Yes-- I pop a few here and at the club too. I have a Remington semi-- old but like a friend. So old it is inly chambered for 3". I carried a 12 ga at times. Mostly it was just hanging uncomfortably. The sound once I thought was effective, if not the 00. <<"Don't hear much about flechette rounds anymore. But damn they are effective and still in use.">> Rarely hear of them. Actually, they were used more than talked about in the '60s too. Effective-- very and brings back memories too. No-- the oldstyle shoulder holsters only looked good in the Rambo (and Kerry) flicks. No LBE worn,, no shirts either! I have an ankle rig for my 357 but it is too uncomfortable as the weapon is too heavy-- but it works when clothing will not support any other carry method. With a shirt out it goes easily behind my back-- but it is too slow to grab. Another memory-- and just think if the local constabulary had 40mm with anti-personnel round for crowd control. No more crowds. On the dance floor at my wedding my little auto slid out of my ankle rig-- made some really wonder,,LOL. Only 007 could carry concealed under a tux. Guess I should have strapped a Ka-bar there instead <smile>.
