[QUOTE="Zowert, post: 4291365, member: 71957"] I conceal carry when I’m off the clock. Not to feel macho or anything like that. It’s simply because the area in which I live has seen a lot of violence lately. As an RPCD, if I was given the choice to carry (concealed) on the clock I most certainly would not. As much as I’d like to it’s just not a good idea when you’re as physically active as we are. Even the most comfortable conceal carry holsters are going to start nagging you after 12 hours of fast paced labor. It will be near impossible to carry concealed in nothing but shorts and a t shirt during those hot summer months, a time when violence is at its peak. Also you have to think about the liability of it. A pistol on your person, even in condition one, is opening yourself up for a lot of mishaps that otherwise wouldn’t be possible when you’re unarmed. Open carry in a good retention holster would be the only comfortable and safe way to arm UPS drivers. But that would look ridiculous and it would likely scare some customers away and create problems for the drivers who deliver to firearm free zones and businesses. [/QUOTE]
