If you have been carrying for a long time you have probably got busted at one time or another. I have twice in my 10yrs of carry.

Had a DR. appointment in Aug of 006. Had cancer & was about to have surgery. I was headed in the building for my last appointment before the surgery. The Dr also started in at the same time. We greated & I held the 1st door for him. He got the 2nd door, nodded & as I stepped through he popped me on the left kidney area as we visited & he hit my extra mags.
D. What was that? Was that a gun?
Me. No doc it was not.
D. Well what was it? I think you have a gun.
M. Doc you sure ask a lot of questions about a guys underwear. I am by now wondering where this is going. We are both continuing to walk toward the office.
D. If that was not a gun what was it?
Time to fess up I am guessing by now.
M. My extra magazines.
D. You do have a gun. Short pause My wife has a pistol liscense.
M. Good I will be one to encourage her. :flag:
We split up. I register & he enters the Dr. door.
Later in the office for report on last visit.
D. Did you have one last time you were here?
M. Doc you have never seen me unarmed yet. Does that make you nervous now that you know it? I am no different when you know I am armed than when you did not know.
D. Well no I guess not.
Two week before he took a biopsy of my prostate.
D. Did you have one the day I did your biopsy.
I can barely keep from showing a grin but I managed it.
M. Yes sir. It was not this one but I did have one in my back pocket.
D. I never did a biopsy on anyone with a gun on them.
M. Doc, You mean that you knew had a gun on them. I am sure you have more patients than you think that have CHL. Some of us carry all the time. If you had not patted my mags on the way in you would not know you had done my biopsy while I was armed. I never did tell him the wife was setting in the waiting room w/ another one.
D. Uhhh, right. OK your questions.
All back to normal for the rest of the visit. He did tell me that I am a high mantainance patient. Too many questions.
My Dr. Appointment in Dec. & I am starting to gain some strength again.
We were through & I had the door open to leave. He says, OH yea, I almost forgot, you got a gun on today.
Me. Yes sir.
Dr. Where is it?
Me. Have you seen it?
Dr. No. where is it?
M. Under my shirt right side.
Dr. Can I see it?
M. You want to just see where it is or do you want to look at it?
Dr. I want to see it and holds out his hands.
I close the door, clear it, show him the empty chamber & he reaches for it.
What kind is it?
Kimber Pro. .45.
How does it work?
Show him how it cycles.
How do you cock it?
You dont. When it is loaded it is cocked & locked. Showed him how the bevertail & thumb safety work.
How hard is it to pull the trigger?
4.5 lb. Go ahead.
Theres not any bullets in it???
No sir All on the seat here. Show clear again.
He pulls the trigger.
Hands it back.
Shortly thereafter he goes to the rang w/ me & learns to shoot.
He is now a member & we shoot together occasionally.
Good DR & friend too.
