Congrats and be safe. Just a couple words of advice if I may. Carry everywhere you can and anytime you can legally. Make it a habit. Don’t ever think
oh it’s only a 5 minute run to the store or taking out the trash nothing bad will happen. 95% of the time that’s right but what about the other 5? I carry all the time so I at least have a chance. Remember carrying a gun does not mean that you will survive. Carrying a gun gives you the opportunity to survive. The fact of the matter is, when God calls you home then that’s it. Be responsible. Don’t fiddle with the gun in public. It’s goin to feel like everyone is watching you and you will think that they can see your gun. Most people will never pay you any mind. Those that notice usually are other people like us. You have to change your lifestyle now. You must learn to dress around the gun. Get a good belt and good holster. Don’t waste money on uncle mikes specials or black hawk serpas. Milt sparks for leather, vedder holsters, or bravo concealment for kydex. I’m sure you will end up with a holster box of shame like the rest of us but maybe you won’t have to have as many
. Choose your carry piece carefully and practice then practice and then practice some more. If you can afford it take some advanced training. You owe it to yourself to be safe, your family, and friends. Always follow the firearm safety rules. Don’t listen to what others say about what gun you should carry. If you want to use a .32 auto hey that’s on you. If you can shoot it well and it’s reliable then who are we to judge. I’m glad your joined the forum. You will find a wealth of knowledge here. These fine people know their stuff and are happy to share. I have yet to find a forum as clean and well ran. Enjoy and have fun!
