restrictive carry parameters and complaining Login/Join

guns are too heavy , light guns hurt my hands when I practice, I have to look a certain way ,
the weather won't comply, this style of holster is too restrictive , that style is too hot, this holster is too expensive, that holster won't stay where I put it, I am too skinny , I am too fat, Roll Eyes


Man that crap gets old.Cheese and rice !
its a tool , the gun is a tool, and if you value your person, a tool holder is required.
if you value your person , you can work around some amount of fashion, discomfort or aesthetics.

there needs to be some amount of "Suck it the hell up"

either that or get a sherpa with a llama and stop the complaining to carry the stuff.

or hire a body guard , something !

some of these people act like they are going through basic training.

just face the fact that you have to take personal protection with a grain of salt.

I tell them they need to shave their pitts, get their eyebrows plucked and get their bikini area waxed.

Lately, I say that to man bun wearers.

It needs to be chambered in 50AE, but with no recoil.and small and lightweight, but feel like a full size pistol.
Oh, and I want to carry it in my pocket w/o a holster. But I want an IWB holster but I don't want to wear a belt...

A quote from my old man, a been there, done that WWII Vet and man of few words, on the occasion of my leaving home for military service:
"Son, always carry the biggest gun that you can shoot well"!
This statement pops into my head whenever I hear all the poop about CCW "styles".

I don't see much of that style here. Have seen it on TV though. I have never seen a sign for Bernie Sanders either. Interesting

I don't want to get 7 holsters to accommodate my tuxedo suit, my gym cloths, my parkour outfit and skinny jeans !

and don't even get me started on magazines,
what if I "print", I don't want to print, printing is tacky

I usually tell those people they probably shouldn't carry and practice more.

Yep, my wife could be one of those.
I bought her a holster. Will not wear it. I got her a CC purse(uses sometimes), I bought her one of those tight undershirt/holsters, never tried it on and she said she wanted it.
She took her CC class and the instructor asked how each person planned to carry. She said purse and the guy went on the 10 minute tirade about how bad that was.
It is still the only way she carries and she just bought a new purse now.

The old cliché is that "carrying a handgun should be comforting, not comfortable". And there's quite a bit of truth to that.

Granted, some holster types will work better and be more comfortable for a certain person than others, and it's up to the individual to figure out what works best for them. But there's no setup that will be exactly as comfortable as carrying nothing at all, so bendable's exactly right... To one extent or another, you're going to have to learn to just suck it up, buttercup.
