Re: what about....

For example, when you leave your office for whatever reason?

If you lock it up at the office, then it's not very accessible.

I have considered using the daytimer variants for one of my Keltecs.
I appreciate the concern, and yes, there is a very sturdy lock on my lower desk drawer and cabinets which will fit the entire bag nicely. I don't leave it just laying about. Even when I step away from my desk to swing around to the other row, the bag is tucked behind my monitor and out of view. And it is never left in the bag if I need to go anywhere after work. We have already had an employee have a smash-n-grab done on his car for his laptop bag. Besides, it wouldn't do me much good if it was in my bag, and I was inside some store, would it. :grin:

I have personally started to carry at work in my laptop bag. There is a great open pocket that my IWB holster fits into perfectly. Even the belt clip can grip the lip of the pocket. It keeps it completely secure, and the trigger is covered and safe.

Now, I don't have to worry about being made, since it will NEVER be seen or even brushed against since it is in a bag. And yet, it is still readily accessible and I can convert to waist carry once I'm within the confines of my pickup, if I have to go anywhere after work.
