Sharpshooter
I work at a travel plaza, and from time to time we get folks from armed carriers that stop in for fuel and such. Usually they go unnoticed, but last night I saw something strange. I was heading to the bathroom behind one of these drivers, and as I did, I found myself looking down the barrel of the Glock he was carrying cross-draw on his left side from a shoulder harness, about even with his kidneys. As he walked, the top of the slide was parallel to the floor so that as he walked and turned, he would sweep anyone behind him with the barrel. It just seems an extremely odd method of carry to me. Granted, a holstered weapon is "safer" than one in someone's hand, it was a tiny bit unnerving for even a gun nut like me. So am I nuts, am I missing something, or was this guy a little out there?
