    Default Were you the one?

    So, I was having coffee with a buddy at the Starbucks in Highlands Ranch this past Sunday and we both observed a white male come in order, walk past us to go to the bathroom and back and he had an obvious bulge on his right hip in the shape of a handgun. He was wearing a simple long sleeved shirt that was too tight and imprinted pretty badly. He had a folding knife in his right front pocket.

    My buddy and I couldn't decide if he was newbie cop or a CCW holder or possibly someone without a CCW of some sort. We couldn't decide if we wanted to contact him to inform him of his faux paus, but we elected to ignore it and go on with our conversation.

    Was that anyone from here? If so, GET LARGER SHIRTS!

    Would you let someone know if they were being so obvious?

    Nope, not me but I believe you would be 100% correct by just ignoring it.

    You should've told him. It would freak him out into being more careful.

    Usually it is people that didnt spend the money for a good CCW class that covered CCW, or they just dont care (me sometimes) I have had people aproach me asking questions about my work that obviously didnt know how to carry. Maybe it was someone here from Greeley? A year or so ago a guy comes up to me in a restaurant parking lot talking to me, from a bout 30 feet away I see he has an XD in an IWB right side with nothing but an unbuttened shirt covering it and as he walked the gun stuck out. Normally it might have alarmed me but I was in a hurry to get a breakfast burrito, and he was a smaller framed older guy.

    I carry open so much, that I could care less if I print.

    It wasn't open and it would fall under concealed carry, which would have been a violation of law if he did not have a CCW. Not the best thing to do in front of two cops.

    I try to avoid, but I usually don't worry too much if I do imprint a little

    If he did have a CCW, it wouldn't violate any law that he was carrying so obviously? For some reason I thought it did.

    Edit: I think I've just been super anal about imprinting.
