Hard to say but those boots look kinda fem
I never knew you could do that with shoes... This change my entire point of vue about cowboy shoes. From ridiculous it went for "amazing their is pockets inside"
That’s a Taurus 709 Slim! I have that same pistol. Great concealed carry gun.
Why would you want to conceal a gun you're carrying? Not you in particular I mean, in general.
I took a conceal carry course and one of the main reasons they say to do it is safety. If you are open carrying in a store and someone wants to rob it they will either get scared off or take you out first. It's not worth the risk. That and I would always worry about someone just rushing me and trying to take/use it.
Cops / military open carry because they already have the uniform, and the implications that has (legal use of force, training, and back up). Private citizens are safer if they conceal carry for a number of reasons, here are two:
Privacy. Some people get intimidated and / or think open carry is a political statement. Which it is sometimes, but not usually. If you open carry, it's better to do in appropriate settings and with groups. Day to day carry, it is better to just blend in with the crowd.
Security/safety. If you open carry you need to be prepared for someone trying to disarm you or shoot you first, because they know where your weapon is, and that you have it. It's not really worth the deterant value. In conflict it's better to have the element of surprise rather than be surprised by someone who knows who has a gun, and where they are.
