I have a strong suspicion that this subject has been talked to death somewhere here, but I can't find anything using the search function. If it has and you know how I can locate information, maybe that would save everyone time.
I'm an older guy, but new to CCW and new to the site. I have been going through all of the predictable issues, holsters, self-consciousness, when to carry, chambered/not chambered, etc.
I'm thinking now about how to dress. I have been reading about an untucked shirt, Hawaiian shirts and alike. I've never worn that kind of thing. More of a jeans, t shirt, sweatshirt now that I retired. At work I was what you might call business casual, khakis and dress shirt. Is it necessary to dress like Hawaii 5-0 or is there a more normal alternative? I think I'd stick out more if I wore stuff I'm not used to wearing.
One more dumb question. I do wear some of my Army stuff and OD Vietnam Vet jacket, etc. I read somewhere that that tactical or military clothing draws attention and suggests that the person is armed.
Anyhow, as I said, if this is an old, crusty topic let me know.
