OMG, you guys have me laughing my butt off over here.
ROFL!!!
g23, first, if it were me, I wouldnt have corrected him/her and just kept going. You didnt waive a badge and say you were a cop, and while it's preferred to not show your weapon at all, I share info on an as needed basis, and she didnt need to know.
Also, if you're carrying with a new holster, in a new outfit, whatever.... imagine every possible position you might find yourself in where you will still be attempting to conceal your weapon. This includes bending over, sitting down, squatting down (if your looking at something on the bottom shelf at Lowes), etc. Ask a friend or family member to look and see if your printing or if you've just been exposed. I've tried on I dont know how many outfits and asked my husband if he can tell Im carrying, etc. Of course, my firearm has a name -- Betty. If I question whether or not "Betty" is showing, I simply ask. Have you seen Betty? and he'll let me know if something is awry.
Practice carrying around your house before you start carrying outside your home just to get comfortable with everything.
Good luck. And bes ure your other little friend doesnt cross the line of sight of your OTHER little friend. LOL
Moosie
