I thought the purpose of the Wally Walk was to carry, inconspicuously, in the midst of a crowd and to be reassured by the fact that no one would notice.

There is certainly nothing inconspicuous about posing for photos in Wal Mart.
Having our CHL prevents us from having a little fun? The only two people who knew I was carrying in that WalMart were me and my friend taking the pictures. If anything they probably thought we were partners finishing up a date :smilelol5:
I don't think the silliness depicted in some of the photos reflects well on licensees.
On the contrary, I would say that the sense of humor shows that CHL holders are human beings just like everyone else and we are no different simply because we carry. Yes it is an awesome responsibility but it doesn't make us less human or super human.
But then I'm a cantankerous old man.
And I'm just a immature young bachelor ;-) To each his own. Not everyone is going to be a fan of the TAM approved Wally Walk

I say, "Man Card approved." What say the rest of ye worthy ones?

:mrgreen:
haha thank you TAM, but no one really remembers the guy who flew the 2nd plane ever ;-)

And yea I like this trend, hopefully people keep this up. Besides, it helps to put a face to the nickname

New plastic? Check! Wally Walk? Check! Pictures? You bet!

Got my plastic in the mail today FINALLY :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana :anamatedbanana
You can see my timeline below in my signature.

Didn't get around to the Wally Walk until late this evening, but I did as best as I could.
Wearing a Comp-tac IWB MTAC holster at around 4 o'glock with Sig P229 .40 S&W with 12+1 rounds of Corbon DPX 185gr, I strolled into my local Wally World around 11:30pm on 5/21. Not too many people around, but I asked my friend to come along with so he could look at my backside and see how much I was printing.

I get a cart and stroll over to the produce section

Once there, I promptly unholstered my firearm so that I could take the following picture:


wait for it....

So, printing doesn't look so bad I figure, at least to the regular untrained eye

I wanted to get some ammo, but it was almost midnight, and there was no one to be found near the sporting goods section (even less so than usual). My local Walmart also does not sell fresh nachos, but I did manage to get my proverbial nacho shot:

So, plastic in hand, Wally Walk complete, I'm just glad this wait is finally over and I can count myself among the rank of responsible citizens who are able to protect themselves and the people around them! :thumbs2:

It's been a long and agonizing stay in the Waiting Room, but I've got to leave, see ya! :txflag:
