Do you wear any pro gun shirts?

I wear them from time to time. When I wear my friends"The Gunsmith" Shirt. I always have people asking about guns. This evening I had a Elderly greeter at walmart ask me how and where she could buy a handgun. I told her where the local gun shops were and that they could train her there also. She looked kind of nervous about asking about guns. Maybe she is wanting to be a pro gun convert.

Does this ever happen to you?

When I wear my sig or galco hats all I ever get is other gun people telling me they have one of there products.

I assume that Sig and Galco are not that well known outside of the gun community.

Perhaps if I wore a glock, colt, or beretta shirt/hat I'd get more interaction.

Maybe nervous because she is inside the Wally World and on the clock. Three are some there that are like us but scared to death to say anything that might be grounds for early dismissal.

(I was out of town visiting relatives and had to get some items for my son who was a baby ATT. The greater says Hello, this is a great day, thank you for visiting the Dextor Walmart. I turned and looked at her and murmered kind of like Lurch rom Adams family..On my way out she follows me and in the parking lot she unloads how bad it is there since Sam Walton died and how his kids don't care about the workers just the cash flow. She has the job due to an injury and loss of her real job and this was the low paying that could be used in conjunction with her disability.)

No

Nope. Don't have any gun shirts. I really don't have anything that would indicate a pro-gun inclination. After obtaining my CCW here in CA, I feel the need to conceal all involvement with guns.

I did see a black sticker on a truck today that said, "Got SIG" in white letters. In CA, that is saying something. You really don't see that everyday.

About the only things that I wear out are my NRA hat, and my "Peace through Superior Firepower" T shirt. Oh, I just remembered my Gun Owners of America Shirt which has on the back, "I'm a bitter clinger", with a handgun and a bible graphic. I do wear that out as well.

I have a shirt with a quote on it from Adolf Hitler about gun control. It's a strong statement and has opened more than one conversation. I have yet to have a flaming anti- attack me over it, though. I have had plenty of people ask where to get some firearms training, and for the ladies I point them to one of our local ranges that does free range time, rentals, and instruction for women on Friday nights.

I don't only because I have a hard time paying $20 for a T-Shirt. I have a couple of Martial Arts related shirts, but many of them I have earned by being a tournament judge or are a part of my class uniform, etc.

I don't have a problem with wearing any of them, its just the expense of a T-Shirt with me.

So far I haven't had the urge to buy any gun shirts. At times I'm tempted to buy pro 2A shirt or two for occasional wear. I still wouldn't make of habit of wearing it too often.

Although I do OC to & from work on the days I do work. My neighbors know I own a handgun. Beyond my G26 they have no idea of what I own with regards to handgun/rifles. They'll never find as far as I'm concerned.

I'm with Paco...I just don't pay much for t shirts. Don't own any gun shirts. I threw out my NRA hat. I won't wear a hat that isn't fitted.

On my truck, I have an NRA sticker on the back window behind the glass, which is tinted, so you have to be looking for it or in direct sunlight to really see it.
