Re: Do I have to hide my handgun while changing/dressing in

And yeah, I'd just leave it in the car or one of the 14 other less problematic options, myself.

It wasn't his original question, but it was his follow up question:

So now I guess my question is.....doing my best to hide it.....what if someone still manages to catch a glimpse? Obviously, that is not intentional.

Re: Do I have to hide my handgun while changing/dressing in

Good discussion. I think I disagree with one aspect though. If the OP removes the firearm under a towel or whatever and does his best to hide it and place in the locker, hiding all the way, and someone somehow gets a little glimpse under the corner of a towel or whatever, to me, that is unintentional and is the same as the guy with the coat that rode up. He was trying to conceal it, just was unsuccessful. Conceal doesn't necessarily mean ON your body, right? Hence purse carry, etc. So, he was moving it from one concealed position to another concealed position under concealment, or at least attempted concealment.

Note: all the other issues are still there, such as taking the ride anyway, lawyer fees, someone seeing you transfer it and then breaking into your locker, etc. Just saying a failed transfer under cover would to me seem to be an unintentional lack of concealment. Thoughts?
