Kentucky Armory Club

Right on my birthday I get my CCDW from the sheriff and started carrying conealed everywhere I go. I'm finally getting to break in this crossbreed holster and I gotta say I barely notice the thing. I notice the weight of the full size 1911 from time to time but in just a few days I almost don't notice it's there...but it always is and always will be.

Funny enough one of my fellow coaches on the 4H shooting team is married to a rather wonderful lady who wasy carrying concealed before he was. She recognized and commented on my Crossbreed right away. She also pointed out to me that I can tuck my shirt into the holster. I had totally forgotten!!!

I just gotta find a way to mount some holsters in my vehicles now.

Congratulations!!!

Congrats

You may PM KGM for a explanation or he may choose to do so here.

On second thought, I probably don't wanna know.

You forgot the at the end

Happy Birthday and Halloween.
Good move getting a ccdw, I like the crossbreed too, but I carry a lighter gun than the 1911, I get plumbers but easy enough with the plastic gun. LOL If you ever want a close fitting owb holster, the best I've found is Raven Phantom, but I see clones that are cheaper, just cant vouch for them. Companies sell specific stuff for car holsters but I like to tinker in the shop, and really like to modify the mount, on the blackhawk serpa holsters w push button lock. I have mounted these in a few different vehicles over time, some even upside down and no worries if a short stop or midland crash will jar the pistol loose, as opposed to stuffing a gun in the crease of car seats. (ps. these can be used w G-Code Holster co. mounting hardware, or just screwem to something permanent wise).
I leave home once in a blue moon without a pistol, usually a post office visit or to doctor, and always feel bare ass/unprepared. We need more good guys with a gun, everywhere, everyday.

Oh, I have the plumbers butt too. I learned to wear suspenders over the last few months. Without them and this ultra thick leather belt I could never keep the 1911 where it should be.

I'm planning to tinker around a bit myself and find a way to mount holsters in my work van, truck and Jeep. I want it right at my fingertips not buried behind my gut in the seat if I need it. Those are some good ideas I might try.

Congrats

Curious if you registered your GA CWL with your county sheriff's office within 120 days of establishing residency here. See Section B below. I actually have a valid CHL from Texas but failed to follow the instructions of section B, which was the real catalyst for me getting the CCDW. I was planning on doing it anyway to learn the laws, but that KRS section accelerated my schedule.

KRS 237.110
