No shame in carrying w/o one in the chamber on your first day or two. But hopefully you move past that quickly and get back to a full load soon :tiphat:

I moved my keys from RF pocket to LF as a reminder to leave my right hand free/unencumbered as I head out to my car in the parking lot. I think I've always carried wallet LR, so no change needed there. But I *am* a huge believer in keeping that wallet as thin as possible for health reasons.

Orvis, hm? I'll have to check that out, my current wallet is starting to fall apart. My new GF is after me about cleaning up my style, and a wallet is on her list.

Edit: is this the one?

I'll quit carrying a gun when they make murder and armed robbery illegal

Congrats. Cargo pants are really handy. Can't always wear those though. I pull my wallet out of my left back pocket upon entering the house, the car, and work. I can't say that I had back probelms that were so terrible I had to do something about it, but I can definitely tell that there's some aches and pains if I stay on it for me than about an hour.

Tom Estep is great. Your wife should enjoy the class. He has some tips on money clips etc that he talked about in class a little bit with us. A "throw down" for confrontation situations was one good idea that he mentioned. I haven't put that stuff into practice yet. I'm still addicted to draggin around my wallet with tons of stuff in it. I'd like to get one of those card carriers and a money clip or something and separate the two things, but my pockets are already full with keys, cell phone, change, etc. I enjoy pants that have a couple of extra pockets (cargo type or pants that have the little cell pocket or whatever).
