The 4 H's in a 4 leaf clover. We gun toting red necks (as I was recently called in the whole of Obama/Clinton supporters at work) know this kind of country stuff! (again a direct quote from the Clinton supporter organizer!.

Last week they came in and asked me some stupid questions because I was a "gun toting redneck" I think that if they knew I carried, it would get really quiet in there from everyone fainting away, or being petrified in fear - hence my shirts (to keep in on topic) are all business/professional.

as my wife says"he'll wear any color tee shirt as long as it's black."I always wear the same thing..black tee w/ a big button up shirt over it(I'm a fat guy)...and a smith and alexander vest(more for the pockets than CCW reasons.)I pocket carry,so I don't really worry about printing.

Glad to see your opinons on this..,

I did wear my 4H T last night (it wasn't a fancy dinner for us) and came to the knowledge most of my current T's won't fit over my gun.

I've got a really nice Broncos sweatshirt, navy w/orange trim. I'm a medium but the shirt is large and hides my P2000 perfectly. It's my favorite cool/cold weather carry shirt. Bronco gear goes almost unnoticed in Colo., everyone wears it.

Now that it's turning warmer I have to come up with something for summer. In the past, I was always 'tucked in', usually wearing snug fitting golf or t-shirts.

I'm thinking about getting a couple of those shirts (they really look like nice bowling shirts) that Charley Sheen wears untucked with shorts on Two and a Half Men.

I wear Mossy Oak tees or plain polos. Cool weather brings out my green USMC sweatshirt. Being outed while wearing a particular organization's label doesn't bother me. I refuse to look at a gun as taboo. However, when I carry openly, I make sure I look extra presentable.

A guy I know once went out carrying openly wearing a Brady Campaign tee shirt.

I don't care about being outed... If that were all it would be, it would be no big deal. But any negative aspect that could be spun is what bothers me.

And I really just don't want a bad name to come to 4H because of it, if I were outed.

I sure hope guns aren't taboo... I just picked up two more of them!!

Well it's not going to work if you look like your icon of a famous movie star!



Well you could really confuse the sheep. Wear a T-Shirt with the official Gun Buster sign printed on it. Who would dare ask you what that bulge is?

My company provides us with company logo'ed shirts and jackets. This is the same company that craps it's corporate pants if you even say the word "gun" at work! So I don't carry wearing any of their clothing even off the job just to avoid the Murphy Factor.

Other than that exception... I don't worry about what I'm wearing.

A grey ballcap, wrap-around dark sunglasses, and slightly too long hair that looks a bit frazzled usually keep all but the most daring from speaking to me!
