The John Deer dealer just outside of Richmond. My second time OCing and it well. Walked in, was treated well, paid for my parts, and left. I can't tell you how satisfying it was. I have been carrying a handgun since 08 but always CC because I feared being "hassled" if I OCed. I always hated concealing my handgun 100% of the time because I felt like I had something to hide and the handgun I concealed was too small for my hands anyway.
I have been reading the OC threads with interest for the last couple of months. I had reached a comfort level with personal gun ownership that I was now ready take take the next step forward and OC. The essay that tipped me over the edge was this one here:

I tried to rep you, but apparently have to spread it around.
Congrats.
I agree with the fact that why should I go to all the work to hide, when I'm not doing anything wrong.
And the few times I've CCd, I wonder, did it always suck that bad?
Cause OCing is 100 times more comfortable.

I figure if their lights are off and they're just driving, they're setting an example. If they're going 30 over, that's how fast they think we should drive.Also found out you can drive +30mph over on 465... as long as the cop is in front of you, not behind you. It was like a personal police escort to my office!
So weird the things you do and don't get pulled over for.
