I’ve been carrying just over three weeks and I’ve done the Wally Walk, among others. Today I went down to the local convenience store carrying my Bersa Thunder .380 in a Blackhawk IWB holster clipped onto my athletic shorts and covered by a one-size-too-big t-shirt. As luck would have it I parked right next to a police car. I walked right past the cops as they were getting their snacks inside. They ended up in line in front of me and were already back in their car when I came out. I walked right past the front of their car carrying a bag of ice in one hand and digging around for my keys with the other, with my gun side toward them. They never saw the .380 under my t-shirt (if they did, they certainly didn’t say anything), so I feel like I just passed the ultimate concealment test!

By the way, today was the first time I’ve carried with athletic shorts. I found that if I tie the drawstring tight enough everything rides just fine without a belt. Obviously that won’t work for everyone or in every situation but I was surprised at how solid it was.
