Title: The Met in Philadelphia
Post by: oldgraygeek on January 11, 2019, 11:12:57 PM

My wife and I went to see John Oliver on New Year's Eve. (Hey, you knew we were Commies, right)?
They have metal detectors at every door. I even had to go back and put my Swiss Army knife in the car.

Here's the funniest part, though: they pass womens' purses through outside the metal detectors, taking a quick poke around inside them with a clear plastic rod. My wife could have carried her revolver in the side pocket, and nobody would have known...

Maybe the ticket is to go with something slimmer, and then transfer it to a holster.   Perhaps slim enough to fit into an internal pocket without bulging.
