First I want to thank all who have posted here. I went to the first threads and worked my way to the current threads and learned alot.

Last Friday evening I went to an art festival in downtown Logan. I was a little nervous knowing so many people were going to be there. Also I was unsure how they were going to react. Needless to say it went pretty well. Only one jaw dropped, and when I was near a group of 3 ten year old girls they seemed to be a little nervous. Other than that nobody seemed to mind or notice. One Logan city police officer passed by without saying anything.

Other times I have open carried were at the farmers market in Logan. With all the liberals that frequent I was a little concearned that there might be some sort of confrontation. I was wrong, nothing but friendly greetings and smiles.

I also filled up at a gas station on west side of town that the sheriff's department is known to frequent. None were there when I pulled in, but after I came out from paying there was a plain clothes detective on the other side of the pump I was using. I think he did a double take when he noticed but didn't say a word.

Over all it has been a good experience, and I get more confident each time. Again thanks for the many threads that have been posted that helped acquaint me with the law.

Welcome To Open Carry

Hi - and welcome to the forum. I believe you will find, as I did, that Utah is a very 2nd Amendment friendly State. I relocated here from the People's Socialist Republic of Wisconsin (although that is changing with a Republican Governor, Republican Assembly, and Republican Senate).

Please watch the forum for the social get-together events that occur, both open-carry and concealed carry. We are a likeable collection of humankind and in our ranks you will find everyone from newbie to very experienced shooters and even some NRA and BCI Certified Instructors. We are always happy to share and answer questions.

So, again, welcome to the forum and the world of open carry.

Carry on...
