Default Terry stop...Terry frisk....who's Terry?

Sorry - I'm not fully up to speed on the lingo/terms we use here on PAFOA.
Is Terry a reference to a case?....Sort of like Megan's Law??





And also......

What's OC?

OC means Open Carry as in open carrying your firearm, the opposite of CC, which means Concealed carry. I have no idea what Terry means.

I would like to comment on this particular point. I agree. Though some people are too quick to dismiss Wikipedia, as long as you aren't sole-sourcing from Wikipedia and are getting agreements from other sources (pref not on the intarwebs) then you're usually fine. That being said, some things are more reliable than others on Wikipedia.

Thats pretty damn accurate right there.

Also, anybody can contribute to the Wiki, but only a select few can approve those comments/changes, so while mistakes do happen, and sometimes on purpose, their articles get fixed almost immediately.

If its on the wiki, I trust it.

Well, I don't single-source ANYTHING. Matter of personal policy.
