I wanted to open carry today, but I was at an IDPA match and they make you wear a concealment garment.

PetSmart and Walmart.

Yesterday evening I OC'd to the Taco Bell in Greenfield, then to Advanced Auto in Greenfield.

Local grocery and Walmart. Got a few looks,but no one said anything. Even talked to local county officer that was in there off duty.

Serious question. If it's a shooting match, why would you have to conceal? And what kind of "garment" do you have to wear? Or is this all just a joke and I'm getting laughed at?

It would have been funnier if your name was Janie.

I decided to do an open carry attending to the Organizing for America rally at a local hotel. They were NOT pleased. (organizing for america is a local lib movement where a bunch of people who know nothing about nothing get together and talk about how obama is the messiah. Don't ask how I found out about said meeting.)

Your leg isn't being pulled. It's part of IDPA rules to shoot from concealment.

First day of OCing for me. Went to West Lafayette Menards and Walmart. About 1 hour of OCing (baby steps) haha. Felt great, comfortable, and no one seemed to notice. Don't know if I'm going to make a habit out of it yet since the wife had problems with me "showing off" my gun. But it was nice since the weather was hot and the shorts fit tighter than my jeans.

I am surprised, at Menards, even letting you in the door, several years ago, I heard a guy, on a call-in talk radio show, tell about how he was CC'ing, in Menards, and he was escorted to the door, by Mgt., saying how their, corp., policy, was NO FIREARMS, in the store, has something changed ?????

carried in Janesville kicked out of menards - Wisconsin - Stories From The States - OpenCarry.org - Discussion Forum

Wisconsin Carry, Inc. - Chairman

I just got off the phone with Bill Worley, the assistant store manager at Menards in Janesville.

The staff at the Janesville store was unaware Open-Carry was legal in Wisconsin.

Menards DOES NOT have a policy against open-carry by law-abiding citizens so long a they are not behaving otherwise inappropriately and abiding within the law.

Mr. Worley advised me that kawisixer01 was doing nothing wrong and behaving completely appropriately.

The store management called Janesville police and Janesville police verified for the store management that Open-carry is LEGAL.

Mr. Worley advised me that we are welcome to carry in their store in the future (of course respecting all laws and behaving appropriately)

Menards is a Wisconsin based corporation and I'm happy to say that we are welcome to continue to patronize their store. Kawisixer, you are welcome to open-carry when you shop at Menards in Janesville in the future.

Carry On

Carried my taurus 85 in lafayette today at Gordans food service and then kfc. This was my first attempt at open carry, had people standing right beside me at the kfc buffet line. Narry a word.

Because nothing goes with open carrying like 35 pound bags of frozen shrimp.

I carried openly downtown today while getting coffee. No one cared.

This seems to be the reaction I get most places, although there are certain areas in town where people seem to be a little iffy about it.

 

[IMPD31323]

Still seems like a better idea to me to just carry concealed and have nobody know i have a gun until its use is justified. Just my 2 cents.

There are numerous threads for discussing OC vs. CC.

This isn't one of them.
