One Step Closer to Carry

[Blaster229]

Ahhh....Very helpful info! I am obviously very new at this so I appreciate that!

Just to say, there's no comfy way to carry. Just levels of discomfort you're willing to put up with.

Should have just posted one to begin with so I don't have to explain that we are dealing with here

They need a roller derby picture.

There is a saying of which to give careful consideration :

Dress Around the Gun

It's a semi free country , and everyone has a degree of making their decisions , and setting their priorities . But a single layer of form fitting clothing is a major factor in the size , accessibility , and comfort of what you carry .

In making the decision to be an Armed Person , your goal isn't necessarily to dress exactly the same as you did before . Your two main parameters are :

1. Not appear obviously Armed.
2. Have an appearance generally acceptable for your situation and circumstances .

These may often have convergence by being either one notch more formal , or one notch more casual .

This is a great excuse to go chothes shopping (which I hate)
I will certainly compromise in order to carry

Or, it's an excuse to stop caring. If you go full Dude from the Big Labowski, you can carry anything. But the bathrobe aesthetic can't take you everywhere.

For some months of the year, I've definitely adapted the wardrobe in directions I wouldn't have if I wasn't carrying. In some cases, I'm willing to adapt down to a pocket gun (an LCP2 in a pocket holster) when I can't get away with anything beyond cargo shorts or the like.

Carrying changes habits in several areas. Dressing just ends up being one of them.

I'm pretty sure that if you were going to get a date from within this audience, it would have happened by now.

Now trying to get that image in my head displaced by something else.

Not about caliber or length of barrel boys...it’s rounds on target

Diligent application beats overwhelming fire power all day long.

Going forward my prices will fluctuate based on pandering. It’ll be a 1:1 ratio.

Would you be willing to trade side boob pics for 9x18 ammo?

I was browsing Greg Ellifritz' Active Response Training site and the Weekend Knowledge Dump for October 30 happened to have a link to this:

https://thewellarmedwoman.com/concealed-carry/concealed-carry-for-women-of-all-body-types/

It's an article published by The Well Armed Woman, with detail on survey responses from 1500 women who carry. (body types, challenges faced, solutions, holsters, tips, etc.)

Wanted to pass it along, as it seems like it might help.
