Once in a while, I get a hankering to carry my P-38, but then I realize there are no ezzential verkers to shoot.

Lightning?
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Of course.  Can't trust a plane that doesn't have propellers.

I have no Reich handguns to carry :weep:

My CCW (when I actually get a license) is a Polish P64.  I guess I can pretend I'm Marti.

No need for one to defend the house from the cops.

It's one of those things on my to do list, just not a huge priority at the moment.  Plus, actually carrying concealed is annoying and uncomfortable and I would rarely make use of it.  And every time I get pulled over the cops would assume I'm packing and would act extra weird.

I'll probably do it eventually.

Annoying and uncomfortable? And why do you keep getting pulled over?

Having a weapon strapped anywhere to me is uncomfortable. 

QuoteAnd why do you keep getting pulled over?

I don't, come to think of it.  But with my luck as soon as I get my CCW I'd start getting pulled over all the time.

Oh, and as to the "annoying" part, having to go back to your car and stow your weapon every time you stop at a "no carry" business or wherever would be super-annoying.

Get a better holster, I still don't see the problem with getting pulled over. If you don't think it is worth carrying for your specific situation, then don't.

Ahh, that would depend on state law.

Either get a small pistol like a Bersa Thunder OR a nice carry holster, like this one:



Obviously there's extra weight when you carry which is weird but I don't find this holster uncomfortable at all.  I carry a Beretta PX4 Storm in it.

Where exactly do you wear that monstrous thing? :hmm:

Granted you live in the frigid north so maybe you just naturally wear more clothes to stash it in.

 :lol: Frigid north?  We got like five inches of snow all winter this year and it's been hot as fuck since late March/early April, basically.

It's an IWB holster.  Wear it on my left hip.
