one of the famous arguments concealed carriers like to start to badmouth us open carriers.

    Ideas for a cripple's wants.

    I met a young fella on a forum who has Diastrophic Dysplasia. it is a birth defect that dwarfs and deforms the person. He is about 3' tall and in a wheelchair.

    Day after Black Friday carry

    My wife and I went Christmas shopping today. I figured I would be accosted for my open carry, but no-one said a thing. I talked to other customers casually and even tickled some baby cheeks in the buggies. All without incidence. We shopped at the Springs Wal-mart on 8th street, Hobby Lobby on...

    Good experience

    My wife and I went to Big R to get a drain part and afterward decided to get a hamburger. She was driving and drove into the local Wendy's. Of course I have been carrying openly all of this time. We got in line and in front of us was half of the Fountain police dept. They could easily tell I was...

    Why is Pueblo so quiet

    I was putting my handgun in my holster this morning and started wondering why we don't here anyone from Pueblo on this forum. It would be nice to find out if anyone carries down there because my wife and I may end up retiring in that area. I would sure hate to move down there and find I'm the...

    Woodland Park Library

    After about 2 1/2 months open carrying I had my first experience with the Woodland Park Library being the problem. My son and I drove up to Woodland Park just to mess around. I wanted to go into the library to see the staircase that I designed several years ago. Being an Arch draftsman, I have...

    I dropped into an enemy camp

    I dropped into an enemy camp and need backup. I was playing on the net the other night and came across a thread on open carry (or any carry as it turned out). I was reading and doing fine until they started talking about rewriting the Constitution and other socialist crap. A lot of these people...
