Quote HistoryQuoted: Meh. If you are going to go to the trouble, make it worthwhile. You need a troll with a disability requiring a medical device, though, like an insulin pump. Expose it to whatever the dogs hit on, refuse to be searched / refuse to expose the device after telling them what it is. Get kicked out. File ADA suit. Profit. Damn, not even 10 am on holiday and the retardedness is going strong... |

Well, now I know what to do with that aspirin bottle that I dump all the powder into that I get out of dud rounds found on the range.
That's now the marinade for "seasoning" decoys. The idea of a medical device as a decoy is _brilliant_. |

Inquiring Texans want to know. I would like to know. I have carried in a posted mall and posted BBQ joint in AL and intend to again next time I am down there. |

I went to a new bank recently. They had this special sally-port entrance with a metal detector. I was CCW as always and didnt feel like going back to the car. Me, my mom, and my 3yo daughter all pilled into the metal detector room waiting to be allowed in. I gambled that with all the shit that typical women carry in their purses, the thing was turned off or set so high that only a boat anchor would set it off....and I was right.
As for the Mall in the OP, I'd be tempted to sit out near the entrance and surreptitiously squirt folks walking in with one of those squirt bottles of CLP.... |

I mean, if a local mall has such a violence problem they have a k9 to sniff out guns, I'm going to avoid that mall.
Especially if I am not allowed to protect myself. |

"Sorry officer, I was at the range earlier" (and maybe he should maintain his firearm better if that was what it alerted on) CLP? "Sorry officer, it's my cologne" I believe it, something like that happened to me. My wife and I were hiking on a local trail, and I had a S&W 642 in my pocket. Another hiker and his dog passed going in the opposite direction. The dog planted his nose on my front right pocket where the gun was, leaving a nice wet nose print. The guy looked like he knew the dog found something but didn't say anything. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: While the special treatment is certainly an issue, I think the point of this particular post was that (1) they’re sniffing us out and (2) “concealed means concealed” may not always work. I participated in a webinar recently on venue security. The thermal scanning tech, they can see your gun. Do you know the effective distance of that equipment? About a decade ago, I went to an interactive museum that had a thermal scanner with live feed for guests to try. My pistol was very obvious from ten feet or so. I wondered if a thermal blanket would defeat it, but never went back to test it. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: My wife's backpack was always searched after being swabbed, nine never did. Mine had been used for shooting and hunting, hers had never been around a gun. Not sure what on her bag kept testing positive or if it was just random searches Simple, the TSA agents find her attractive and not you. Up your game if you need some TSA fondling. Or opt out of the scan for their hands on male assist. |
