Nobody noticed. Yay!
I was planning on meeting a friend for lunch (hot wings! No need to ask me twice) at a local restaurant. Wasn't sure if I was going to carry or not, but then he texted me a couple hours before asking if I wanted to take a pistol introduction course at a local gun shop with him (Center Target, Post Falls).
I took that very same course last summer and when I told my friend then how much fun I had shooting for the very first time, he was ambivalent, saying he had no interest in guns and didn't really care about them. I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't share my new hobby with my oldest friend. Well things have changed, I guess.
So today I decided to carry my LW Commander. I put it in my cheap IWB holster (it's cheap but it works great) and a long flannel shirt un-tucked and headed out.
Had a great lunch talking about guns, what the pistol course was like and how I really enjoy shooting, and how eventually concealed carry is the way to go (I didn't tell him I was carrying, that's what the "concealed" part is all about). As we were getting ready to leave, I suggested if he ever wanted to try out my guns he should come over to our place and try my range. He said "how about now?"
We shot a couple hundred rounds of .45 and my wife let him try her .380. He's hooked!
So now I finally have someone to talk guns with (my wife is greatly relieved). We both think concealed carry is a smart strategy in today's nutty world.
Also, I'm crazy with anticipation waiting for my new Colt Defender to arrive, which will be my EDC. Hopefully it comes in tomorrow.
