[QUOTE="p238shooter, post: 3337695, member: 24583"] I will jump in on the "off topic" holster carry discussion with my opinion. I carry IWB t-shirt draped over only when I have pants on, every day. I lay my 1911 on the floor by my bed pointed away from me along with others around the house in "condition 1" in other places. I Guess I have the same "stigma" others have here. I do not care for any barrel with a shell loaded pointed at me whether it is mine or anyone else's any time. Does not matter if it is being carried, laying on a table, shotgun propped against the door frame with the safety on, laying across the top of my freezer in the garrage, walking in front of a tank, or anywhere else where I could be looking down any barrel. Not my own firearms with me or on the other side of the wall, much less someone else's anywhere. My vote is keep your barrel pointed some other direction away from where it (not you, it, the firearm) might shoot, no matter what. Yep, out eating holding your fork having a heart attack and on the way down to put your face in the plate your fork grabs the trigger. Even that is something I would not want to expose others to. JMO (Yep, pretty lame example but all I could think of at the moment) You got fishing line attached to that trigger you are not touching? Nope, I do not want it pointed at me. Period. [/QUOTE]
