Finally a well dressed Wal-Mart shopper

[/URL][/IMG]


Just a housewife out shopping in Alaska .
No permit required in Alaska for either open
(must be 18) carry or concealed (must be 21) carry.
CHECK THEIR CRIME RATE, LOWEST IN OUR NATION?
Why would that be??
NOT one school shooting either.

(that's what you call 'packing heat')

that is what we do when i was in arizona. go to bank, shop in a mall, get some grocery, walk in the street, ride a bike, with your sidearm openly carrying it...

Bravo. I'll live in America one day.

Are you sure that's a Walmart? Looks too nice.

And there's more than 5' of space between aisles.

I came here to say the same thing. I mean, I dig the woman open carrying a 1911, but that is either not, or must be the nicest looking Walmart I've ever seen. Plus there isn't an overabundance of slow walkers clogging up the aisles...

Its one of those super Walmarts. I went to one in Latrobe Penn and it looks just like that, clean floors and all.

Condition 3 carry?

Condition 3 carry?

That's the first thing I noticed. Why not 1?

Shelf stickers don't lie.

This is how I shop at Walmart in NC.

I noticed it as well. Many people prefer condition 3 carry for a 1911. It's a personal decision no different than everyone choosing the model/brand/caliber gun they will carry.

The key to any carry is to train as you would fight. If she has trained to draw and rack the slide in one fluid motion. She should be able to deploy the firearm very quickly.

The IDF (Israeli Defense Force) trains to use condition 3 with all firearms unless engaged in active combat. It is an effective way to carry but it requires intensive and regular training and practice.

I carry "cocked and locked". It's what works for me. However, for some, I can see where it would not be ideal.

To each his own.

Definitely doesn't look like any Walmart I've been in. Plus it has a Eat in Cafeteria and the Sale signs are not Walmart.

Safeway. Somewhere.

Do you use a holster with a retention strap that goes between the hammer and firing spring?

I agree with using condition 1, that's how I would carry a 1911. I also use a holster that has a retention strap that rest between the hammer and firing pin for a little extra security.

I was just commenting on the "why" question.

Honestly, I looked but couldn't tell.

I do not currently. It's in the future.

The Israeli Method is pretty impressive...

Any idea as to why only using three rounds in the mag?

 

[Chriss]

Am I the only one looking at the rack above the gun?

Is there something wrong with her green top?
