"The young woman behind the counter had a streak of purple hair, multiple piercings, a sizable tattoo on her right forearm,...". They got purple hair in Lordsburg now? LOL! Safe travels Dean

That is the sort of experience most open carriers have in most places. People generally do not care or do not notice. Those that do, mostly do nothing. The vast majority of interactions are of friendly interest. I don't often open carry here in Mississippi, but that statement seems to be apropos here too.....so far.

People get acclimated to open carry pretty quickly outside the hard left hives like Ann Arbor.

It’s the effect of Japanese animation.
As animé has been mainstreamed in increasing quantity since the late seventies affectation for impossible hair colors have accompanied it.

I’ve seen OC in multiple locations in NM but never in either Albuquerque or Santa Fe. I think OC in Santa Fe might draw more than a glance from the constabulary.

I’ve found the so-called hip, slightly weird, trendy town of Sedona, AZ is more gun-friendly than the self-proclaimed “cowboy” town of Prescott, AZ. Go figure.

I’m honestly surprised the open carrier wasn’t harassed by the cops. In New Mexico, you cannot legally open carry into establishments that sell alcohol, any alcohol. Most, if not all, gas stations sell alcohol (in NM, distilled spirits, wine, beer, mixes, etc... can all be sold in these places).
