After 48 hours and 104 replies between this forum and the other one I posted the question on, I think the general concensus is that the fanny pack, vest, Hawaiian shirt myth is BUSTED !!
Most people seemed to think that the vast majority of people "making" those of us who carry in these manners are fellow members of the ever growing elite segment of society known as CHL holders.
Thanks for the replies.

Fact or Urban (CCW) Legend ?
I posted this on another forum and got a lot of interesting and rapid responses, so thought I'd post it here for a more local set of opinions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OK, I just gotta ask.
I keep reading posts on this and other forums that certain methods of CC "Scream Gun!"
Probably at the top of the list are fanny packs, followed in no special order by:
vests,
Hawaiian shirts or other patterned shirts worn unbuttoned over a t-shirt or buttoned but untucked, with or without a t-shirt
"daytimer" type cases
and a maybe few others that escape my memory right now.
My question is: Have you personally, or do you actually know anyone personally, who has ever been "made" or actually ID'ed when carrying using any of these methods? (Simply seeing a fanny pack ain't good enuf - sorry -- I carry my digital camera or my camcorder in fanny pack when I take one of them along - not my gun.)
Or, do we forum readers/posters just "know" these methods "scream gun" and thus have created our own version of an Urban Legend?
