Re: Left gun in bathroom
Don't put gun on hook on door...I know of this happening with the result of a glock doing a pin wheel as it kept firing
Someone mentioned the hammock inside the pants....uh got a joke about that, won't say it here.
I carry IWB in a nice holster that is secured to my belt using leather loops with snaps. Gun is retained in the holster and will not fall out. If in multi service stall, don't let pants drop below the bottom of the stall wall, gun rests firmly against side of leg right below knee.
Never have I taken gun off to take care of business, and if I did, the whole holser would come off. Reholstering a weapon is an oppertunity for the trigger to get pulled. The more the gun can stay in the holster, the better.

Re: Left gun in bathroom
i don t use public rest rooms sitting down but if i did i put it in my pants in the crouch area. under my undies between the pants and the undies like a sandwich. pull my paints up over it hosteler between my ankles. no one can see it if they glance under the stall door. If i have to have both hands to pull up my paints weapon goes under my arm pit . But strangely my gun stays in it holster when i pull down my paints it don't come out. when i got it i was worried about retention. I did flips( unloaded) and it stayed in place. I don't put my weapon down ever; The gun is always on my person, just like the marine corps taught me.

Reminds me of the TSA(i think) guy who left his weapon in the bathroom at the airport.

Re: Left gun in bathroom
just hold it.
when it's time to wipe/wash, your underwear acts as a hammock while sitting down. just remember to pick up your gun before standing. been doin' it for years........ try it!

But I thought this one was excellent. She seems to have thoroughly covered the matter.
I imagine more than a few members found this site while searching for this subject.
And for all you guys who don't use public restrooms, Mother Nature might surprise you one day and change your way of thinking.

She has made a lot of videos. She is an excellent representation of our female CHL holders, and a great example for your girlfriends and wives to watch if they are thinking of carrying concealed.
