Well today at the North main Wal-Mart in High Point. I had an Interesting encounter. It started kinda bad, But ended really good.

It was oddly packed for a monday night, I was off the the side a little bit looking at toothpaste a girl tried to squeeze between me and the shelf She scraped her arm on my XDm 40 rear sight. She grabed her arm and saw that it was bleeding a little bit she looked over at what she scraped her arm on, She said " Wow, when i think of a firearm injury this is not what i think of." I giggled a little bit and asked if she was okay.

But any who she asked the normal are you a cop, is it loaded. She was truly interested in open carry, I told her about the web site and some others.

My 1911 has target sights on it, and the rear sights stick out a good bit. A friend of mine bumped her elbow into it once and left a pretty good mark on her arm. Those edges are sharper than they look.
