Enough with crapping on the vest.

And here we go again.

1. The Classic Concealed Carry Fishing Vest
The classic concealed carry vest is a classic staple of the old-school concealed carriers. I can’t tell you how many guys I have met over the years at the range who religiously wear their carry vest all the time. Back in the early 2000s, when carrying concealed was relatively new, it was a great way to conceal a medium to large handgun on your body. The concealed carry fishing vest was really a victim of its own success. So many people used them early on that it became the trademark look for someone concealing a firearm.

I guess I keep repeating till I go facial purple that non-gun people simply do not understand or figure out that a carry vest indicates somebody carrying concealed. That you as a gun person figure it out is irrelevant unless you are an asshole that for shit and giggles are going to call the cops on a fellow gun owner.

And I can repeat myself once again saying I have been using a vest since I started carrying over 2 decades ago without being challenged about it other than asking me if I am going fishing (answer always was “Yes!”) and I usually spent half my hours away from home in rabidly anti-gun Broward County.

But I got the the best way to describe how people truly do not care or notice the carry vest when I moved to Tennessee and saw Open Carry folks mingling around the public and nobody noticed! Somehow the non-gun people that is absent minded enough not to observe a big honking 1911 strapped to the side  of a person standing in front of them at the register in the local Kroger’s is gonna is crap a brick if they see you wearing a vest.

And I guess we shall revisit this issue again in the future. Probably after Winter.

And it got the scope

At the end of the day, I went with the SIG Whiskey3, 4-12X40mm BDC-1 and the SIG rings.

Some of you had recommended to go that magnification and then I got a fantastic deal directly from SIG Optics for both well under the $200 limit and I could not pass that up.

And no the scope is not properly mounted. I just set it for pic purposes and I will have my BiL do the dirty work sometime next week…. well, he did volunteer of sorts.

Report to follow.

Here is my Congregational question

Some oil executives were questioned on Congress.

These were some of the exchanges:

In reality, Chevron may have broken the law by firing white men to use layoffs to boost diversity.

ConocoPhillips hired executives to boost diversity and inclusion.

The big oil and gas companies have donated to BLM, conduct “anti-racism” training on their employees, and waste huge sums of money on diversity initiatives.

The oil industry has gone woke at the Executive level.

And still the Squad burns them in Congress.

So here is my question:

Was it worth it?

Was all the money wasted on going woke worth it?

Did if buy you any good will?

Do you feel like Leftist in Congress cut you any slack because you fired white men on rigs extracting oil and hired minorities for make-work office jobs about diversity and inclusion, and environmental justice?

Because as a conservative who believes in energy independence, I want a robust oil and gas industry that bolsters the American economy.

But as a conservative, I hate the fuck out of Wokeness.

So while I should be your best ally, I also want to watch you go broke for going woke.

You fed the crocodile your left arm and now realize it’s not satiated and wants to eat the rest of you, and because of your actions your former friends don’t want to save you from the crocodile.

So I’ll ask you again, was going woke worth it?
