Right on all counts LT. I was aware at the time that he could not legally give me permission to open carry, and I did not take it literally. I had already decided to just pull my shirt out before going in if I was going to need to remove my cover garment in the future.longtooth wrote:Welcome to the board. Huuuumm, 69 South just outside the loop headed to Huntington. Shop on the Left. Yep, that would be his response all right. Might need to keep it covered though. As above: he cant legally give you permission to uncover. May never be an issue but there is always the chance a new customer will be in. Also the state barber shop inspector can walk in. One of the Lufkin PD officers used to barber there as a side job too. I know he did quit for a while but could come in too.
You really answered your own ? when you said "all the time you kept hoping no one would come in."
My barber knows too. I have one of my flyers on his board. He turns my vest collar down and then puts the neck paper on. He still gives me a straight razer shave too. You are right about probably being able to put your cover garment back on in there w/o anyone seeing. Should be pretty easy since you are not self conscious & not making a big deal out of HIDING something. It would not be my recomendation though.
We need to meet for coffee or soda & a shoot some day. Bring your dad along. Could be we know each other.
PM me w/ a tele # if interested.
