I saw a lady walking through a Target parking lot with her keys in one hand and her other hand tucked inside her purse which was carried cross body style. I can't be 100% positive but it looked like she had her hand on a gun inside her purse.

It looked like she was on high alert. :thumbs2:

Um...er...which Target exactly?

CompVest wrote:Purse carry is an excellent option. It's ONLY drawback is that it isn't attached to the body through belt loops. However, it can be carried cross shoulder in front of the body with fairly adequate security.

On the plus side, the presentation of the gun is very quick form a holster. (Quicker than a lot of CHL holders can draw from their strong side holsters. The gun can be fired from within the holster for even quicker use. Women will be far more likely to carry their gun with them. Purses offer a wide range of sizes to choose from allowing a wide range of gun options. It allows a covert way to keep the hand on the gun when needed without anyone being the wiser. Try resting your hand on your gun in a strong side holster when walking in a parking lot covertly! It isn't very easy to do but it is with a purse carry.

Again purse carry is a reasonable carry option for women and for many it is their best option. Purse carry like every other carry option does need some training and some practice to be proficient.
Hmmm...I did forget the argument that I could easily shoot through my purse if I needed to. And ditto about being able to covertly keep my hand on my gun in my purse. No one even looks at me funny.

I suggest http://www.corneredcat.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for a woman's perspective on carrying. Both you and your bride can learn a lot from reading it.

Also, if you're anywhere close to Houston, the PSC (Pearland Shooting Club) range (http://www.psc-range.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) has a ladies-only class on the first Saturday of every month.
:iagree: And provided there's not some sort of frog strangling rain, I'm going to be out there this Saturday. My trigger finger is itchy!!

Re: Where do you Ladies carry?

Tough question to answer simply, I'm afraid. I carry where I can...depends on the gun, depends on the clothes, depends on the occasion. I understand some of the reluctance for purse carry, but sometimes, at least for me, it's absolutely necessary.
