Are you concealing better?


Recommended Posts

Posted
Okay, it might sound like a silly question but after the latest tragic murders by an evil psycho, and the frenzy of irrational reactionary gun(owner) haters, and also the demonization and bigotery that will only get worse soon against 80+ million gun owners from arrogant, self-rightous, sanctimonious, politically motivated socialist control freaks in the Senate and House and not to forget the White House, are you personally concealing your carry gun better? I carry concealed but I never dress fancy, usually an untucked shirt to hide a pancake type belt holster which sometimes shows a little from the bottom, and shows when I sit or get out of the car, I never cared really that it showed somewhat because I have a HCP. Now, I will admitt that I am making sure it's more concealed just to prevent some hysterical liberal bigot from making a scene if he/she see's me carrying. I have a feeling that confrontations will increase now, instead of a simple dirty look and a sanctimonous mumble, these idiots will want some kind of confrontation in public. We are going to be demonized enough soon and if you tell some gun owner hating idiot to go fornacate with themselves you will be viewed as the bad guy or gal.

I've only just begun to carry so I'm not sure I'm doing a very good job of concealing, in the first pace. I know I print a bit but my wife says she can only see my firearm because she knows it's there.

This has been a terrible week. I feel like I'm arguing with everybody. Like the week before the elections except with the horrible loss of innocent lives. I actually had to tell my mother to stop emailing me all together if she couldn't keep from sending me a gun-control petition.

While I don't disagree with your assessment that some of the gun grabbers will be more confrontational, I still don't give a flying rat fuck. Edited by Chucktshoes

I guess the biggest reason I don't want noisey confrontation is because my mother is 84, had two open heart surgeries and both knees replaced and can't drive outside of Kingston Springs, mainly she wont and you don't want her to drive on a busy highway, so I elected myself to drive her pretty much everywhere she needs or wants to go. Anyway, I wouldn't care much what they think if by myself, but I don't want a scene at Wallyworld or Publix etc. if I'm with my mom shopping, she if anyone doesn't need that. Plus in the past I have had an itchy middle finger, my trigger finger is in perfect control but sometimes that middle dude just likes to pop up on certain occasions when I really don't care to argue with a brick wall or a yapping lap dog. :)

Just wear an earbud and talk into your wristwatch.

Wristwatch must be a bad word here.  Make that a wrist timepiece.

oh dont get me wrong there will be no verbal confrontations with anyone.  its pretty easy to just walk away, or threaten to call the police for them harassing me.  But from what I've found, people scared of guns wont confront you, they are much too scared.  so usually they will just scatter

Me too, but I have to admit, I was a little self conscious this weekend when I was out and about. I have young kids, so when I pick them up my pistol gets exposed sometimes, which normally doesn't bother me, but folks are pretty on edge right now. I don't feel like spooking the herd.

Who cares...  I'm not a threat to anybody who isn't out to cause me harm...  Maybe if they notice more of their neighbors carrying they'll realize it's not so scary.

I have usually carried with a long shirt or sweatshirt covering my normal holster , I now have begun to tuck the shirt and grab a jacket , from the front it prob shows a fair amount but IDGAS anymore.

The bad word filter only sees the letters, not the context.

 

But you can say wrist watch.

 

Some forums you can't use Dick's.

I got that but was just playing along with it.  It didn't take long to figure out what it was actually filtering.  I did a search for Dick's once trying to find their website.  Oops.  As always, OS, The Oracle Of TGO, sets the record straight.  We'd be lost without you.  Or, at least clueless.  ;)
