'IT HAPPENED TO ME!'

摘要

The following event occurred four years ago. At the time, I didn't believe in concealed carry. My state has an open interpretation of the wildlife code. If you are in a rural area, and if something is in season, and you have a hunting permit, then it is legal to be openly carrying a firearm. I firmly believed that the best place for a woman's gun was right there on her hip where a man could see it. Besides, the gun I carried was a Ruger Single-Six .22 with a 9.5-inch barrel. I carried it in a homemade leather holster that reached nearly to my knees. There was just no concealing it.
