I was the same when I first got my permit all those years ago. I was 21, just bought a 1911 and wanted the freedom to carry concealed. Then the gun got heavy and I didnt think I always needed it. Plus I was in school so I couldnt carry on campus. Before I knew it I only carried on special occasions or trips to the range. Now I have smaller, lighter guns so there is no excuse. I try to carry every time I leave my house, even to do yard work. I manage to keep it at about 95%. just cuz I can.
I don't think carrying all the time is necessary. I wouldn't take it to the grocery store for instance or out on a walk in the neighborhood. Most every household in my neighborhood has some kind of firearm. Most of the time when out on walk people carry knives or a be good stick. It is a quiet neighborhood though and times are a changing so I might need to review. It's kind of like a drivers license, just cause you have one doesn't mean you have to be in the car all the time.
Great thoughts bro. I carry everyday. It feels weird if it's not on me like I forgot my wallet an that only happens when I'm flyin somewhere or going to a govt building or something. I have friends that waffle but I just chalk it up to your thoughts exactly, some people just aren't into I and that's ok.
When I was a kid I used to conceal carry a condom in my wallet. I've always assumed a lot of people get a concealed carry permit for the same reason, you never know when you're gonna need it. The armed guy who took nut boy down in the Giffords case wasn't going to her rally, he ws there for something else, that happens a lot.
Thanks for your input lambdog,I failed to look at it from the interest angle,I don't want to be a nag to them,the guy I discussed in the vid was the advocate of our group getting CHL's to begin with. Im thinking its my turn to advocate a higher percent of carry,just on a low key level & not sound like im preaching to them. No matter how it plays out,they're like Family to me and i'll respect their decision.

With the rise of gang issues in my area, the only place I do not carry now is in the sanctuary at church :)
