So as many of you know I don't OC but strongly support those who do. As some of you also know, the proven legality of OC has allowed me to comfortably carry larger firearms that I shoot better without the worry about exposure.
So last night we decided to do some high brow shopping for couches at Bob's Discount Furniture. I was in the family truckster wagon with 2 kids out at night. This represents about the highest risk I'll encounter in my exciting life as a doting suburban dad. Also, just for the hell of it I decided to bring out the big iron. So out came the Nighthawk Custom Lightweight Talon II Bobtail. Its such a nice gun, and I shoot it well, it deserves not to spend its life in a safe.
As I put it into an OWB paddle holster on our way out the door, my wife said "I can see your gun". SO?? I replied.
My point is that 2 years ago I'd have never carried a gun that I intentionally knew I couldn't comfortably and effectively conceal. In fact I bought this gun just because of my new "casual carry" routine.
So thanks again to all of you fighting the fight. My kids are better protected than they'd be if I was carrying a mousegun, and I get to spend frivolously on hand made works of art I can carry on my hip.
