2. I'm so old I've checked my six gun at the bar.

When me and my buddies went target shooting and chose to have a couple beers afterwards we'd undo our holsters and turn them over for safe keeping behind the bar. Parts of Ohio was wild west for a long time, but even then it was considered polite.

My friends didn't need to carry a Colt 45 to be bad asses back then.
