If you're only getting one (1) handgun, there are secure gun safes the size of shoe boxes.  Perfect fit under the bed for the modern man-about-town.  Hell, I have one that fits in my nightstand drawer.

I have them, I didn't say I use them.  The shoulder holster is slung over the back of the chair, in proper noir fashion.

It's getting cooler.  And that means the layered look.

So I've heard the guy was rich, which puts a different spin on it.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

I have found it really disgusting that a lot of people in the US are coming up with defenses, immediately after a single guy mows down 600, on why there is no problem with the gun culture in their country. It is sickening.

I know.  I see people complaining that "the gun will be blamed".  Poor gun.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
