Under what circumstances would you use your firearm?
To carry concealed in warm weather, google Tommy Gun packs. They look like fanny packs and come in a varity of colors, sizes and configerations. Besides, what tourist in Florida don't have fanny packs. I am old, I look like a tourist, what a cover right. Also with some of the pocket pistols that are available today, they fit in your pocket in a pocket holster, leave no print and are easy to get to if needed.

I would only use my firearm to protect myself, my loved one or someone who was being violently attacked in my presense. Otherwise, if I or my family are not in danger, I would back away from the situation, grab that wonderful invention call the cell phone, call 911 and let the professionals handle the situation. Now on the other hand if you are smashing in my door or window at night and attempting to gain entry to my home, you are placing yourself in extreme danger. Besides being ankle chewed by my mini doxie, you would have to face my enraged wife for messing up her window/door and brother, let me tell you that is one thing that you would want to avoid at all costs.
