Concealed Carry Restroom

So, you're out running around town, and nature calls. You're too far to go back home, and you really need to cop a squat. What do you do with your gun to keep it secure, and make sure you don't leave it behind (it has happened)?

I carry IWB, with a good fitting holster and a sturdy belt. For me, I just bring my pants to the knees and keep my knees apart just enough to hold the weapon firmly in place. This keeps the weapon from falling to the floor and keeps it above the bottom of the door. After you're done, just make sure you hold onto your gun while you pull up your pants, and all is good.

Some drop trou all the way to the floor and remove the weapon (and holster if it is easily removed) to be placed in the crotch of the pants. You're guaranteed not to leave your gun behind, but the idea of my pants laying directly on the restroom floor is quite disgusting. Great, now I've got that song stuck in my head..."Pants on the ground, pants on the ground, look'n like a fool..."

One thing, I've heard some people do is hanging their gun by the trigger guard on the coat hook on the door. Please DO NOT DO THIS! Those hooks are not very sturdy, and if some kid hits your door thinking it is unoccupied, it could fall off and hit the floor. Assuming the drop safety works and nobody gets hurt, you probably have a kid screaming for his parents because he saw your gun sliding across the bathroom floor. The only bright side to this is that when all of this scares the crap out of you, you are already on the pot.

Anybody else want to chime in on this?
