When it starts to get warm I switch over to open carry most of the time. I am a bit over 60 years old, and we will leave it at that. In the last three weeks I have been stopped five times about open carry. All five were young people, under 25 years old. Three were university students at BGSU. Being a university town we see new students every year. I would think that I was stopped about 25 times last year. I do not see any other people open carry but there must be others in town. I get stopped often enough and asked about open carry and concealed carry that I have started to carry business cards for concealed carry training in the area. I am pleased to see so many young people interested. Good for our future.

Re: helping the kids
I rarely open carry but I do try to take as many people as I can shooting with me and my friends from BGSU. I definitely converted a few from "guns aren't for me" to "time to save up for a pistol and rifle."
Whereabouts town do you frequent?
There are a few others around here. We should have a meet and greet.

Re: helping the kids
about the only time I'm in BG (town) a lot anymore is for Fair week. I go to friend's a lot in BG but rarely leave their property.

Re: helping the kids
I second the little meet and greet.. I live here in town and have had quite a few odd looks when I OC..
They don't expect a young kid to be open carrying.. I actually just got back home from open carrying at the black swamp hippie show walking my old lady up town so she could meet up with friends.
