Changing a tire.
Hi, thought I would relate an incident that happened to me last friday. It went well, did I recruit anyone, not sure but...
I was headed north to visit my parents and came across a couple of young ladies with a flat tire so I stopped to help them out. I was OCing in the car as it is easier and did not bother to cover as I got out. As I was helping out one of the ladies asked why I carried a gun, I said "for protection. You never know when you might need it, just like a spare tire" as I was lifting the spare out of the trunk. I thought it fit perfectly. Anyways no further discussion on my weapon and the tire got changed and the ladies went on their way.

You should have offered to take them out for some target practice, just to see their reaction.

Good job being an ambassador of open carry. I think we all have this opportunity on an almost daily basis and it is something we should all strive to do. Be polite, show the sheep that someone with a gun isn't something to be automatically afraid of.
You did well.
