Congratulations! I had my first FULL day of carry yesterday. Holster the Walther in the morning, and LEAVE the sucker there all day long. No need to constantly store it in the glovebox before venturing out in public (I might have had a psychotic break and slaughtered everyone around me :biggrinjester: ).

Even worked out Fri & Sat mornings @ the neighborhood gym w. a SmartCarry. Think I've figured out an arrangement for the PPS to, um, co-exist down there.
I'll quit carrying a gun when they make murder and armed robbery illegal

I've been off the board for a day or two and USA1 gets his CHL? Oh my goodness the queen is dead. Congrats, man! And great documentation of your very first Wally Walk. Glad to have you on our side. :tiphat:

Congratulations on the "Wally Walk" USA.......... Mine wasn't quite that interesting, I just did the normal Saturday morning shopping with my "Sig 239" 9mm tucked in with a Galco IWB holster. I went by my lonesome and had no one to take pictures....... But I loved yours!!!!

its true ...she has always wanted hers .
since she comes from a family of 6 kids , 3 have CHLs and three dont , its time to push her to get hers .

funny little thing...just before leaving for the Wally Walk ,
we were standing in the garage waiting for the kids to come out .
when some freaky lookin guy started walking up the driveway .
it seems he was selling something in the neighborhood .

well, before he went into his long sales speech , i promptly let him know that i wasn't buying anything .
while hes walking away , i told my wife .. " its OK , im armed " :evil2:

she just said "i knew you would be "
she understands .... ;-)

Best. Wally Walk. Ever.

Congrats, USA1! Nicely done.

Mrs. Chip got her plastic in July but just isn't interested in carrying..... go figure.

USA1 great Wally Walk! Very nice!

The next idiot that tries to rob a walmart or shoot it up in Texas is going to get dropped like an iraqi soldier standing in front of an Apache helicopter.
