Circumventing pat downs and metal detector wands

[misconfig]

This isn't about police patting you down, or carrying someplace you legally cannot. Simply places that do not want you to carry and have security guards check patrons, i.e stadiums, bars etc.

I have my own method, normally the ol' lady and I go to Nicky Blaine's; the manager knows us well enough to realize we both have firearms.

Somehow this has leaked out and I get patted down each time we go there by the security guards. I have developed the habit of putting the most concealable weapon I have ( db380 ) in my "front".

This way, they never pat there and when a wand goes off; I simply blame it on my belt - after I'm in, I head to the restroom and reposition my junk. I've done this at Lucas Oil Stadium, too; I don't like walking in and out of those places without proper protection.



By the way, anyone wanna buy a DB380, hardly TAINTED with fowling?

Pre-quoted, for your sig line convenience.

I hate metal detectors. I have an artificial shoulder so I set them off regardless. I tend to avoid them if possible, even if I am not carrying.

I found that when I was walking with a cane they never searched me at all, also for those parents out there the bottom of the diaper bag is a good spot, just have to find a stall to transfer it back.

Do you mean like IWB appendix position or deeper like a SmartCarry/Thunderwear sort of arrangement?

Since it's only extremely temporary, I keep it in a uncle mikes holster and just toss it in there..

I'll remember that next time I see him and his son at the kart track racing.

I don't go places where they make ostentatious displays of faux security.

Sickening, isn't it? Most of the time they are unarmed anyway. What would they do if some psycho wasnt playing the "secure area" game...call 911?

 

[Suprtek]

Wow! Do they have an official "no firearms" policy? Do they search everyone? If not, this sounds like harassment or possible discrimination to me.

Slip them twenties, man.

I have titanium staples in my body and it has never set anything off... yet.

Now that you have shared your secret don't be surprised if the next time they pat you down they put on rubber gloves first.

I like to put a j-frame in an ankle rig (I have never been wanded past the belt line) and when I get inside go into a bathroom and put it in a pocket holster.

I wish everyone would wear clothing that had metallic fabric to set off all metal detectors and shield from all intrusive x-rays and such. They'd quickly realize it's too expensive, time-consuming, disgusting and off-putting to have all their customers or citizens have to go through more thorough searches.

Use metallic paint to spell out "BITE ME" on your chest for the new airport x-rays, or some other funny and politely dissonant and disruptive communication.

I have had to work at the County-city building for the security company I work for part-time and I check for ankle carry when the full sized detector goes off.
