Recently I had to go in for a post procedure follow up and assumed there'd be no need for an exam. Wrong.

As it turned out the Physicians Assistant was doing the follow up and after a few questions she requested I take my shirt off so she could do a little poking and prodding and heart beat listening.

Uh-oh!

I was packing and in the past have always removed my pistol and holster, etc. any time I was to go in to see any doc and this was the very first time I hadn't.

I was absolutely positive there'd be no exam as the receptionist as much as said so when the appointment was made.

So, before I removed my shirt , I very calmly told the P.A. what she was about to see and how I've always removed it before coming in blah, blah, blah. I then thought she might also feel more secure knowing that I wasn't just some guy with a gun, so I showed her my CHL.

To her great credit, she said "No problem" as I removed my Glock 19 and layed it on chair.

I felt kind of embarrassed and foolish.

She seemed rather amused.
