You got to hate it when this happens

[TopDog]

I have read similar stories and wonder how in the heck do you do this?
I always carry with a holster (even if it's a pocket holster) that does not leave me even when attending to such matters. How can you leave your weapon in a public place?

Woman's gun stolen after leaving it in restroom

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) - A 24-year-old Juneau woman went into a public restroom packing heat and left burned. The Juneau Police Department reports Veronica Balle-Arnes was carrying a Ruger .380 - a small pocket pistol - worth about $400 with her Friday night.
She told police she took the gun out of her waistband and set it on top of a toilet paper dispenser in the women's room at the Fisherman's Wharf, a building on Juneau's downtown waterfront with a bar, eateries and shops.
She told police she forgot to pick it back up. When she realized it was missing a few moments later, she returned to the restroom but the gun was gone.

Hammock method, people.

Very difficult to forget it's there when you pull your pants back up.

If that lady was wearing a skirt and a certain type of undergarment, the hammock method wouldn't be very effective.

True. In that case the BosomBuddy might work better.

I did that, once, when I first started carrying. I knew if I kept doing it, someday I would forget it, so now I put it in my pocket.

What is the HAMMOCK method?

i am pretty sure i wouldnt have layed the gun down just because of the chance that you may forget it if anything just hold it while you are going
