I was walking through a parking lot yesterday. My Glock 19 in a Galco Paddle holster wacked someone side mirror so hard I thought it was damaged. After careful inspection, I found no damage. That would have been and interesting conversation as I told the owner what happened.
Yeah, so I was walking in between cars when my gun knocked off your mirror!

If you don't do it often, it's definitely something to adjust to... however if you do it often enough it's like an extension of your body and you naturally 'make room' for it.
But yeah, I think I'd leave the gun part out and just say I was clumsy and walked into your mirror. :)

A bang would be a very bad thing.
I did that the other day... a car parked at 7-11, and my magazine holder tagged a mirror. I carry concealed, but I was carrying OWB with a cover shirt. I knocked the mirror back and had to snap it back in place. The driver and passenger were sitting in car looking at me.
