If you don't look like Cheech and Chong or have a large bag of Frito's how would they know?

This correct. And while the feds were first resistant to the medical marijuana law, they are now backing off "legal" users. As for those states/cities that have made possession of a certain threshold of marijuana legal, there is no such exemption in federal law. Try emptying your pockets of a bag of weed in the bowl at the Denver airport or the local federal building and see what happens. . . .

It might be too late but you should have applied to have that conviction expunged, then you can legally answer no to the have you ever been convicted of a crime.
As far as open carry, I wonder where the line is drawn between open and concealed. I am thinking a small handgun worn own, if your shirt is out is that concealed. So the question I have is a tucked in shirt the difference between open and ccw?

In Nevada the definition of carrying openly is, visible from three sides. So, if the front of your shirt/jacket is open, and the gun is visible from the front, but not from the back, that would be concealed by the letter of the law.

I'm sure other states have similar definitions.
