I was having a discussion with a friend the other day who just got his conceal carry permit. He was asking questions about how I felt when I first carried. It got me to thinking about how far I've really come in the two years I've been carrying concealed. It seems the first hurdle was finding a setup that was comfortable for all day carry. I would wear it around the house and give it a good test run there. Then I remember having to get over that paranoid feeling of folks staring at me....although they had no idea I was carrying because it was concealed. Now, it's just part of my life. I never walk out the door without a pistol on me.
Feel free to share your experiences when you first began carrying. Were you also paranoid about the public seeing you carrying?
