I regularly carry my KelTec P3AT, looks like a cell phone in my pocket. It doesn't have a safety, but I don't carry it with a round chambered. I'm in a pretty rural farming area, and there are a lot of migrant workers. With that has brought more burglary type of crime. The standard to do is go knock on all the doors. If nobody answers, they break in. My office is in the front of my house, and I have had this encounter 4 times since living there about 9 years. The last 2 times I have walked out gun in hand. It's interesting, they only turn around and don't even get out of the car. I know what they are there for and so do they. I also have cameras all over my property, so I know when people come and go.
