I cocked my head to the side a little and was admiring his piece
I had a clerk look at me slightly funny and ask if I was carrying. I said yes, and how did it know? He said he saw a bulge under my shirt. I told him I had a 9 and hoped he was getting nervous.
He said "Hope, mine's bigger." and drew a 45 out.
Negative. It wasn't pointed, and he handed it to me a moment later while I handed him mine. I'm not explaining it well, but all was safe and fine.
This is how a ND situation happens.

So, while standing in line at a local eatery to pick up my called in order, I noticed that the guy in front of me was OC. I cocked my head to the side a little and was admiring his piece. .45 colt was all i could make out before he spun around, hand rested on the grip and spit out "the **** you lookin at boy?"
Looked me up and down, grabbed his bag of food, and left.
first, i was standing 3 feet back from him
second, i'm 6'2" 300
third, i'm 37 with a scraggly beard (i hate shaving) so "boy" isn't really a term I would apply to myself.
did i break some unspoken rule of open carry etiquette? I wasn't standing on top of the guy. I wasn't threatening in any way. I wasn't reaching to touch his big freakin revolver. I was simply looking, from a respectable distance, at the gun hanging off his belt.

Wonder when the Bunnykid guy will see this.
