Dude, putting pants on so you can wear the SmartCarry outside the Speedo is harldy "dressing around the gun."

And FWIW, yes, I did carry my .357 in the SmartCarry over a speedo, under swim trunks once at a rather remote swimming area. (it was due for a through cleaning anyway, so I figured nothing would motivate me to do the job right like taking it for a swim in lake water - 2 years later, I've changed springs and slicked up the trigger, and have yet to find any corrosion)
You aren't going to convince him, man. The way he describes things, he wouldn't even be able to conceal a little NAA .22 with a folding grip, and won't make any changes to accommodate even that.

For posterity, the post he's referencing starts here and goes on for several pages:

Unless you told them you are armed or showed them the weapon, nobody would ever know you had it. If they ever did see it...it would be because you were saving somebodies life or your own and at that point who the heck cares??? Alive and unemployed beats dead and a employee of the month plaque any day of the week in my book.
I don't know about Mr.72, but I was given specific verbal notice that my work buildings are off-limits.

Just a thought.
The LCP is a plastic gun. You're not going to get around the fact that the slide is still going to be metal any way you do it, and that's the issue at hand here... the slide.

Re: problem with gun in the car while at work

Back onto the topic...

Mr.72: how do you carry it? I have the same gun and am in the same situation. I, however, keep mine in an Uncle Mike's pocket holster. It has enough padding to it, that you'll feel warmth, but not the sizzle in your pocket.
