I was selected July 31 (first time I'd seen this happen in quite a while) for the special treatment at LEX. But I wasn't the first person in line - must've been three or four. Also, they only gave me the wand wave business, ignoring my carryon.

I've actually been pulled to the side because I look suspicious. You should see their faces when I tell them "I got a gun." 
In another case I had a screener board the aircraft and say he was going to search me even though he knew I was a FAM. I offered to save him the trouble and show where my firearm was, but he was insistent. Not feeling like playing anymore, I told him to go get a supervisor. Never saw him again.
