Oh, oh, oh. I forgot about this one. I wasn't CCing but it was darn embarrassing.

I just peppered sprayed my shower door installer

Quote:
So the shower door installer arrives. When he rang the doorbell, I noticed that there was a package delivered from UPS. As he is bringing in the door and his tools, I am opening up the package.

Inside the box is my order of pepper spray from Spitefire. I pulled out one of the packages, open it up and examine it. I am talking with the installer, now in my bathroom, and "playing" with the canister. I push the button and nothing happens. Then I remember that you have to push the button and push forward, so I do that. Then the canister fires. I actually hit the shower door which was good because that was between the nozzle and his face. The spray fills the air and we both have to clear out of the room because we are gagging and can't breath.

ExactlyMyPoint, look on the bright side. I once had a very old, and been sitting in a car, can of OC foam spray burst in my door pocket of parents car when I was in highschool. Some how I pulled over to the side and parked completely blind. After that no more OLD OC cans left in the car. Ever since I know OC sucks, especially in an inclosed space.

I hope it's alright if I post in this thread, I'm not old enough to get a permit yet but Id still like to share an embarrassing moment.

In January I was with my parents at a gun show, I picked up a 1911 chambered in .38 super and it was the first time Iv ever held a handgun. I asked the dealer if I could pull the slide back and such he basically said sure do whatever you want just don't break it then he walked away to deal with a serious buyer because I told him I was only looking today... I fiddled with it a bit (obeying all the rules of safety of course, pointed down and such) I finally decided to pull the slide back, well it was harder than I thought it would be... I was trying to pull it back gently and suddenly WHOOSH it flew back and slammed forward.. I felt like I must have jumped 3 feet in the air but I didn't move.. just sat there for a second staring at my accomplishment .. I looked around real quick because it sounded extremely loud and I was sure everyone was looking at me but there wasn't a single turned head. I put the weapon down and walked away feeling the most embarrassed Iv ever felt in my life but I still couldn't wipe the off my face no matter how hard I tried... I can't wait until I can have my own...

Both my parents said I didn't even flinch pulling the slide back but as I said I seriously felt like I had just jumped 3 feet in the air.

I got "kilt checked" by a drunk lady with no teeth. Fortunately I caught on pretty quick and was able to get my hand over my Smartcarry.

For those who ask the question as to what underneath the kilt, they are sometime disappointed when they find out theres undergarments on. But what they dont know is that a .45 can rub a serious sore on "stuff".

Alex!

Well, it's not too embarrassing, but it was interesting at the time.

When I first got my permit I went straight to the gun store to pick out my first carry gun. I got a Bersa .380 and I was DANG proud of it. Until a guy leaned over and told me "Aw, that's cute"... Cute? No guy had ever told me any of my guns were "cute" before, so I was a little deflated. So I called my mom to tell her the good news.

Me: "Hey mom, I got my permit and a new gun!"
Mom: "Oh that's great, I remember when I got mine!"
Me: "You have a permit? What do you carry?"
Mom: "Yes, all I have is a .357 mag now, I carried a .44 mag for years but I can't shoot that one as good as I used to."
Me: "Wow, I never knew."
Mom: "So what did you get?"
Me: "A Bersa .380, it's silver with wood grips"
Mom: "Sounds like a cute gun!"

I later found out that my dad packed a .357mag for years too that I never knew about. I guess it just didn't come up in conversation. Now that I look at the Bersa, it is kind of cute... In a hard-core kind of way.

Speak for yourself.

I, and nearly all the members if our clan, go regimental. OTOH, regimental regs do require those in athletics, band, and dance to wear undergarments.

So maybe you toss the caber, eh?

This wasn't you, was it?

Not too bad...but singing in a choir, surrounded by people, I noticed the guy next to me kept starting at my pocket. When I checked, I realized that my Nemesis pocket holster wasn't doing a very good job of breaking up the profile of my pistol with the thin material of my pants.

Next session, I put an inhaler in the pocket (looks surprisingly similar in profile) and made a point to pull it out and use it in his sight.

Since, I purchased a pocket holster that carries a spare mag as well, creating a more square profile.

You know if you carry something on you long enough it just becomes routine and you forget it is on you until you need it. Well here I was at the doctor’s office and I thought he was only going to listen to my heart and breathing. Well the nurse comes in and tells me to strip down to my underwear. I kicked the old shoes off and dropped the pants and I heard her take in a loud breath. For a split second there I felt kind of proud but then it hit me, I had my ankle holster on with my S/W air weight and the nurse just spotted it. About that time the doctor who I know came in and saved her from freaking out.
