I've got to wonder was this a 1911?

Was it a springer with the grip safety?

Was he new to CC?

What type of holster?

What location? Was it a IWB that you poke down the front of your pants (AIWB??? maybe???)

Who to hell ever decided sticking a gun down your pants in the front was a great idea???

Was he poking, pulling, adjusting trying to get the stupid thing in a position that felt a little less like you had a chunk of steel stuffed in his pants?

I always carry OWB, or pocket carry my LCP in a pocket holster. I refuse to CC inside my pants....I have to bend, sit and other stuff and like to do that in comfort with pants that fit me. Call me kookie...LOL

From a conceal carry standpoint there's much we can learn from this incident if we read, and discuss it.
