Well a recent thread got me to thinking. I’ve had some folks in the past suggest that my carrying of a gun be because I was afraid of something or someone. Friends or family have said, what are you afraid of that you need to carry a gun all the time?
My wife was at a yardsale once, open carrying. She’s a little thing and was carrying a 686. Some lady said what do you have that gun for? You afraid someone’s gonna get ya?
Well, I carry at home and there is no threats here and I’m comfortable, since we live in the country. I carry out of habit more than anything. I feel naked without my gun same as I do without my knife and my pants.
I’m not one that carries a gun out of chore. In fact, I rarely notice my gun even though it’s a large revolver. Once I found a comfy spot and holster combo, It ceased to be a bother. Rather it’s a constant comfort to my mind.
I carry anytime I have clothes on. I don’t wear house clothes, I step into my pants and holster my gun.
This is my take on the matter.
