Don’t burry your weapons under clothing
I think there is a point that people really can get carried away with the CCW point of view. There were a few wacky incidences that occured over the years where a gun owner got himself or herself into a gray area and really invited trouble. The whole open carry debate can be a powder keg amonst many on our side of the aisle, but not invited problems is something we should be trained to think about. Don’t put yourself in a situation where the method in which you are carrying is going to make you stand out. For example, we have a lot of customers that carry full size autos that want to carry their firearms in jackets and they always want to know which vests or jacket it will work in. If this is what you want to do, go ahead and do it, but if you are standing out on a football field at your kids football game and you are the only person wearing a jacket and it’s 70F out, you are going to be out of place, and may invite problems from a smart ass anti-gun person that knows you may be in a grey area by carrying a gun on school property.
I have stated several times that some of the toughest people I know don’t always carry firearms, and many of the best trained shooters are carrying j-frame revolvers. This has slightly changed in the last few years since there are some reliable .380 pocket guns coming into the market. I really don’t have much experience with these, but since many of them are new, it’s sometimes a good idea to just sit back and see how well the products hold up and what their reputations are. There is not always a real need to get too exotic with gun holsters. A good pocket carry gun could have 6 or 7 rounds of .380 or 9mm and depending on your body size, you may even be able to get a .40 S&W gun in there. Pocket carry is probable one of the most comfortable ways to conceal a firearm and won’t restrict much of your movement.
