    You’ll never hear me say it doesn’t matter how you carry. I’m in the boat that think how you carry represents how you handle your firearm in general. If i see you carrying with a belt looped through the trigger guard, you’ll never go to a range with me.

    Not to mention it makes us gun owners look like morons when people do that. I prefer not to give the anti’s any ammunition that will be used to point and say “see!”

    It was a funny statement, but I've always felt that JFC means OC or CC. Doesn't matter which, just carry responsibly. The chuckleheads in this thread are not covered by JFC.

    Ok...so maybe I'm just uninformed, but what is irresponsible about the ankle OC posted upthread? Assuming it's a proper holster, that method seems more reasonable than a waistband holster on stretchy pants. :dunno:

    Only thing I can think of is that ankle carry is specifically for concealed carry and it's easily visible. Matter of fact with pants like those worn there's no real way to conceal it. Just my :twocents:

    I would agree that the ankle carry with tights looks kind of funny, but II'm not sure there's anything wrong with it though.

    I'm not sure how you would go about carrying in any way that wouldn't look funny with those pants. They print like crazy.

    It looks like it's a thumb break holster with the strap oriented the wrong way (against the leg). I thought the "fail" was that she was wearing it on the wrong ankle.

    I just looked on line, the thumb break is always on the inside, as I thought.

    The only thing that would make it better would be the "home detention" anklet on the other ankle.

    Be fair. The lone Ranger and Elmer Keith carried like that... even Coach does! The only thing idiotic here is the choice of holster
