SOME OF US HAVE CCW PERMITS AND CARRY CONCEALED GUNS FULL TIME. WIFE AND I BOTH HAVE OUR PERMITS AND BOTH OF US CARRY FULL TIME. I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE NICE TO SHARE THE FOLLOWING WEBSITE THAT GIVES INFORMATION ON OTHER STATES AND WHAT IS NEEDED TO BE LEGAL IN OTHER STATES WHEN YOU ARE TRAVELING THRU THEM OR TO THEM.
Carry Concealed
That IS a good site, DMW. I've used it for trip planning before.
Was it you on here a few months ago that was interested in seeing a Ruger LCP?
If so, it looks like I'll be at Truman this weekend, and mine almost always tags along.
I LIKED THE PICTURE THAT WAS POSTED ON IT ABOUT THE GUY WHO SHOT THE TOILET OUT FROM UNDER HIMSELF!Quote:

GLAD I HAD THE S&W ON ME THAT MORNING.
Dang! I just keep mine on me in case I catch one of those big 'ole Truman slabs and have to subdue it.Quote:

THE KUM AND GO AT NATIONAL AND NORTON ROAD HAS BEEN ROBBED ABOUT EVERY 3 WEEKS. I GET GAS THERE BEFORE ANY FISHING TRIPS BECAUSE IT IS CLOSE TO THE HOUSE. I FIGURE WITH ME GASSING AT 3 AM MY TIME WILL COME UP ONE DAY. WITH THE BUDGET CUTBACKS OF THE POLICE AND GREENE COUNTY SHERIFFS OFFICE ALOT OF TIMES THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH OFFICERS AVAILABLE TO JUST BACK UP EACH OF THEM ON CALLS. AND RESPONSE TIME FOR POLICE REPORTS CAN RANGE FROM ANY WHERE FROM 30 MINUTES TO OVER 4 HOURS.Quote:

the more people who are packn, the safer it is! law abiders don't get background check and register weapons to commit crimes. if i were a robber, i would never hold-up a place where all the patrons are strapped, i'm just sayn...
Not to mention having to file our fingerprints with the state/fed, etc...Quote:

I'll admit the fact that a lot of Texans carry DID cross my mind once in awhile when I was tempted to flip somebody off in traffic. No wonder Texans are so well mannered. :D
You're right.
An armed public is a more polite public.
G.
When we were in CO it was open carry, too. It was always fun to see if anyone had anything bigger than my S&W .44 on their hip. Those were the days.... Rocky Mountain High.............. :p
LOL IT DON'T TAKE A CANNON TO KILL SOMEONE NOVICE! GRANTED AS BAD AS I SHOOT I MIGHT NEED ONE!Quote:

Back then there were BEARS in those mountains and big ones. In case I had to shoot I wanted to be OSOK (One shot, One Kill). What a different way of life in the mountains.
unless i have a bazooka, i'm not shooting a charging bear only one time :-)
