MS TO BE A CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY STATE.

You and I both know the fishermen, hunters, outdoorsmen, and country folks aren't the issue. Never have been.

Your right Super, but some will have you think guns period are the issue. Like a gun is responsible for committing murders or random shootings. I get so tired of hearing the phrase "gun violence". Guess all my guns are tamed or domesticated cause they don't go bang unless I pull the trigger. And yes, classes or enhanced permits are a great attribute to a responsible gun owner. Like G says, if you ever get brought up in front of a jury it couldn't do anything but help.

I'd still rather be judged by 12 than be carried by 6

Right on SuperGlue..

agree....but its better if those 12 know that you have been properly trained and passed a shooting qualification at the range.....looks better to the judge too

G, I have way more training and trigger time than a 8 hr class can provide, my boss was a NRA competitive shooter for 20yrs, we pratice drills and shoot regularly, plus most of us in the south were taught gun safety at an early age. BTW, why would it look better to a judge by having a piece of paper if I save my life, your life , or a total strangers life by using deadly force to stop a clear an present threat to said persons life?

I understand you are trained....but when push come to shove and you wind up in court the enhanced permit shows the jurers and everyone else that you went thru the process to be legal and responsible. Like you I have had way more training also and been shooting handguns for over 50 years. With the enhanced permit you can carry legally in not all but most states. Like you I fought it for years...carried without.....I just feel better now with the permit.
.

See folks G and I prove good healthy debate is possible....lol

Amen and amen Goodtime. We are all shaped by our personal experiences growing up. On another note.....I haven't gotten a ticket since I started handing my license and enhanced cc out the window to the officer. Less rights are seldom good. I can agree on that

Probably just boils down to the fact that I don't trust strangers around me or my family with a loaded weapon displayed. Makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck
