Old Gear Still Works?
As I’ve said more than once, I’m old and fat. This means that the “high speed” gear of a younger, fitter, person doesn’t work for me. If I were to try an appendix carry, my Done-Lapped-Over would totally block access to my firearm. I wear a belt to keep my pants up. No belt and…
