Faux pas
Tactical Pants Operator Error
Someone needed a box opened. So I stuck my hand in one of the many pockets of my tactical pants to get a blade and handed them a Kel-Tec magazine instead. Oops.
Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.

No doubt this was followed by PSH, SWAT, Bomb Squad, psych evals, termination…
Wait? You live in a Free State?
Nevermind!

If you get back to God, this kind of thing won’t happen. You are still in Tennessee, correct?

I too have managed to pull the wrong item out of my pants at the wrong time. Embarrassing!

Rats, I was expecting a story about rule 4 and explosive emasculation.

And what did we learn? Right, don’t keep magazines/ammo and knives in your pockets.
I have seen more things stuffed into pistols and shotguns that were not magazines or ammo–chapsticks, suckers, knives, and even a lighter in an 870.
Ammo belongs on belts. Knives are out of pockets.

some of us don’t dress like ninjas at the office.

I’ve heard of several people answering their magazine when they heard ringing from the pocket.
On a hot day I tied my jacket around my waist and dropped two bianchi speed strips on the ground. Oops.

Could’ve been worse…
August 26th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
Ninjas? Your suit jacket covers the magazines. What’s the problem?
August 26th, 2010 at 1:23 pm
that i don’t wear a jacket at my desk.
August 26th, 2010 at 1:45 pm
Weer’d, At least they didn’t answer the Kel-Tec!

This is why I refuse to wear pants with more that 1 zipper. Just sayin’ Things happen.

Ewww! POCKET FUZZ in the magazine! Ewwww!
I have a nice leather knife holster, which just happens to hold a Kel-Tec P3AT magazine. If you were to get down at Mr. Happy level to peer at my belt, you MIGHT see that the knife holster doesn’t contain a knife, but otherwise, no one knows but I.
BTW, after treating your magazine to a Pocket Fuzz ride, I hope you regularly blow it out with some canned air. I keep a can of it on my bathroom counter just for this reason. I also blow off the fuzz on the P3AT every few days.

My washing machine always suffer from bullets…and gun parts left in my pockets…..
August 26th, 2010 at 5:14 pm
I too have answered my magazine when it rang.
August 26th, 2010 at 5:19 pm
Open a box with that and youll…….start a fire.

“I too have answered my magazine when it rang.”
Ever try to stuff a cell phone in your Glock?
Even when I pocket carried, I’d keep the spare mag in a belt pouch. Most people take no notice, and those who do probably think it’s a phone or some such.

lyle, at blackwater, i tried to stuff a blackberry into a Para.
August 26th, 2010 at 6:24 pm
It would have been more embarrassing if it had been a magazine for a Lorcin.
August 26th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
Hey, don’t rip those pants, I saw that article, ordered three pairs, and they are great. I’m wearing them right now in the office, so minus the filled magazine.
August 26th, 2010 at 8:41 pm
I bet Robb Allen doesn’t have that problem.
August 26th, 2010 at 9:11 pm
Could be worse, I guess. Could have been the firearm itself :).

I have an odd shaped cell phone that is just about the same size and shape as a double stack 9mm or .45 magazine. For a while I took to putting a double magazine carrier on my belt and using one side for the cell phone. I stopped because the design of the thing was such that it chaffed my fat shapes whenever I was sitting in my car. Fortuneately, I never tried to answer the spare mag from the other side of the carrier or stuff the cell phone into my gun. Mostly because I could imagine it happening so I was careful about it.

Maybe they need a cell phone shaped like a magazine … or a blade? Too funny.
