Why do all these people need to know that you are carrying?
For what it's worth, I do try to let very few people know that I carry. It;s the smart thing to do for several reasons.
However, I probably wouldn't be carrying if it weren't for the fact that several people shared with me that they carry. I just didn't think it was socially acceptable, until I realized half the guys I worked with were carrying." - wayneinFL
I've only had one family member ask to see what I was carrying - a 16 yr old nephew. I cleared and then showed him my 1911.
IMO it would be nice if more of my extended family showed an interest - especially the adults, who all know I carry (talk among themselves over the years, I suppose). I wish they all had CCWs and carried concealed.
P.S. - - well actually I just recalled that recently one adult relative asked me about concealed carry - (but not to see my handgun) - so maybe the situation is improving
