Oddly enough, the gun shows in my neck of the woods are carry free zones complete with police and metal detectors.

“Hmmm. “Whip it out?” That’s brandishing!! ”

I didn’t mean *literally*, dumbass!!!

Hmmm. “Whip it out?” That’s brandishing!!

Imagine the 911 call, “Help! There’s a guy here in Publix. He pulled out a gun and he’s waving it around. Get here fast. PLEASE!”

Bad idea . . . very bad idea.

“If the NAA isn’t mistaken for a charm.”

Pretty much, i actually got it for when people say I’m compensating for having a small dick, I can prove that the gun I’m carrying is smaller than the one I was born with.

Nice way to shut them up… 😉

If the NAA isn’t mistaken for a charm.

Overall, I prefer ‘concealed carry’ – I see no reason to give a potential opponent more information than I have to. “Is he carrying concealed, or not??” I dunno, take your chances, @$$hole, and find out.

OTOH, almost any concealed carry is slightly slower to deploy than open carry. I long for the day when open carry is so endemic that no one thinks twice about it. Then, I might start carrying open.

Hey, I can dream, can’t I????

I’m pleasantly surprised at the Publix Corporation taking this position, I fully expected to see a sign saying (something along the lines of) “Publix Politely Requests no Open Carry in our stores”.

Since at all times I carry a NAA Mini-Revolver in a vertical neck holster under my shirt, it will be a pleasure to ‘Whip It Out’ the next time I’m visiting, just to see what a reaction I’ll get, from staff and customers.

I’ll be certain to not antagonize any Leftist Scum ™ that may have a problem with displayed freedom… 😉
