Saw a gentleman coming into Walmart open carrying a poly pistol as I was leaving. I was also open carrying a poly pistol.
Forgot to share this jewel. Few weeks ago I'm walking the puppy in the backyard. In my peripheral I notice a large object. Turn, and to my surprise there is a full grown German Shepherd soaking wet covered in dirt and mud. Pull my piece, he's about 10 yards away. I gave the standard, who's a good dog! He replied with the, I'm a good dog. You know waggy tail, dog smile, and a promise of a treat look. Anyway lead him to the garage and put down food and water. After he gets comfortable I gain enough confidence to reach for his tag. Thankfully it has a number on it. So I call the owner and explain to him where I am located. 10 minutes later Bubba shows up at my house in bib overalls, no shirt, and a high point dangling out of one of his side pockets. Overall good ending for all involved .
Not super recent, but I went to a wedding recently and a guy there was open carrying one of the compact Glocks - not sure which one. It was a more casual wedding (jeans and nice shirts) so it didn't really stick out too much.
Was he a guest or one of the groomsmen? A little while ago, I know a guy that went to a casual wedding like you described. He was one of the groomsmen and was open carrying a Glock.
He was a guest. That's really cool that one of the groomsmen in a wedding was carrying! That's definitely something I haven't seen before.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. When I wrote "one" I meant that the guy I knew was open carrying. I didn't mean to imply that he was the only one armed. I do know that all the groomsmen were carrying openly but I don't know about the bridesmaids. Your story still tops mine since I didn't see it with my own eyes. I just heard about it from my friend.
Same, I'd hate to see him get iced while dude's trying to tear the gun out through a broken retention button.
I'm not dismissing the validity of criticism of the design features of the SERPA. They are valid and they have failed. However, a lot of people have gotten a lot of good service from the product and will continue to do so. That's just the way it is.
I think the biggest flaw is the weak belt attachment, with the potential for the release to jam second, and the potential for negligent discharge a distant, distant third. I put them on my "not interested" list based on the crappy belt loops and don't recommend them to anyone. At the same time, I don't believe they are Satan's own holster, destined to maim, murder, and rape everyone who comes into contact with them. They're going to be sold for a long time to come and most people who use them will never have a problem.
You probably don't roll around in the mud and snow for no reason like most of the tacticool YouTubers do.
I attended a Robert Vogel class this spring. One student had a Serpa & something in the latch broke during class. He could not unholster his gun. He scrounged around picking up 22LR brass and flattening those so he could jam them into the holster latch to keep it unlocked. We weren't rolling around in that class.
