Default NICE INEXPENSIVE HOLSTER

For those of you retired, and living on a meager pension like yours truly; this idea for an inexpensive home made holster appeared on another forum. Pretty neat I'm thinkin' .

That's a good idea but then I would have to walk around with only one shoe.

And if the gun fails you can put the fear of la chancla on them.
(For those who don't know that's the Spanish word for flip flop.)

It may work but how are you going to get that smell out of the gun?

Smell? Easy. Hoppies No. 7! Put it on the gun. Put some on like aftershave! The holster shoe will smell good. You will smell good. Don't worry about your wife! Your dog will not mind when you crawl in the doghouse ... as long as you bring potato chips! Sincerely. bruce.

My dog demands jalapeno/cheddar popcorn as the price of admission. you could put some of that coating on the holster. It would kill the smell.

I tried the aftershave route last time I was in Walmart. I quietly opened a bottle and put a little behind each ear. All I got was a bunch of old farts like me in camo following me around the store.

Several years ago I was taking a firearms course and the instructor/rangemaster did that. He was teaching us how to clean the guns with Hoppes #9, said it could be used as aftershave, and proceeded to demonstrate that by applying some behind his ears. He was a Marine during the Korean War. Cool guy.

I have to admit, the idea is clever, BUT would you really get caught wearing that setup? I would go inside the pants in the small of my back first
