Orange and red are bad. Camo gives the media a stereotype to focus on.

Orange is the anti groups chosen color, avoid at all costs.

Just to confirm, everything is kosher to carry at this event? Sounds like it, I just want to know the full situation before I show up.

You're free to do as you choose but I'd strongly suggest that we let the photo opportunities from the rally be about numbers in attendance and the normalcy of the group. Openly carrying any type of weapon will just feed the negative stereotypes. Please show up like you'd show up in church. Image is a major part of the long game.

Sounds good, thank you. I will not be open carrying.

I wore jeans, cowboy boots and a Jeep t-shirt to church last weekend, am I good? ;)

Not typical, forgot to pack a collared shirt.

I was considering my LaRue Dillo dust shirt (orange) but I guess I won’t. No idea where my GOCRA shirt is.

Just don't strap an AR to your back, please.

Why use an AR when a Barrett 50 will do?

All joking aside, I don’t need anybody seeing anything I carry - ever.

I really wish people who feel the need to carry long guns in public to make a point would at least use a scabbard:

Scabbards are cumbersome.

Which is why my next build is probably going to be a takedown.
