I wear my gnome at 4:00 in a Milt Sparks IWB holster. I've found that it conceals very well under a parka.

I'm a sloppy gnome-slinger, have to admit. With an itching tossing-finger.

My experience with gnomes is that, while they're a good man-stopper, they're a pain to clean.

The little guy really dosen't like it when I shove a solvent-soaked patch up his bum.

Next the socialist Brits will ban the use of garden gnomes for self-protection. Can't have any burglars harmed, you know... Burglary in London has now reached epidemic levels and street crimes are rampant. Whatta place to live! Scary!
