Open Carry T-Shirt – I’m Both Appalled And Amazed

Setting the bar real high for derpy gun related t-shirts:

Open-Carry-TShirt-1

Open-Carry-Tshirt-2When I was sent a link to the site selling these I burst out into laughter.  First off, the design itself is absolutely retarded, and looks like complete garbage.  Secondly the website fittingly is at that exact same level.  Then I noticed they had a Facebook page and I thought “hahah I’m going to click that link and see 2 or 3 likes on a sad lonely page”…. NOPE… 5000+ likes and numerous customer pictures and positive comments from across the USA.  Wow… just wow.  Good for them I guess haha.

What a great way to agitate the public and waste the time of the police in some of the lesser gun friendly areas.

I almost wasn’t going to write this post because the thought popped into my mind that I might alienate potential ENDO Apparel customers.  Then I checked myself and realized that although both of our t-shirts are in the same price range, no one that likes my brand is going to be derpy enough to go anywhere such a terrible looking t-shirt as the one in this post.  I’ve seen better looking firearm related t-shirts at gas stations.

Thoughts?  Would buy? haha

  1. Being a Californian, I would rather have my ENDO Apparel shirts with just messages/pictures versus appearing to carry a firearm. This just might end up getting someone shot out here.

  2. In his Endo Cave, Mike sits and broods…..’Why didn’t I think of that design!?’

    1. agreed…the insecurity in his hate of the design is obvious

      1. You guys beat me to it…
        It’s okay Mike, I’m sure they won’t dig too deeply into any of your potential profits.

        1. coming soon the endo double shoulder holster’d deagles t shirt.

          1. dammit, should have read further down, mikes already printing these.

    They sell. Good for them. Your criticism is not deserved and simply displays jealousy.

    1. This, +10.

      You got me, I’m so jelly. Double shoulder holster + double IWB printed Deagle brand Deagle t-shirt coming soon.

  4. I’ve seen dumber shirts

  5. Why did the libertarian chicken cross the road?
    THAT’S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. AM I BEING DETAINED?

  6. I am like “meh”.

    But I do like the fact that someone thought of an idea that would sell, put the time in, made the product (however derpy I may feel that it is) and marketed it to an “obviously wider-than-I-would-have-thought” crowd.

    Capitalism in progress.

  7. At least they come in 3X so if I did want one, I could actually have one that fits.
    Sure wish all clothing sites (cough,cough) would offer clothes in above average sizes.

      haha possibly someday. I’d have to get them custom made though because American Apparel doesn’t make past 2XL.

      1. which is funny as americans dont coming in many sizes below 2xl if you believe the news

      2. Hopefully soon, there are several designs I would be willing to pay extra for in a larger size. For what its worth its not becouse I’m overweight, just 6’5 and 285lbs, I can fit in a 2X but it causes me to print way too much.

    2. And they ship internationally at a not too bad rate.

    Markedguardian probably liked it 4999 times.

  11. I just wear a sholder holster with an actual firearm.

    1. *shoulder

  12. I think this is a classic case of “U mad, bro?”

  13. I’m with Mike on this one. The shirt sucks. It’s tacky and makes us look stupid. Just because something is popular doesn’t mean it’s good.

    So the guy who runs a blog where he shamelessly plugs his own novelty t-shirts at every turn and features any video of anybody wearing said t-shirt is ragging on other novelty t-shirts.

    1. ^+1^

      +1 … and I’m looking forward to seeing a pic of you in your new open carry t-shirt! I’ll even add it to this post.

        The thought of pissing away $30 aside, I’m sure said pic would NEVER be the target of satire or trolling should it be put into your hands. If I wanted my mug on the internet, I would put it somewhere that it would be seen.

  15. Personally, meh. I wouldn’t wear it.

    But the thought of about thousands of college students wearing it to classes…… Priceless.

    Look, who’s derpy now? Waste of time for police in some of the less gun friendly areas? I believe the whole purpose of this shirt (I’m one of the 5000+, btw) is to rid ourselves of the “less gun friendly areas.”

    Less Gun Friendly Area = Constitution Free Zone

    I didn’t buy one, but the message is clear. You unwittingly pointed it out for us… Thank you.

      *Yawn* Whether you like it or not, in 2013 that’s what’s still happening. Good troll attempt though.

        Commenting on a thread is a troll attempt?

        Actually I was looking for one of those “Am I Being Detained” shirts, black with white lettering. The Google search landed me here. Go figure.

    I wish they had one with an UZI across the front. It would be great at Soccer games and shopping at Walmart.
