    First time OCing?

    Several years ago there used to be a tradition of someone OCing for the first time to go to Walmart and get some nachos. Well, no Walmart I know of has nachos any longer so I have spotted an alternative. The Buford Highway Farmers Market has nachos and seems at least OC neutral. I OC there...

    Appropriate attire to OC

    I have heard many times that one needs to have a "neat" and "clean cut" appearance if they are going to OC. I call BS on this. It is my personal experience that choise of appearance has ZERO to do with if someone will be treated poorly while OCing....One might be treated better if clean shaven...

    Do you open carry "loaded"?

    Inspired by a statement in a recent post and not finding a poll about carrying loaded I thought I would strike up the "loaded" verses "unloaded" OC debate. Edit: Since this has been moved I guess I need to add... This is assuming it is legal to carry with a round chambered.

    imported post So, does anyone have or know the process for obtaining an "unlimited license" pistol licence in Lee County? Or anywhere else for that matter.

    First real OC encounter
