Cameraman Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I figured this was the most appropriate forum for the question.. For those of you that have your Concealed Weapons License, what is your weapon of choice? Mine is a Ruger LCP 380. Fits in the palm of my hand and fits in my back pocket quite nicely! I was carrying a Hi-Point 9mm when I first started carrying. But it just wasnt working with the holster on my side... Not very easy to conceal.

TSFan20 Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Depends on the day and season. I carry an extremely accurate yet cheap Bersa 380 sometimes, or my baby a Kimber Tactical Ultra II .45. 3" so still fairly easy to conceal...especially in the cooler months.

ColonelCrazy Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 For those of you who carry concealed weapons: Why do you carry it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEXT Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 #1 Because it my right. My gun goes and stays in whatever car I am driving, hardly ever have I carried it on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 #1 Because it my right. My gun goes and stays in whatever car I am driving, hardly ever have I carried it on me. Understandable. But surely you don't do something simply because it is your right, do you? I'm asking an honest question here. I don't carry a concealed weapon, nor have I ever had the urge to do so; however, I understand that people do. I'm just curious as to what makes someone carry a gun on them, perceiveably at all times. Surely there is another reason other than because you have a right to.

To be honest, yes, that is the main reason, just like voting. If you do not exercise your rights, they can and will be taken from you. Most of family has a CCDW.

Cameraman Posted October 7, 2008 Author Share Posted October 7, 2008 Understandable. But surely you don't do something simply because it is your right, do you? I'm asking an honest question here.

I'm just curious as to what makes someone carry a gun on them, perceiveably at all times. Surely there is another reason other than because you have a right to. A year ago, a man went for a walk down what used to be a quite street here in Glasgow... He was shot down and killed by a man tripped out on drugs from the 2nd floor of his home. Now i'm not saying this situation is going to happen to me... I hope I NEVER have to use my firearm... I truly do. But if the situation ever arrived, i'm going to be prepared. Or how about this... You walk into a convenince store... At that time, a man walks in behind you and attempts to rob the place with a loaded weapon. We've all seen those news headlines "Cashier dies in armed robbery". What if you could have prevented this? Would you? These are just a couple of reasons I carry concealed. :thumb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I have extended family in law enforcement that certainly carry off duty as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Greatest fan Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I carry in case it's ever needed. There are a lot of people out there that have intent to do you harm. I have never had a reason to go for my firearm. but I want it there just in case. I don't usually carry around here, I always take it on trips.

woodsrider Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 If you have a Kentucky CCDW are you allowed to carry in other states? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperstown Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 Sig P230 .380. Simply an outstanding weapon. Still carry the old S&W Model 36 (Chiefs) once in awhile also. Just habit, I guess. I don't need a concealed carry permit because I am in law enforcement. I am not required to carry off-duty and don't most of the time. Depends where I'm going and what I'm doing.
