concealed carry in public "rooms"

[dsmitty]

This is a ? mainly for the guys..

When you are in a public place, lets say, walmart for the sake of this board and nature calls your name.

A: Do you do anything different to hold up the old trousers when you #1
B: Do you go into a closed stall to #1
C: When you #2 do you unholster your weapon or leave it hang and set on the ground? If you unholster, what do you do with it?

I can carry on my family farm and around the house with no issues. But being that I will be getting my Permit in the next 6 months, I find myself wondering about this. It may be a weird question, but I feel I need to hear from you all who have faced this.

B: Do you go into a closed stall to #1 For what? It's just like your standing there.
C: When you #2 do you unholster your weapon or leave it hang and set on the ground? If you unholster, what do you do with it? NO! I just keep my pants up around my knees. Then the only person who might see it is the occasional Senator.

I have an article related how to do your business in public. Send me a PM with your email address and I'll send it to you.

This was my fear as well, but 5 years of carry, and it's hardly even a thought.

Anyways:

Sometimes I worm my thingy through the port holes of underwear and pants when I #1. Thus keeping everything in place. However, often my thingy doesn't want to worm through anything and with fear of breaking it. I have no choice but to undo the pants and belt, hold my thingy with one hand, and sort of let my pants ride my hips, and give them some support with the other hand. Not all that hard really. Nobody should be looking, and even if they did, they wouldn't know why I was taking a piss weirdly.

I dont #2 anywhere public. Although when I have gone #2 with my gun in a private, or semi-private place, I have no choice but to draw my gun from the holster, and place it on the sink counter. Mainly this is for putting the pants back on, as the gun gives too much weight for it, and there is the risk it falls out. One most always be trigger finger aware in this case, and me having a 1911 perhaps makes the event less risky.

+1 for Wired Dont really know what else to add.

Hilarious thread.

for +1 for MagicPie for #1 but for #2 i just unholster and hold my xd or rarely ill set it on the toilet paper dispenser( rarely because i fear someone will knock into the stall and it will fall and i dont live in a state where many people know that citizens can carry). You will start to appreciate the stalls that go much lower to the floor.

well i open carry but ran into this issue at wall mart the other day. using a urinal isnt much of an issue for me, gun dosnt get in the way at all. but had to drop the ol kids off at the pool yesterday at wally world. i didnt want my gun lying on the ground while i did my buisiness so i unholstered and set it on top of the toilet paper rack. works for me

"tactical crapping"! LOL, that is a funny way of putting it! I'd like to read the thread, it has got to be hysterical.
