Turns out it was someone letting me know about a change in date for a church meeting. My wife pointed that I should update my PDA for the meeting. She patted my right pocket as I pulled the PDA out of my left pocket.<br /><br />If your PDA is over there, what's in this pocket? she asked. When I whispered it was a gun, she suddenly needed to know how often and for how long I had been carrying.<br /><br />My response????<br /><br />Pretty much all my waking hours for over 14 months.<br /><br />That's right, folks. A little KelTec P3AT in a pocket holster is so invisible that my own wife had no idea that I was carrying for well over a year. She was just stunned that she had no clue that I was packing heat. Suddenly I stopped worrying about people noticing it.GunGeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14217451122521161867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-90474034512520883362009-09-26T12:49:45.995-04:002009-09-26T12:49:45.995-04:00The best I got for you is the wife giving me a hug...The best I got for you is the wife giving me a hug at a dinner party after I said something sweet, and then exclaiming "You aren't as huggable when you wear your shoulder holster!"<br /><br />I'm a carry 100% of the time. Sometimes she'll ask me just to make sure, but I doubt I'd ever surprise her.Weer'd Beardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528978001340070552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-16972509573269303662009-09-23T09:43:13.300-04:002009-09-23T09:43:13.300-04:00I'm lucky.

Usually we will talk about if I need to leave my "accessories" in the car or not. <br /><br />Or if I remembered that we are going to this or that place (going to high school football games, court house, etc).Bob S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15882819735831651314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-78569010972176858342009-09-23T07:29:04.027-04:002009-09-23T07:29:04.027-04:00Well, the lot numbers are 78 and 492 -- the first ...Well, the lot numbers are 78 and 492 -- the first is expected to bring $800-1200, the second, $350-550. Looks like the lowest price I have seen for a vintage 1911. The lower price one has later sights and minor issues, but is still an Ithaca. Just a thought - the Amoskeag people are great to deal with, I will be bidding on a few things.libertymanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13987591250148492879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6867503761315699133.post-82331401731484246162009-09-22T16:48:57.041-04:002009-09-22T16:48:57.041-04:00Oh, my ...
