Last time I wore suspenders all the girls thought I looked like Agent 007 James Bond and girls flocked all around me .... wait no that was a long time ago ...
last time I wore suspenders I was wearing waders to fish and the fish flocked all around me ...

Yeah, that's it.
Wader suspenders.

The first rifle I bought by myself, a .22 came from Montgomery Ward
I was 18
While buying the rifle the salesman asked, "Do you want ammo?" I said no, I'll get it later ... I went back and a different sales guy said "We can't sell you .22 ammo, you might use it in a pistol ... you shouldda bought it with the rifle you got earlier.

I had to take an "adult over 21" to get the ammo I shouldda got earlier "with the rifle"

I noticed last week that the Ace hardware store near here has some ammo .. I'll have to compare prices to the True Value hardware (Ace doesn't have as big a selection) Up here in Deer country/hill country/central TX, even muffler shops sell guns/have FFLs (Down the street from the Sears Catalog Store) Bowles Custom Muffler, Marble Falls, TX/Bowles Guns in Marble Falls .... across the street from .... WalMart ... Took me a while to get used to it after Houston, where "gun stores" said "gun store" in the name ... I'm learning how to find stuff, just gotta ask around ... (Of course for fishing supplies, rods/reels/lurse/tackle...you go to the Highlander Restaurant in Burnet, and get the buffet and shop for fishing stuff).... whodathunkit

I remained calm and enjoyed the conversation resisting the urge to check myself. We had quite the nice conversation but I was curious why she started it not thinking I was printing. She just cheerfully said that I looked like someone with experience! Oooof!

BTW, as I was walking out I did check myself and I definitely was not printing.

On another occasion, back around the turn of the century I had to make a semi-emergency run to the grocery store. It was cold and I was in a hurry so I dropped the Model 36 in my breast pocket of my coat. I was standing in line behind a mom with her 3 year old looking back at me. He points and says, "Gun." I play ignorant and ask, "What?" He says it again while mom and everyone else is oblivious. I feign looking around for what he sees and there it is, a cap gun in a blister pack right next to me.

Just remembered years ago walking into a Sears and the cashier yelling out loud enough for everyone to hear "Hey, Me and my husband saw you at the gun show last weekend.... what did you buy?, We bought ...."

Suddenly there was a store full of people looking at her, at me at her at me ... (up in our neck of the woods they were all wanting to see what we bought, not concerned if we were armed, I assume they were all armed though, after all, we were all at Sears, and a Wal-mart was near by ...)

lol great story thanks for sharing

I'd do the answer a question with a question thing before saying it wasn't ... like "why do you ask?"

BECAUSE

I need more details like ...

was she new to the area and ...

wanted someone to go shooting with?

OR

looking to date someone who was either a cop or CHL and hadn't met either yet ... being new to the area?

(I've known several girls who ONLY date/marry guys in 1)Navy ... 2) Law Enforcement
