Lonewolf's Wally Walk

#1

Post by lonewolf »

The boys wanted to go play tennis, and the wife said, "Why not go to Walmart and get the Wally Walk done at the same time?"

Hmmmmmmm-----"OK"

Before we left, I asked if she could spot the gun...she said I had a noticeable bulge on my right side that looked like a swollen love handle. I said "That's good, because I am wearing my gun crossdraw on my left side, and what you see on my right side really is a love handle....." She almost fell over laughing....Perhaps its time to hit the gym......

Please excuse the photo quality, it won't win any awards, but the boys had fun taking them. They thought it was a blast, so to speak. Giggling the whole time we were in the store....

Do you think anyone noticed me in the shirt? I was trying to be low-profile. Of course, with a profile like mine, that's not easy......

You had all that concealed on your Wally Walk? That is a special shirt! ;-)

Just the Beretta, C-dub......Just the Beretta. :shock:

The little revolver is one my father gave me. Colt Police Positive Special from 1962. Shoots .38 S&W rounds. Has the RHKP and armory slot number on the frame behind the grip from its days with the Royal Hong Kong Police force. It has some holster wear (quite a bit, actually,) but is still tight. The ammo is expensive, though. The Brits bought a huge number of them for the Hong Kong police back in the day. How it came to my Dad when he was in Little Rock, Arkansas I really don't know. He bought it from a retired Little Rock LEO.

I could have worn my bright yellow T-shirt with the Sponge Bob face on it, with my Jughead (from the Archie comics) beanie, but my boys said they wouldn't be seen in public with me dressed like that.......

Fantastic Lonewolf !! You pass with flying colors! :clapping: :thumbs2:

I love the commentary and the pics. The only pic you left out was the raising of your shirt to show us where it actually was. I couldn't find it anywhere, so you're good to go.

My only other comment is where did you get that tiger stripes cammy psychedelic t-shirt? I WANT ONE !

All guns have at least two safeties. One's digital, one's cognitive. In other words - keep the digit off the trigger until ready to fire, and THINK. Some guns also have mechanical safeties on top of those. But if the first two don't work, the mechanical ones aren't guaranteed. - me

:smilelol5: LOL! You even had my 13 y/o laughing! :thumbs2:

Nice WW. Couldn't see the Beretta (or the shotgun :shock: )! I can see that you have been trained in cover and concealment. Your shirt made you blend right in to the crowd! Just kidding, I like the shirt!

My apologies for not revealing the concealment at the end. I can assure you it was crossdraw at just about 9 o'clock. Since I haven't yet invested in good leather, it was tucked into my Blackhawk size 3 IWB nylon thingy. Spare magazine in the front left pocket. I don't put the spare mag in the cargo pocket because it has velcro that holds it closed and will take too much time to get into if I need it.

Many thanks to all who have checked out the post! My boys had a good time as well. :tiphat: :cheers2: :patriot: :txflag:

Nope.... nada.
I'm getting text only... not even image placeholders. I even double-checked my settings, and I'm signed in properly. :???:
