I did a search for this but couldn't find the topic.
I was out getting coffee with some friends last night, I noticed a table of 3 younger guys (24-28) two of them where printing, one much worse than the other. When I say printing I mean the kind that scares me. I could see more than just the Butt of the gun but the slide as well... it was a 1911 of some kind (later found out Kimber full size)
Do you say something? Do you slide them a note? Do you ignore it? What is the etiquette here? Usually when I see someone carrying it is because they cant stop fidgeting, adjusting or checking it. I know I would like someone to tell me...
There where a couple road blocks though, I was with a large group of people only one of which knows I carry, and there where 3 of them only 2 I know where carrying.
What if it was a job interview and I say something now he can't get the job or a date, or some similar situation.
It all ended up working out, I was to the bathroom and while inside he walked in, we had a chance to chat. He and his friend just got there lic's and where using kydex holsters with tec-locs, I told him that was great range gear but they may want to rethink for CC. I'm no expert on gear (still using OWB Galco) and probably more likely to see a fellow CC'r than the average citizen but it was bad.
Thoughts?
if its legal for them to carry leave them alone its there right

I had occasion just today to mention something like this to someone who turned out to be a LEO (Hey...this IS New Jersey!). Anyway, the muzzle of his Smith (I later learned) was poking out from under his light jacket. I smiled at him, said "Hi...how ya doin'", and followed it up by pointing out, gently, "'Scuze me, but your slip is showing." while nodding toward his hip. He got the idea immediately and covered up, but it got the point across with a touch of humor.
Is there anything wrong with printing? I'd figure it's just like open carry.
Please excuse this ignorant sounding questions, but...is printing when you can see the outline of the weapon through the shirt or the bottom of the weapon is showing?
Yes, and the only kind of ignorant question is one that is not asked...
