The other day I went to a gunshop new to me, but it's been around for about 40 years or so. As i pulled in, there was an individual standing outside with an AR on a single-point sling with his hand on the grip; he was even indexing the trigger as I walked up. He put out his cigarette, asked if I needed any help and opened the door for me.
I soon realized he worked there and though he was plenty courteous, I am still left pondering if it were a very good idea on his part. I open carry in Virginia where legal and have no problem with carrying handguns in holsters, but this is somewhat ridiculous in my mind. He was on a busy street corner in broad daylight, not in some backwoods dirt road shooting range.
I believe the concern here is: Is this at all legal? I'd also like to know what everyone else thinks on the subject considering different states allow different carrying.
-Thanks!
