I've always said it just gives someone a point of attack.... but that's just me. You do you when it comes to carry....


P.S. anyone missing a robin's egg Taurus lol?

I have a few times, but very few. Being an old guy, I prefer concealed. I'm too easy a mark as it is to give someone another reason to pick me.

i mean you could argue that open carrying led to the theft; or merely entering a store with a known possible criminal. just sayin'.

never. relax.

Only at the range.

This news report explains why.

Was this the $300 Glock 17 for sale recently?

Stop and Rob.

Only on my farm. Otherwise, it's concealed.

I'm sure that no one that conceal carries has ever had their weapon taken away at gun point.

 

[joegrizzy]

yeah the whole "well he made himself a target" but like if that dude is approaching me, i'm either moving or reaching.

yes, that is the race relations of 2021. your best bet is to avoid them at all costs.

No way am I going to open carry. Mine stays concealed till I need it.
