Well I'll give the broad strokes without going into too much intimate information. Attended a local "artistic performance" at a well known venue with my wife. Have carried into this venue previously with no issues. As we approached the door there was the usual womens purse inspections. This time there was another gentleman wanding patrons. I decided to see how this was going to go.
Arms raised, wand passed up one side and down the other. "Beeeeeeeeeeeep". Police officer running the wand. Tap tap tap on the Kimber with the wand. "Whatcha got there?"
"My personal carry"
"You a cop?"
"Nope".
Sorry, can't bring that in here". Taps on his weapon at his hip. "Don't worry, we gotcha covered".
While preventing myself from blurting out "Oh good! You're going to be sitting in the seat next me at the show!" I simply said, "no problem, be right back".
Locked in the vehicle, went back through his check.
"Enjoy the show."
He didnt go nuts, didnt change his demeanor, and I think handled it very professionally.
End of story.
