I don't carry at work, but do carry to work, and from, and all other times, except:
a. While intentionally immersed in water
b. While sleeping, in which case a Kahr PM45 is under my pillow, an 870 is at the headboard, and and M4 is sleeping next to me.
That's about it!
Regarding firearms and water..... I've been known to put my field stripped Colt stainless .45 in the dishwasher, and always put the Ruger Old Army in the dishwasher when through shootin'. The Kahr PM's have been in one of my pockets while out riding, and gotten caught in the rain. I been soaked for a full day, gotten into a hotel room and just peeled off my soaked clothes, given the PM45 a bit of a drying down and thats the worst its been for the wear.
And..... btw, you can take a little wad of hotel kleenex, and shove it down a .45 barrel with one of those freebie hotel imprinted pens, and it dries 'em out just like shovin' a tampon up your nose for a nosebleed. Unlike a nosebleed, you can get a little SAE-50 from your ride's dipstick, and shove a second little wad of kleenex through the barrel as a preservative, if you feel so inclined. I am so inclined. However, the same preservative in your nose tends to make the world smell like a Harley shop for days.... not altogether bad, but it has no real preservative qualities.
