I disagree 100%. If that was the case we would have to assume 90% of the tourists, bikers and hikers in this town are armed.A gun fanny pack screams GUN and you are made by anyone who has ever seen one.
You might as well wear a sign or open carry if you use a "gun" fanny pack.

Not sure what type you have seen, but the ones from Glaco are indistinguishable from the standard leather fanny packs you get from biking suppliers. You are right about the shorts thing. If I am in gym clothes it is a fanny pack or nothing with regards to being able to carry.Disagree is fine, but to me a GUN fanny pack has a BIG honkin' section in the back that screams GUN.
That's why I wear the same type of fanny pack as those bikers, hikers.
It works for me, and that's the way I carry.
Of course I'm never discrete, and just put the gun up on the counter if I can't find what I'm digging around for
Someone asked me once about my "sissy sack" and I answered "were else can I carry my gun when I'm wearing shorts?"
And in my first post I said, "mostly in a hot climate area...not here in the Northwest."
just sayin'

FYI, store clerks are trained that fanny packs are a major indicator of shoplifting. You might be mistaking someone thinking you are stealing a beer or some candy as someone thinking you have a gun.I don't wear anything leather because it absorbs sweat and stinks, ie watch band.
I HAD an expensive GUN fanny pack and wore it empty to test it out.
Most store clerks stared at it and had a police officer, in a store, stare at it the whole time I was in his sight.
I actually made small talk with him, but his eyes never left that fanny pack or my hands.
I never carried with it and gave it to a friend.
YMMV

The color of a weapon gives no advantage to its accuracy or durability. However color does effect concealability for long guns. In nature there is no true black, so firearms such as the AR that are all black tend to stand out in all environments. If you truly want to hide yourself in your environment, ie camouflage, then you need to camo you firearm to match your surroundings.
When I was buying my revolver I narrowed it down to a silver S&W and a black S&W. The guy at the shop was saying he would prefer the silver as it's more of a deterrent to a BG. I don't ever plan on using a firearm as a deterrent, it's a self defense tool and you won't be seeing it unless I'll be using it to defend my life or the life of a loved one.
On the other hand, if you had the chrome plated, you would always have a mirror with you...
