Here in Wyoming I see at least three other people open carrying every time I go in to town. Occasionally a tourist will question how we can do so, otherwise comments are positive. Several times in a store or restaurant I've unloaded a weapon and handed it to somebody who is intrigued by the miniature red dot sight. I spent 17 years as a reserve officer in southern California working among hostile crowds and doing bar checks in taverns and nightclubs. I feel confident in my weapon retention abilities, and have never felt threatened here. Well, other than that time a bull climbed over the berm and advanced on the firing line at a nearby gun club. That made me a little nervous.
