Been open carrying all day. No one has seemed to notice.

It's Nebraska?  If I open carried anything, someone would ask what I was hunting, and expect me to get whatever it was.

Everyone probably thinks you're a "plain-clothesed cop".

I'm still too wussy to try it. That and I need a different OWB holster.

when I do it seems like the further west I am the more anguished looks I get. cops seem to just smile and wave. A buddy of mine had  a gas station owner have a mini freak out,  then a cop came in and said 'meh'.  That was in Bellevue though.

Some uber nerd at the gas staion on 156th and Blondo threatened to call the cops on me for open carrying. I told him I would go ahead and get a slurpy and wait then since the sheriffs dept was just up the street.

Mmm.  I'm really torn on the whole open carry thing.  I fully support the rights of those who want to do it.  On the other hand I see no reason to draw the attention of the sheeple or the PoPo.  I carry concealed because I do not want attention drawn to myself nor do I want to tip my hand to any would be adversaries.

Just my random morning thoughts.......

Dude. I can walk to that gas station. That would probably be my first stop if I decided to try it.

That's always been what I've thought.  I don't want the attention.

And that's what they want, conformists. You don't want to be seen as out of ordinary, but if we all do it, open carry will become the norm.

Your right.  I don't want to be seen as out of the ordinary.  But has nothing to do with being a conformist.  It has to do with, for lack of a better term, OPSEC.  

I do agree with the last part of your statement but unfortunately in today's world I don't think it will ever happen.

"911, what's your emergency?"

"I need help!  There's a man with a gun here."

"Calm down, sir.  What is the man doing?"

"He's drinking a Slurpee.  He has his phone out.  He might be sending a text message, or maybe playing Candy Crush."

I won't do it, but fully support your endeavors OP. It's legal for you to do and that's all that matters. Be careful the gas station doesn't have a no firearms sign. Then they could legitimately ask you to leave.

Free Mako E-Lander magazine loaded with 25 rounds of ASYM 75grn Match to the first person to go into the same gas station open carrying an AR with video.

The only holsters I have right now are for a Glock 35. Extra fullsize should be no big deal for open carry but even with a holster close to the body I can't really sit in my car properly. It has "sporty" seats and both the muzzle end and the grip hit different parts of the bolsters. I'll stick to in home only which is fine for me right now.
