"TOTAL FIREARMS IS OPEN CARRY FRIENDLY"

If thats the case and they want to extend an olive branch maybe we could do an OC shoot at their range and they could offer a discounted range fee? That would really show how OC friendly they are.

Open carry my CZ75 at Foodland in Bay City on Sat night without issue, in fact, they opened another checkout lane and insisted I go first

Foodland...is that a grocery store or a restaurant?

Welcome to our forum. Consider making a post about you in the introduction area.

Grocery store. That's why they have check out lanes.

Didn't feel like conceal carry after church Sunday, so ditched the jacket and went OC to Wendy's, Speedway, and Wally-World without incident

I don't know how many people noticed my Llama III-A against my large frame. I think most people that do notice are too afraid to say anything even if they don't like it.

Open carried into Home Depot and Speedway. I spoke with a gentleman about this site and passed him MSP update no. 86. He was interested in the myths of open carry. Tomorrow i'm open carrying at the Flint bikes on the bricks Harley ride starting at eleven am sharp at Vehicle City Harley.

We rode our Honda 1100 about 40mi open carry today (first time on the bike) no incident. Started out of Bay City on M13 south to Washington, by the LOW numbered streets of Sagnasty and across the bridge, right by the now infamous Riverview Plaza (of Milton Hall shooting fame). After that, just around the township, up Bay Rd back into Bay City, stopped at Jacks Fruit Market, no issues anywhere. I must say, the best reception we got was right near the Riverview Plaza where a couple of thug looking guys smiled and waved from their car next to us

Carry on!

Another great weekend of OC in the great lakes bay region. After only a couple weeks, I am getting real comfortable with OC. Had a short little ride around town on the bike OC but the most interesting was coming back to BC on M13. I got a phone call from one of my tower crews and had to pull over to get my laptop out and do a signal check for him (my day job). Well, after just a couple min working on the laptop and on the phone, I glanced up in my rear view and saw that oh so familiar red gumball

Turns out the LEO was just checking to see if I were broken down and needing assistance and quickly left me alone once he found out I had just pulled over for safety (I usually do not pull over, just type on the laptop on the pax seat as I go, but that's a whole other story...)

Stopped at the Walmart in Clio this evening looking for .45's--no issues, then went to Wendy's in Clio agin no issues.

So, in preparation for my (hopefully soon to come) Mi. CPL I've been OCing in Paw Paw this week. At work in which I am in and outdoors around different people. I get to walk to the various fast food joints for lunch. No looks, nobody running. Heck I feel bad after reading so many "stories" about what happens here in Michigan.

The people I've encountered and their reactions isn't any different than what I have experienced in Arizona. I am sure I will run into situations once I am carrying more, but I believe I know how to handle those situations from my years of carrying and with help from reading/learning here.

I open carried yesterday.

TucTom · « **Reply #614 on:** October 08, 2012, 02:29:37 PM »

OC'd at Subway in Paw Paw about 10 min ago.
The only issue was I forgot my chips. Now I will walk back.
Update - I got Harvest Cheddar Sun Chips.

Riveting. Though the Garden Salsa are better.

I was torn...
The guy behind the counter did ask me if I've always carried when I have been there. I let him know that I have recently started carrying openly again. He told me a customer who was pulling in as I left the first time asked him about it. Seems the employees didn't even notice at all in the last week.
