Being a big guy, 6'7" and 300lbs, I have developed a method for those wanting a hug, I kep my arms parallel with my torso, bending them at the elbows and holding the forearms and hands out in front. This causes everyone to go high for a hug. I staretd doing this when some of my Christian Brothers came up to give me a hug during services. This way nobody's arms or hands get near my concealed weapon.

I was made once when my sons girlfriend, whom I had just met, came up to give me a hug and felt the gun when she wrapped her arms around my waist. She just looked up and said quietly, "my dad, the air marshall, carries there as well".
