OC'ed today at the age of 20
Well after reading some threads and realizing that it is legal for me to OC at 20, I decided today was the day.
I took my dog for a 2 mile walk around the neighborhood. And I must say that at first I was rather nervous, but after a couple minutes I really didn't mind so much. The whole time all I could think to myself was don't get arrested and think of something so say if someone shouts that I have a firearm.
All and all I think it was a rather liberating experience and I'm quite tempted to walk over to my polling place and cast my vote while OC'ing.Machinist for hire - Get a hold of me if you need something made

..have a plan to kill everyone you ever meet. No, really, my personal motto. Good for situational awareness/boredom.
Good job on the OC, glad you had a positive experience.
I think its time we start a little mini-group of PAFOA, "OC under 30". I think a different experience is had when youre in your 20s and you carry. Common public has a preconception of our age group as being the rowdy, shakey type. When we dont fit that profile, we are either assumed to be older, or veiwed as a strange anomally.
Not saying you should be expecting a negative experience when OCing @ 20, Im 23, and have been OCing for almost a year, and have yet to be 'hassled by the man'.

S&W M&P 9 in a Comp Tac belt Holster, no spare mag or anything. I figured 17 rounds is more than enough. I was wearing sneakers, nice jeans and a nice t-shirt, and a baseball hat. I'm clean cut and have a high and tight hair cut, so someone could potentially pass me off for being .mil or police though I unlikely with my age.
Next time I might have to carry the SA TRP in the Wilson practical.

I almost bought that yesterday in .40... but it would have hurt the pocket book too much.
