first time carry in public

[Guest proudsuthrner]

i have been carrying all day now that i got my new holster. i have to admit that i was kinda nervous for some odd reason. i guess its because i havent done it before. you cant really tell that i am wearing it until i sit down or bend over slightly and my shirt lifts up over the gun.. which happened at wally world earlier. i just have to get used to the fact that i'm not breaking the law since i do have a HCP.

i just felt like sharing my first time experience

I'll méet you at the Dickson Walmart in a few minutes. I'll show you where to go and what you have to do. You have to go buy a box of ammo, and eat some chicken fingers from the deli.

Then you're official!

Congrats! Be aware, be smart.

[Guest proudsuthrner]

haha i almost did buy some ammo. they had several boxes of Federal 9mm. but i passed on that for now which i think i'll regret later on when i cant find any.

Did you notice any 45's? I'm going over there in a few minutes.

[Guest proudsuthrner]

yea i pretty sure that i saw some 45's. but be careful when you go in there.. its like a maze now lol

darn! last time i asked about 9 mm in Dickson the clerk looked at me as if i was from the moon:rolleyes:

[Guest proudsuthrner]

now they're in a locked display case. you can see what they have and how much of it they have.

Like one of the guys in Guns and Leather, said, most people don't notice anyway - his analogy was someone could perch on top of one of their security monitor TVs and most folks wouldn't notice.

But...doesn't having your weapon close make you feel good?

I have had similar experiences carrying... (I wear mine concealed at 1 o'clock) when reaching up to get something off the top of the shelf. At Walmart. All I can do is pull my shirt back down over it and say to myself "oops." No one's said anything so far, and I honestly don't think someone is going to start screaming "She's got a gun!!"

[Guest proudsuthrner]

yea i wouldnt think they'd scream that lol. if anything, probably whisper it to whoever they are with.
