I am prohibited by work policy to carry a gun on the premises or even in my car outside the building.

Dress code is khakis and a specific color of shirt, I work out on the sales floor directly with customers and I'd like to be able to carry. The way I'm seeing my options right now are pocket carry and ankle holster carry, I'm leaning toward ankle carry but I need some suggestions on what guns I might want to try out. I need something that isn't going to draw attention or print because my job is at stake if it does.

If I ever have to use the gun I'm fine with losing my job over losing my life.
>>
>>34263253
Where do you work that is dangerous enough to risk losing your job just to carry?
>>
Pocket carry a small 380 like an LCP.
Do not ankle carry! When you sit down your pant legs will rise up, and the gun will be exposed.
With a proper holster (like the kydex hickock approved Alabama pocket holsters), it will just look like you have a phone/ wallet in your pocket.

Not to mention, drawing from a pocket is a lot less conspicuous than getting on one knee and drawing from the ankle

There has probably never been a robbery or even an assault in your store. Youre an idiot if youre willing to risk your job for a situation that will almost certainly never happen.

Just start open carrying. If anyone says anything to you start screaming about the Constitution and how the post office is run by freemasons. You have to be assertive in a situation like that.

Put all that other shit in a locker or leave it in your car. Ankle holsters are shit, pocket carrying something small is your only real option.

I had a co-worker who did this exact thing.

We worked at a cell phone store, and while normally pretty chill, there would occaisionally be a customer who would freak out over the the fact their phone was turned off (for non-payment), or they broke their phone and discovered they weren't getting a new iphone for free. People would just lose their minds, and it could get a bit dicey.

Anyway, he carried a Glock 27 in an ankle holster. Only he and I knew, because I was also a gun nut, and wouldn't narc him out.

Side note, I was called in front of HR once over gun stuff. Kinda sucked.

Honestly if you're going to break company policy, just get a clip holster and take the gun off and into your glovebox before work. You'll still be armed, save for the infentisimally small chance you are assaulted at work, and you'll have more dakka on hand if you need it. Way less of a chance of being found out with no real downside

I wonder how the management would react if you requested a discussion on the topic of firearms. Or at least asked them to look the other way if its a liability insurance thing. In which case someone should sue the insurance companies for infringing on the 2a. They wouldnt increase the premium if fags worked there because of higher chance of aids.

My girlfriend and her boss where having a discussion and she mentioned she just got her conceal pistol permit. He said "im so proud of you for doing that, just so you know company policy is that we cant carry but in case shit hits the fan theres at least 6 people here that I know who carry"

Unfortunately itd never slide. As much as it should. You see people can put gun owners through the fucking ringer but god forbid an illegal immigrant with a criminal record gets deported. What people dont realize is if we play this game where we can take away rights so long as a big group of people agree to it we can take away any rights. Gun owners are not a majority, blacks are not a majority, gays are not a majority, muslims are not a majority but America has this political system where a majority can put restrictions and rules on a minority whether its constitutional or not.
>>
>>34263849
So its blacks vs everyone else (everyone else usually being a bunch of random minorites whose only similarity is that they dont care about black rights). And gun owners vs the general public and gays vs the general public. The general public is everyone minus the minority youre attacking and the minority will obviously always be smaller than the general public. Shit keeps me up at night.
>>
>>34263787
Gays are extremely more prone to comtracting aids because of the high probability of drawing blood during butt sex. You can actually have vaginal sec with someone who has aids and be fine if no blood contact is made. When you start the 7th grade this fall youll learn this.

Or just have the skills and savings to find another job. I can honestly say I'd have no worries if I was fired or my employer dissolved tomorrow. With that in mind, the small risk of being fired because I'm seen carrying outweighs the (admittedly smaller) risk I'll need to defend my life.

I've been pocket carrying a kahr p380 for a while now and I'm pretty confident with it. A small cartridge is better than no cartridge and at indoor ranges I know I can put multiple rounds where they need to go.

Before you come back at me saying that "well, the employer denied entry to everyone carrying guns, so you're infringing on their property rights by carrying in spite of their instructions," my response to this argument is that 1) you have a right to lie to someone who is trying to deny you your rights, and 2) it is not within a property owner's rights to invade your personal space (i.e., to look for a gun under your clothes). Logically, concealed-carry trumps property rights 100%.

You do have a right to defend your life by whatever means available, and if you are allowed onto a person's property with a concealed firearm, then you are within your rights to carry on their property.

You arent allowed on their property with a weapon. They say specifically not to bring one. If you dont like it, youre free to stay off their property.
>>
>>34264910
Unless they post a sign saying no weapons allowed on the front door, you are expressly able to carry on that property. They can stipulate that you cannot have a weapon while you work there as part of the clause of being hired, but you have committed no crime in carrying anyways. They can only fire you unless there's a sign on the door.

Congrats, you might know a little about gun laws in one state. But in many states, those things do carry the force of law and they can easily fire you over breaching company policy.
>>
>>34264910
I'll give you a couple examples to illustrate the "right to lie" that I mentioned, because this is important.

Let's say that you were the son of a Congressman (or some other other famous or rich person) and a shady looking group of people in a van pulled up next to you, asking you if you're the son of that Congressman. Are you obligated to tell those people who you are?

Another example, this time a little more blatant. Let's say that a man pulls a gun on you and says "give me all your money." You happen to be carrying two wallets. In your first wallet is your driver's license, credit cards and some cash. In the second wallet, which is carried inside your underwear, is the deed to your house, for some reason. You give the man your main wallet and he asks "Do you have any other wallets?" Are you obligated to tell him about your other wallet?

Third example is the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution: "No person...shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself." People are protected in court against losing their rights by being compelled to tell the truth. Since there is no immediate threat on your rights (there is due process) in court, this doesn't go so far as to mention the right to lie, but it's very close to the same thing.

1/2
>>
>>34264910
2/2

The point I'm getting at is that there is such a thing as a right to preserve one's rights against unjust infringement by giving false information. It may not be formally recognized in all laws yet, or clearly defined in legal language in any one place, but it is there in some form.

Clearly there is a conflict of two rights that appears to happen in the example of accessing private property while carrying a gun when the property owner doesn't want guns on his property. The key distinction is that the property owner's right to "deny people with guns from his property" comes from his right to deny other people from ENTRY to his property - not to deny other people of their rights to carry guns while on his property. He can only ask people to leave his property, not ask people already on his property from carrying. Now this distinction IS enshrined in legal language. In every state that has provisions in carry law for property owners to deny carry on their property, they MUST ask the party carrying a gun to leave first.

As for,
>If you dont like it, youre free to stay off their property.
An employment contract is one thing, but the conversation has moved to any private property, indicating a store or other establishment. The property owner must inform people very clearly and obviously in order for it to be considered trespassing to enter the property with a concealed weapon, and even in those cases, all it is is trespassing. You're not violating some sort of "sovereign decree" against carrying guns. Property owners do not have the right or authority to deny other people of their right to carry, only to ask trespassers to leave their property.

Even with employment contracts, terminating you from your job for violating a contract is not the same as terminating you from your job for carrying a gun, and based on the arguments I presented, I think that it's only a matter of time before no carry clauses of employment contracts are expressly made illegal.

>>Unless they post a sign saying no weapons allowed on the front door, you are expressly able to carry on that property.
>False

honestly curious here: wouldn't the property owner (or representative of the company) be able to just kick you out? Does someone saying 'no guns allowed' make it illegal automatically?
>>
>>34265882
Many people would interpret a clear "no guns" sign at the front door as informing you not to enter the premises if you are carrying a gun, so doing so in spite of instruction not to means you're trespassing. The distinction is that you're not allowed to be there because the owner doesn't want YOU there. Not because carrying a gun is illegal there. It's generally treated as a civil offense if you don't leave when asked directly by the owner.

Post offices and other federal buildings are different because carrying actually is illegal there, as per federal code, although it really shouldn't be.

The ankle holster will be notice the second you sit down. It is also the most useless of all the carry options. are you going to ask the black guy robbing you to wait while you get on one knee to fix your shoe? do you think the grocery store robber will not see you getting on your knee and raising your pants to reach for something.

placing your gun on literally the furthest spot away from your hand grantees you will not be able to use it in a real situation. you are better of carrying it in front of your genitals. at least this way it will make your package look bigger.

>>34263253
I was debating between these two carry methods about two years ago when being armed became a principle for me rather than just a thing I did when I was "allowed" to. My dress code is the same as yours at the retail store I work at. In the end I decided to do both pocket and ankle carry (S&W 340 in an Alabama Holster pocket holster and Glock 26 in a Galco ankle glove.) I see a lot of merit in doing both if you can't carry iwb. The pocket gun is easier to get to standing up, but I've found that the ankle gun is actually easier to get to from some positions on the ground and I can carry a higher capacity, more shootable gun on my ankle. If I had to choose one method I would probably go pocket, but it would be a tough choice. Just choose your pants accordingly for either. I've never once been scared that either of my gun's would be seen by a coworker since I started carrying at work

If you do decide to ankle carry I recommend buying a holster for whatever your dominant hand is, which is meant to be worn on the inside of your non-dominant leg, but wearing it on the inside of your dominant leg with the grip facing forward at about 1:00-2:00. It's much more natural to draw from that position than traditional ankle carry IMO, and it's much much easier to draw from that position one-handed
>>
As someone in a similar situation to the OP, I ended up using a 5.11 shirt.

Draw is slow but it is great deep concealment and infinity more accessible and well retained than a ankle holster.

Emt here.

I work in the middle of crack/hooker town. Not allowed to carry via policy. I carry anyways after some psycho started biting my side-view mirror, took a swing at my partner, then ran to a group of people telling them we were trying to kill them.

Lcp, pocket holster goes great with 5.11 pants. So many pockets.
>>
>>34263253
Pocket carry is generally more comfortable and SIGNIFICANTLY faster to draw.

Most subcompact pistols can be pocket carried comfortably and discretely in any number of holsters, with one of the best ones (Desantis Nemesis) running around $35.
