Because some people think that covered is concealed regardless of how tight the cover is. They know that printing is not against the law, but go further than just stretching the limits in my opinion. One past friend of mine was like this. We both had CHLs before we met and neither of us knew until we met for lunch one day. He was a muscular well built guy and the only thing he had covering his Glock 23 was a loose, but somewhat fitted t-shirt. Remember, I didn't know he even had a CHL, but now figured/hoped that he did. I asked him and he said, yes. He asked what made me ask and thought, really? I told him I could tell he was carrying a Glock 23 or 19 at about 5 o'clock IWB. We weren't good friends then and didn't stay friends long after that anyway. He said no one had ever noticed before. I just can't believe that. Back then I was carrying my G27 and didn't feel the need to say anything to him about it. IMHO, he was not concealed enough and think that if an officer had seen this or one was called he would have been arrested for failure to conceal.Abraham wrote:C-dub,
Why would they ask?

Re: is it ok to admit you are carrying
If a complete stranger asks you if you're carrying, you might be doing something wrong.Abraham wrote:If a complete stranger asks you a personal question - Are you under any obligation to give them an answer...?
No
If such a situation ever arises for me, my response would be to ignore them...

Re: is it ok to admit you are carrying
No. Don't do it. They have no right to know and you have no duty to tell anyone except a LEO. I probably wouldn't even admit to my own sister that I was carrying out in public. She knows, but can't tell and sometimes asks when I'm over at her house. I just give her a funny look and then ask her where she thinks it is. She hasn't gotten it right yet and it's usually in the same place every time.
