First and Last Wally Walk

#1

Post by Tireshred »

Just to keep with tradition I did the Wally Walk today. I can't say I enjoyed myself, but it's done :hurry: . And NO ONE had better complain about the middle photo, that's just what you get when you go to a packed Wally World on Saturday afternoon. Someone will have to hold a :fire to my head to go again any time soon...

Ha, yea, I need to be a FEW pounds lighter, it sure would make concealing easier. But until then, bowling shirts and Fobus holsters are the order of the day. I gotta say the XD 45 Compact is very comfy with this setup.

FWIW, I carry my XD's in Don Hume's First Agent or J.I.T. holsters. They're about the same price as a Fobus and carry well and I need to lose a lot more than a few pounds.

Went to church today and was a little paranoid that I was printing because I just got my texas heritage for a full size 1911 w/rail... pretty comfortable holster.

Yeah, but why were you not back buying some "relatively" cheap white boxes of ammo???

That would have made for a great picture!

Cosmetics aisle??? Dude, really... :smilelol5:

When my wife and I go to Walmart and we shop together (as opposed to going our separate ways and cell phoning when we one of us is ready to go), the most common comment we make to one another is, "Should we tell her in what aisle the full length mirrors are stocked?"
