One bad thing about contraband, is that it may turn up during investigation of a questionable (or even legit) self-defense scenario, and prejudice things in the wrong direction.
YMMV. Just my two cents.
I appreciate that, but I'm personally liquidating all my firearms and accessories to pay the tab on a surgery for a loved one...If they found those plates at my house, and I was still alive, it would only be thanks to my determination and/or benchmade. I'd take and hope for jury nullification.
