I live in Florida, so OC is not normally an option. But I spend a fair amount of time in GA and I OC there.
I got a new Serpa for my G-17/G-22 and took it along this weekend.
dressed in shorts and a green t-shirt
black Glock 17 in a black serpa on my strong side hip blackberry on the other
Sunglasses and a safety orange baseball cap
Northern Georgia in or near Statesboro
I don't normally shop at wal-mart but Dad needed a tree stand and they had one on sale. Saturday at 1:30PM. It doesn't get much more crowded. Two or three people had a slightly shocked look when they saw my gun. Three or four others saw it and smiled/nodded including one employee. No one else seemed to notice.
More or less the same thing in the Grocery store.
Two gas stations and no one that I saw noticed.
At a third gas station, the clerk noticed when I bought a gatorade and was a bit taken aback but that was it. An old timer that I let go in before me, notice on the way out and smiled, again thanking me for holding the door for him.
The sheeple :sheep: who got scared was at a gas station at exit 3 (I-95) right before crossing back into Florida.
I walked into the bathroom for the obvious reason. He was standing by the sink talking to his buddy who was wetting his head to remove hat head. Two truckers (a truck stop station). He moves out of the way and I use a stall. He is again in the way when I want to wash my hands. He moves over closer to his buddy and when he does, he sees my gun in the mirror.
He stops in mid sentence, moves even closer to his buddy and all color drains from his face. I wash my hands then check that he hasn't moved and splash my face with water and grab a paper towel to dry off.
He is still silent and staring at my gun. His buddy finishes brushing his hair and asks what the problem is.
As I walk out, the sheeple stammers, that guy had a gun on his hip.
The hair brush guy says, so... he was probably a cop... and he seemed nice enough.
I didn't hear anymore as I left and walked out to the truck chuckling.
