OK, just got home to Southern California from a week's RV trip to the Grand Canyon. And at the ripe old age of 65, carried a concealed (firearm) weapon for the first time. Finally.
I've had a Utah non-resident's permit for a number of years - getting it was as much a political statement about my home as anything else, but I've always felt the need to carry some type weapon, even as a young adult. In California, that's pretty much restricted to folding knives and a monkey fist on my keychain.
Prior to this trip, I hadn't traveled out of state since I obtained my permit.
Gosh, cross a border and things change, don't they? I was able to carry my Ruger LCR in .327 - legally! It felt very natural. The first day, I used a Sneaky Pete holster. The following days, I pocket carried using a DeSantis holster. I'll have to experiment with other modes of carry during future trips.
I'm back home now and I'm missing that little additional weight at my side.
I look forward to a Supreme Court that will set my state politicians and jurists straight about enumerated rights.
