ok, Im wearing a pair of shorts that I can carry IWB comfortably. These shorts are on the big side even.
Well, the wife and I went to the coffee shop and I had to take use the restroom. luckily, its single occupancy with a lock on the door. but got me to thinking. I didn't have a good way of keeping my shorts up with the pistol pulling them down.
Whats the solution? besides running home when your out and about.

I undo the belt about three notches.  This gives me some support and keeps the holster and gun from flipping over.

I always use the stall. The door locks and I'd rather not be shaking hands with an old friend and have someone try to lift my piece while thats going on.

If I'm just going to piss I use the zipper, and if I have to sit I put it on my shorts in my pants. Your using a belt aren't you?

Yeah, boxers have that slit for a reason.

Yea, I wear a belt when carrying. didn't think about just loosening the belt.

+1 on always using a stall.

#1––Open zipper, use underwear fly (don't loosen belt).

#2––holding pistol/holster, loosen belt, unsnap pants, draw pistol, drop pants, hold pistol in lap until finished. Reverse process when complete.

That's what your fly is for. Put your big boy britches on. When it's time to potty, unzip your fly and either fish Mr. happy out through the fly in the front of your drawers or take your left thumb and pull the elastic band down while you get a grip on the hose with your right hand. That's how grownups pee.

I carry IWB all the time and never have an issue with going the fly route.  Am I missing something here?

the fly route isn't the way I pee normally (dont watch the way others pee).
Just one of those things that become quite evident today.

Seriously?  A "How do you pee?" thread?

Peeing through the fly is not the method endorsed by most A-rate training groups and instructors today. Field experience has suggested that there are better ways to facilitate draw and retract mechanics to reduce time. Buy a DVD, it shows you how. That said, whatever works best for you may NOT work best for the next guy. Figure a solution and train with it every day.

lol, I now have a disturbing mental image of a grownup peeing with his pants and underwear fully down around his ankles in a public restroom like a 3 year old.

yeah, unzip fly, extract equipment, eliminate fluid, repack equipment, **important** zip up fly,  wash hands if in a public restroom,  if in woods avoid pissing on hands,  

life is hard for some!

There was a guy at the place I used to work that did that. It was all kinds of creepy and bizarre.

That is funny. Otherwise the stall advice is spot-on as well.

I'm sorry OP, but that's the funniest thing I've read here in a LONG, long time.



Glad I wasn't drinking milk.

glad I could be of help.
I knew I would catch grief over this subject, but sometimes, you just gotta ask the questions.

Maybe I am the only one that has thought about what to do with their concealed carry piece when they are in a more vulnerable position, but I bet there are others.

Nobody ever considers the proper tactical stance wile shooting one handed with your dick in the other hand pissing. Thanks OP, for making the rest of us aware of lack of training in this area.

I wouldn't know...

I've never taken a "Pee Break"...

... I "Piss"... like a man... standing... using that well crafted slot in the front of my boxers
Who the hell unbuckles to take a piss???... Wait... you do piss while you're standing don't you???

.... please don't tell me you sit down to piss...



EDIT: on a serious note.... I ALWAYS use a stall. I just don't like the feeling of vulnerability when pissing in the open like you are when using a urinal with people walking behind me at their leisure. FUCK THAT NOISE...

PISSING IN STALLS FTW!!!!!!

I usually try to put my weapon side against the wall, but I always figured that, carrying or not, if somebody jumps me while I'm making tinkle, he's gonna get pissed on. If I'm somewhere that I feel a little more on edge, I usually have my unopened pocket knife in the other hand at the urinal. Probably ruin Dirtbag McGee's day when I piss on him and get all stabby before I get my gun out and put my gun back in my pants.

The only time it's an issue for me is deep winter when I'm wearing so many layers I've got to schedule a piss before I actually have to piss.  This occasionally entails unbuckling the belt, but in that instance, I stash the piece in an inner coat pocket beforehand.

In the summer, wearing shorts?  tuck-n-roll, man.  If you haven't mastered the "flip" yet, practice in front of a mirror, just don't let the wife catch you

I guess for winter, I need to take 1/2 a viagra before I go out...

Depending on the shorts you wear, hell if you have a good one just pull it out the bottom and pee!  What is the problem?
10/25/2010 11:05:09 PM EDT
[#35]
I don't undo my pants and belt.  I don't quite get the reasoning behind doing this.  Unzip/unbotton, pull it out, piss, shake off put it back.  No problems of your pants falling down.  Am I missing something here?

And if looking for one less step in the process, go commando.  Then you dont have to worry about "fly fishing" in you underbritches.

For the real men among us just put foot up on the edge of the urinal, toilet, or sink (if thats your thing).  Untuck the tip of your member from your sock and go.
