    Default Printing

    Ran into an old friend at the grocery store this afternoon. He was wearing shorts and a tee shirt and way too obviously carrying. His tee shirt was folded over the inside of his gun and hiked up. As I've heard so often here, no one else noticed. I didn't say anything, mostly because he is the chief of police in a large town out here. Must be nice to be able to not give a crap.

    Yeah it takes someone who knows what they are seeing sometimes to ID a carry print, I often wonder what an LEO would do in my town in that case if they saw this very thing. I cannot imagine there is a precedent to charge someone with a failure to conceal unless it is blatant, but what defines blatant? In Mass, I don't take that chance - I'd rather wear a winter jacket in August and not worry...

    Printing is overrated. When I see someone say "OMG he's printing!!" my IQ drops 2 points. I think I'm negative 247 now.

    I don't worry about it, haven't had any soccer moms faint yet. Worst that could happen is I might lose my Costco membership.

    Rats. I thought this was going to be another one of those 3D printer things. I thought maybe someone was taking orders.

    On this topic, who cares? I think people overthink this way too much.

    Why does everyone care about printing so much? Open carry is legal.

    I never print. It's damn near invisible when I carry. Oh wait, I am not allowed to carry. Carry on men.
