Dropped my carry pistol when I got out of the car tonite. It's a tool nothing special but others cringe.

How long did it take you to search 1911 Kimber TRP grips, from the point of impact until hitting enter?
I fucked up the finish on my TLE slide while field stripping the gun in my truck like an idiot 8 months ago ad it still bothers me, and will until I send it to WC to refinish. |

At least it was you who caused the damage.
One of the many times my kimber was in for repair they dropped it on concreate fucking the slide up big time and they boxed it right up and sent it back to me.

Back when I first got into guns, my very first handgun purchase was a brand new HK USP .40 when they first hit the market.
I proceeded to carry it in a cheap ass shoulder holster made of nylon and empty promises. Walking into blockbuster video in Portland, Oregon one night and the damn thing fell out of the holster and dropped on the concrete. The family of liberal, kale eating, hemp wearing hipsters that saw it happen had the most horrified look on their faces that I've ever seen. I felt stupid, but kinda glad I made some liberal heads explode when I calmly picked it up, re-holstered it, and walked into the video store. 
Haven't dropped a gun since. Important lesson learned: Spend a few bucks and get a decent holster. And don't carry in a shoulder holster. Miami vice was just a TV show.. |

Sorry that happened. Mind telling us how it fell out? I carry AIWB every day and I can't fathom a situation short of a crazy rollercoaster ride where it would ever fall out. Not judging......just curious.

If getting out of the car is sufficient to dislodge your weapon from the holster, you need new carry gear ASAP.

how did you accidentally drop it getting out of your car? With a good holster you should be able to do cartwheels and not lose your piece. Were you lap carrying or something
