Default Code Word for CCW

Seen this elsewhere and found it to be interesting. Do any of you have some type of code word that you and your spouse use to talk about your CCW. You can discuss whether or not your packing by using this code word and not alert those around you.

I don't feel "comfortable" tonight. (I'm not packing)

I'm glad your "comfortable" tonight. (Glad you are packing.)

Tuck your shirt in. You look "uncomfortable". (Your pistol needs covered)

You get the idea. I was wondering if any of you do this. I liked the idea, but never gave it any thought before. Was wondering how you all handle this situation out in public or around friends and family

Don't forget to use the "pass and challenge" that goes with the handshake.

If my wife wants to know if I'm carrying she just puts her arm around me and checks if my gun is where it's supposed to be.

For those other than my wife, they don't ask for one of two reasons, 1: They don't know I carry. 2: They know and just assume that I am armed and don't need to ask.

It's actually pretty easy for us when we are in public, as I always carry.

We never thought of something like a code word But I must say I figured it out quick on night at the mall when me and the wife were being followed by 3 gangbangers.

I leaned over and ask her if she noticed them and her reply was.

YES AND I'M NAKED!!!! I figured it out pretty quick!
