This discussion is nice and all, but can we keep it on topic of just pictures of daily carry? I'd like for you to comment on my gun. Say pretty things about it. Tell me that it looks hideous. Thanks.

So everyone knows you should never post your gun with the serial number showing. Black out the serial number or don't it's up to you, just trying to help out that's all.
There's no real reason to block out any firearm serial number - UNLESS you're the guy that stole it
Your giving people bad advice, but I'm guessing you know what your talking about? How about you do some research before giving out bad advice.
What harmful act, pray tell, do you think some internet bad guy will do with a random serial number pulled off such an image?
Do a drive by?
I deal with firearm serial numbers 6 days a week and have never had the ATF or any local, state, or federal law enforcement entity even hint at something nefarious done with a borrowed serial number.
This probably deserves a separate thread. We can either call it 'internet gun myths' or I can eat my hat.
I saw this with humor. I intend you no ill will, but I am curious what is you think/know to be wrong here.
Don't want to argue which Is against rules, but I could explain it to you but you know what maybe you will learn the hard way one day. I hope you don't but if you don't believe me keep posting serial numbers of your guns and eventually you will learn the hard way.
One of my biggest mistakes in life...Is Believing people will show me the same love I've shown them.

No need to argue, just answer the question or provide a link to something that supports your assertion.
Don't have no links that you would like but I do know there are a lot of bad people in this world.
One way someone can use the serial number is to basically lie and report it lost or stolen. If your stopped and they run your gun you know what happens.
Best thing to do is Keep the reciet of every gun as some form of evidence but the criminal can have a friend write him/her a bill of sale for that gun so he/she has their illegal proof but proof not in their handwriting.
Another way is to build let's say a 1911 yourself and use the serial number so if checked you can assume its clean ect. Just by looking on these websites because you know most these people are good
I can't remember the website I was on years ago but they had the guys name plastered all over and explained how the guy had a class lll item transferred without his knowledge. I believe if memory is right it was a machine gun. Dont know the outcome of that but wish I would of kept the page, also in contact.
Sorry for not having proof guess it could be far fetched thinking but you do you and I'll keep being paranoid? Just hope I didn't give the criminals ideas now?

This is one that I’ve always wanted. Been carrying it a lot and I have to say that I love it. I had a PPQ that was a fantastic handgun, one that I shot better than any other. I could not get used to carrying it with its wonderful trigger. It gave me the Heeebie-jeebies. With the P99 I have the same basic feel but can carry it in double action. I put the excellent Trijicon HD’s on it and I am loving it.

Dan Wesson Guardian 9mm and 2 spare mags with TTGunleather has been mostly my EDC for a while now.
That is a nice set up carlson. I have to ask you a question though. I find it very difficult to carry a four inch 1911 concealed. Even if I wear a shirt untucked it likes to pattern and even peak out now and then. If you don't mind saying I would like to know how you dress around that rig when CC.
It may be my weight. I am about 50 pounds overweight. I like to tell myself I have a large frame.
Lightningrocks I wished I was s just 50lbs overweight. I am 6’4 and 416lbs at this time. I was 503lbs at my heaviest. I have no problem concealing the commander or the full size. I wear a suit a lot. If not in a suit usually dress pants with a squared off dress shirt untucked. I do also carry it in a Milt Sparks VM2 also. When carrying IWB I use a horizontal mag holder and only carry one extra mag.
