I'm in.  Depending on her schedule, my wife may be as well.

ETA:  How about the Arby's on Capital Boulevard, just South of 540?   Another forum member had an issue there very recently:

We can eat here on Jan 10, or at the Waffle House that a member had issues at.

 

 

I will be at PDSHC in Garner around 3:00 if anyone is interested in some range time before the dinner.

Are you guys planning to call ahead and/or talk to the manager about your plans to OC.  'Just curious.

And I'll try to come by while you're there. I don't know if I'll be OC'ing but I would like to say hello.

Better to ask for forgiveness than permission, I say ;).  Seriously, though, asking permission implies that they should have a reason to say no.  There's nothing illegal, dangerous, or inappropriate about carrying, so there's no reason to ask.

I may call and set up a birthday party for DreQo, but I won't be mentioning the OC meet.  As DreQo said, there is nothing illegal or alarming about what we are doing, so there is no need to ask permission.

We definitely don't want to call the manager and ask for permission. We should just show up OCing, order our meals and conduct ourselves as ladies & gentlemen quietly enjoying a meal and fellowship. They will he happy to have our business.

 

We should have a video camera and audio recorders at ready in case uninvited open carrying quests arrive (Cary PD) . Someone that is not open carrying with the video recorder would be excellent. I'm I expecting problems ? No, but I wasn't expecting problems at Arby's either and look what happen there. 

Looking forward to meeting all of you folks, this has been a long time coming and is going to be a great meet.

I'll have a Zoom H2 recorder and a covert microphone.  I've also got a small (pocket size) HD video recorder.  I will also be carrying a Commander Bobtail.

ETA: I can loan the recorders to someone who isn't carrying.

Looking at coming as I would like to meet as many ppl as possible and having a large group is always good. Might not be carrying (my pistol has not arrived yet) so I should be available as an "observer".

I have to work Saturday until at least 7:30. I'll try to drop by afterwards, but I might not be able to make it until 8. We'll see...

I'm sure that we will still be there.  I know what buffet means, and I take full advantage of it.

I wasn't trying to imply that the meeting is anything but lawful and reasonable. I support you 100%.

:D

But as we all know, some people are not always reasonable. And having a camera sounds like good idea... just in-case.

Today, we got invited to a family supper with two other families but 'll try to come by the OC meeting, if only for a few minutes.

And I want to join future OC dinners as well.

Have fun and let us know how it goes.

Keep in contact with one of us, as we may move on to a bar afterwards if we're all up for it ;);).  If ya'll are gonna make it a b-day party for me, I'm gonna make sure I have some fun! lol

Anyway I definitely will be there.  I'll have my SW99, a voice recorder, and maybe even an unbreakable umbrella :D.

I acquired one in order to write a review.  Once I complete my research, I'll be posting the review here on the forum.  If people want to see it, I'll definitely have it with me!

I will be there, it will be my first OC experience (have had CC permit since I got my carry gun).  Now you guys have me wanting to get a nicer holster for OC.

:banghead: must not spend any more money

im only about 40-45 mins. from Cary (that's when i'm riding the speed limit), and i'd certainly like to come out, but my work and school schedule (although today WAS my last day of this semester) is so time consuming that i can hardly commit to anything anymore. 

i wish i had more time for myself..

I'm driving 3 hours one-way, after work, the night before my birthday.  You can make it ;).
