When nature calls and your carrying

Take a length of paracord long enough to make a loop that comfortably goes over yoour head. Pass it through the trigger guard and then back through itself so the gun is now hanging by it. Pass the loop over your head and the gun is now hanging from your neck. When not in use in the stall the cord is small enough to be easily carried in your pocket. This is what I have done for years with my three inch model 60.
 
Let's say your at your favorite store. Pick anyone you like.
Then it happens! Oops gotta poop!
As we all know, those stalls ain't quite low enough to hide your feet. And with those Levi's down low, what happens to that 1911 in your deep conceal holster or paddle holster? What happens if your short term neighbor spots it down under?
How would you react?

Tomorrow morning when you wake up take about ½ a table spoon of ground flax seed in 8 oz of milk. Do this every day for about a week and you will find that you become very regular. Now start adjusting the time you take the flax seed until your "regularity" always occurs at home.

Problem solved ( and it's good for you) :D

So thats my problem, not enough flax seed oil!:eek:

Leave the gun in the holster and pull the elastic band of your underwear up over the gun when you drop your britches.
That keeps it in place and conceals it at the same time.

Iggy, is this the start of the need to color coordinate one's undies with either your weapon or holster?
In farm country, a !farmers tan! definitely works with basic whities and nickle! ;)
And overalls offer many pockets at various heights! :)
 
Unzip, sit down, rebuckle belt just below knees, and keep legs far enough apart to keep pistol from dropping to the floor. This is not rocket science, guys! I carry AIWB and my holstered pistol always stays on my belt.

I learned this trick from Kathy Jackson's Cornered Cat book (CCW for women).
 
If I am out and about, I will try and find a "Family" bathroom.
They are usually single bathrooms for parents to take kids.
They usually have a changing table and a sink in there.
If I can't find a "Family" bathroom, I will look for a handicap stall.
They sometimes have a changing table and a sink.
Some even have a toilet with a tank.
Just make sure to remember to take your gun.

Not really. I know it's there, it's in front of me and in 15 years I have yet to forget a gun or a jacket or keys anywhere....including bathrooms

I meant no offence I've just heard too many stories of people who never forgot their gun in the stall...... until they did.

I wouldn't do it but if you are comfortable with it I won't tell you not to
 
I guess I am lucky that I am so "regular". Right after breakfast I hit the porcelain thrown and I am good all day. I eat breakfast at home, but if I am away I go back to my hotel room after breakfast to take care of business. I think the last time I had to use a public restroom to drop a deuce was 40 years ago.

No I gotcha, didn't take it personally. I know people can forget stuff.
 
When pocket carrying (95% of the time), there is no issue with using the stall. If carrying OWB, I just keep my pants pulled higher on my legs, or transfer the gun to the inside crotch area of my pants while the business transaction is occurring- kinda hard to forget about there as well.
 
Well in order to remain tacticoolly prepared I hold the gun in one hand trained on the door and handle everything else with the other hand while humming an action theme...

Seriously, I just use the pressure of my legs to keep the gun vertically inclined and in the holster. I am a little more attentive when there are others conducting the process of elimination nearby. If the other person seeing it is an issue where tattle tailing or a gun grab could occur: hang it on the door. If you can't remember your gun, you aren't responsible enough to carry it. Forget how dangerous it is, or how disorganized it is. The darned thing cost good money and your Momma raised you better than to leave expensive things lying around. Always check your rates before moving out. Simple enough.
 
I have just left it in my iwb holster without any problems. I am not going to over think this. m

My position exactly. BTDT and don't worry about it. NDs and forgetting it happen when you unholster and put it anywhere. Less handling the better.

I especially frown on utilizing the coat hook as a weapon storage device. There are several stories about such a set-up becoming a pinwheel of excitement due to the hook and trigger developing a self-perpetuating relationship, much to the chagrin of other bathroom patrons.
 
Nature can issue a subpoena if she wishes. My gun stays in its holster in my right front pocket. Accessible in the extremely unlikely event that some miscreant wants to take advantage of my temporary indisposition, and invisible to anyone looking under the stall for other reasons.

Rarely a problem in any case.
