Packing a Pistol

(extract from SDWA Newsletter March 1965)

Gentlemen Beware!

If the wife or girlfriend should ever suddenly produce a large calibre revolver from the neck of her blouse, pretend not to be surprised. This latest idea has popped up from Johannesburg, where a gun expert has designed a holster which fits snugly at the side of my-lady's brassiere. In a test a woman was able to draw and fire in three seconds. Most of us have heard about the quick-draw cowboys firing too quickly and ending up with a bullet in the leg. Any accidents with this holster would be even more deflating. You may not be able to detect these pistol packing mammas as it is claimed that the bustline remains unchanged, but how a woman is going to stick a revolver down the side of her bra and not look a trifle lopsided is to be wondered.
