every morning before work, i dress up with the p99 IWB trying different positions around my waste with different shirts and tucks. alas, the time comes to leave and i must remove it because i do not yet have the permit to carry. i dont think puttering around the house is a real world environment and was wondering if i should buy an airsoft replica of the p99, weight it down to the same level when loaded and practice with that in public. wind gusts, vehicle entry, sudden sprints, boating, etc... just to see if any odd combinations of movement will uncover the weapon. i know they go over basic concealment and holsters in the coarse and i've been reading all the top forums but everyman's shape is different and i've already found that some of the classic carry positions print noticeably on me. i'm just wondering what would happen if i ever get pulled over and had to explain quickly that i have a fake gun for ccw practice. or what if someone did make the gun, freaked and made the call to 911...
i think i understand what brandishing means and i know it would be considered a real gun untill the moment of disarmement should i ever be discovered. if all goes well, that will never happen but being pulled over would be a real problem. don't for one moment think i would ever pull a fake gun out and brandish it. i may be a fool, but i'm no idiot.
or am i ? really.. is this whole practice idea idiotic?
remember this is just to test holsters and techniques in the real world and to see if i need a different gun to make this work. also, if the gun comes out of the holster and hits the ground, it's a toy that broke, not my expensive walther.
p.s. ( i fumbled the mag release the first day i had the gun and when it hit the kitchen floor (empty) the plastic broke into bits. i almost got rid of the weapon that day for lack of trust in durability.)
edited to add that i live in so-cal if that makes a difference.
