I was wearing a belly band holster that day at the pumpkin farm festival when I was throwing a football at one of the games my extra mag fell out and hit the dirt . just as that mag hit the dirt so did my gut I immediately looked left and right and noticed nobody had noticed. Suffice to say I'm not wearing that belly band anymore. Any body else had any cc whoopsie daisys ?
 
While no gun ooops, I carry a karambit on my belt. Last summer when I took my family to the Krieger barrel factory, my youngest son wanted me to lift him up for a better view of one of the machines. When I let him down, something caugh the finger hole and pulled it out of the sheath and it pinged on the ground. Tod’s eyes got big, I picked it up and put it back and nothing was said, we went on with our walk around.

Far be it from me to preach, but you need diet, exercise, and perhaps gastric stapling.
 
The average person is oblivious to what's going on. I walked through a crowded restaurant with a 1911 uncovered (accidentally). Waited 20 minutes in the parking lot for the cops to show; never did.
Might have thought you were a detective. They walk around here all the time in plain clothes with only their gun showing and an unmarked car

No CCW oopsies here in the 11 years I've been doing it. But I've always used proper holsters, belts, and mag carriers.
That's the only oops I've had and its because i had the mag carrier at an angle for smoother draw instead of straight up. Learned my mistake real quick
 
I was wearing a short sleeve bowling shirt walking the outlets in Ghettysburg one blustery summer day . Along comes a stiff gust of wind lifting my shirt exposing an open top double mag pouch with mags . A guy walking towards me sees it and gives me some serious stink eye . Nothing more . The way I see it is my Second Amendment protects all of pissy face's other rights . Not to mention that me and my carry piece potentially protect pissy face's ass .
 
I remember back in the eighties a retired LEO friend owned a shooting range / gun store. IPSIC was really growing and being shot at several local clubs so he decided he start a league. It grew to about 70 shooters with several LEO's participating and we had a ball. On the last night we had a fun shoot on a Hogan's alley and as you finished you were told to put our gun away and go upstairs to a large meeting room for awards and pizza and beer. During the festivities I was upstairs eating and talking with the manager when I noticed this guy right behind him had his foot up on a metal folding chair drinking a beer with a cocked 45 in his belt above his right rear pocket. By now others also starting to noticed it and were kind of gawking at it.

The manager said it's okay he's a deputy and then thought better and turned and asked him to put the gun away as it was making people nervous. Unbelievably, the guy said its okay it's not loaded and reached around pulling the pistol partially out of his belt and dropped the hammer. My buddy was right up against his right shoulder and I was about six feet away and now deaf but I could tell by the look on the deputy’s face the round did some damage as it traversed his ass, went through the chair, and disappeared in the floor. The manager and I looked at each other and without saying a word he helped the deputy and I ran downstairs to see where it went! I was half sick as I ran because I knew some of the guys were down there shopping and hanging out in the store.

Fortunately, the round came through the ceiling and buried itself in a steel display shelving unit about ten feet from a guy.

You should have just smiled and told him that It only protects you and yours and that Mr. Pissy Face will be all on his own. Offering to buy him a rape whistle might have been a bit over the top.
 
Local swat team asked to use a building we owned to do some unique room clearing training, wifey stands next to the personnel vehicle, last one out says 'oh shit' .......while exiting the truck bent over he popped his glock outta his leg rig and was chasing it across our parking lot.

I eat breakfast at a small town mom & pop place during the week. I usually carry OWB about 4 o'clock. I went to the bathroom one morning and when I pull my pants up my shirt got behind my pistol. I walked back to the table and I could see one guy looking at my side and realized my gun was exposed. I just pulled my shirt up to cover it and acted like nothing was wrong. The guy that saw it never said a word.
 
I had a Beretta fall out once and I dribbled that damn thing on the sidewalk until I got it back under control. NOT a fan of that shit. I wasn't carrying it, it wasn't in a rig or anything I just had my hands full. Don't make the mistake anymore.

I would agree on people being oblivious.

I went to a wedding a few months ago open carrying a 1911 on my right side and a double mag pouch on my left... nobody said a word one way or the other except one friends wife who asked "what are those things on your left side" "extra magazines for the gun on my right hip"... she hadnt noticed the full size 1911 on my right hip...

While living in massachusetts and returning from an IDPA event I stopped at the grocery store at the request off you know who. While reaching for a bag of chips my shirt lifted and the lady next to me made a gasping panic sound. I honestly thought something was happening bad. When I turned to her it was all she could say, "Is that a gun?" Me, "Yup Glock 19 and I am a good guy." She was a little nervous to say the least, she asked a couple of questions regarding lawful carry etc. I did a quick explanation and after she seemed interested in pursuing her 2nd Amendment rights. I am old and guess I presented a grampa image.Now here in Virginia almost W Virginia, conceal, open, all normal for the time being.
