In regards to 'brandishing'. First they need to see it, second they need to call LE. In my opinion people just don't pay attention. They are way too busy talking on the phone and drinking Starbucks coffee. Now if you drop it and slide it 100 feet that's a different story. I see a guy in a suit with a holstered gun on his right hip on a regular basis at a restaurant I frequent about once a week. He takes his jacket off before he sits down for lunch exposing his firearm. He carries a semi auto in a black leather holster with a black dress style belt. No badge visible anywhere. I sat at the table next to him last week. Nobody ever looked at the guy twice. People I work with sat 10 feet from him and didn't even notice the gun. I pointed it out to our Admin and her reaction was: 'Oh, he's probably a cop'. My point: Make sure you have good concealment. Relax. Edit: I am sure it helps if you dress and look like a professional. Last edited by Glock32 : 01-09-2008 at 09:27 AM. |

See... I am at the stage where I can admit to owning and carrying a mouse gun occasionally... however this incident happened 10 years ago and now I am older and wiser... why I looked at one of those kimber ultra cdp II things the other night at a class... ittybitty...kinda cute... 45 acp....and I will admit to lusting after it ... at least a little...Still have the astra and it doesn't have much of a finish... BUT IT IS NOT BECAUSE I CARRIED IT ALOT... REALLY........PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN...

Bottom line.........don't print..dont show your weapon.....period. I can tell you that a CCW can be taken away for any reason, why risk it? It's a privilege, don't test the water, it's ice cold, grasshoppa.
