    Default OC First Night Pittsburgh

    Well, I openly carried a firearm at the First Night Pittsburgh festivities last night.

    AND....








    NOTHING HAPPENED!!!!

    One other added benefit of openly carrying is the people hounding you for money for various things leave you alone


    Some detail officers even asked what I was carrying. I even walked past the command truck many times and was not bothered.

    Happy New Year!! Be safe in '09.

    I told them it was a Taurus pt111 pro.

    I just got a Sig Sauer P226 for xmas but don't have enough range time with it.

    I still carry the Taurus because I know what she can do.
