All of us recognise the problems inherent in getting your pants down around your ankles with a holstered gun. Cop friends of mine tell me they take off their duty belt and hang it on the hook in the stall, if there is one.

A duty belt would be hard to conceal, so I decided to take my carry gun, clear it - setting the mag on top of the toilet tissue holder with my two spare mags and putting the extra round in my pocket, and then I hung my gun from the clothes hook by the trigger guard, action locked open.

Just about the time I sat down, the door on the next stall opened and someone entered, and the shift in geometry was just enough to loosen the latch on my stall to the extent that the door swung open.

So there I was, in progress as it were, trying to reach the door and swing it back closed, with my faithful .45 dangling from the clothes hook on the door.

Since then I am much more careful about finding a way to stow my gun when biological necessities dictate.

OTOH, may I was the one who was making the distinct sound of a round being chambered when I was done. :lol:
