Kind of off the wall but just one of those things that you do and then think back and go, Hmmmmmmmm.
I carry IWB and bought a new pair of jeans. I did not even realize that the metal stud that they use going through by the front pocket (in some brands, not all) was rubbing on my gun all day. Took it off at bedtime to see a big old scratch on it down on the side by the front sight. Well, not a scratch but more of the stud just rubbing up on it and taking off the blueing.
Now I have to find a fix for the gun to perty it up again. I sewed some thicker cloth over the jean stud so it wont happen again.
Lesson learned. New jeans + IWB Carry = check for metal pieces inside. LOL I can say I totally didn't even think about that happening and doubt it will ever happen again.
