I imagine statistically that some would. Statistically someone would also choose to try and steal the OC"ers gun as well as statistically some would go ahead and shoot the OC'er as previously discussed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not against open carry. I think it is an individuals right. I just think it opens one up to different risks. Getting shot in a robbery or having someone try to steal your gun are two of those risks. Open carry should be done responsibly. Secure, preferably level 3 holster with increased sense of surroundings are two things that will help. In most cases, with today's concealed carry offerings, I just think concealed is the better choice most of the time vs open. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can you at least admit that if a guy was robbing a convenience store and notice that you were open carrying, you might stand a better chance of getting shot vs if you were concealing? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Also add to the matter that generally speaking criminals are not known for making the most rational decisions. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Proof or no proof, surely it is decent common sense that if an armed robbery is taking place and then the robber notices Joe Smith over here with a Glock with extended magazine hanging out of his britches, if anyone is getting shot it's going to be Extended Glock Man. Think a robber is going to stop and wonder/ask if he Joe is a police officer off duty or just a civilian exercising his right to carry? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Less than about 30 seconds. He was standing on a ladder fiddling with a tree. We saw him before we pulled in. That being said when he started walking towards the truck, out of respect, we waited for him to get to the vehicle to explain what we were doing as typically everyone we run across asks us various questions regarding our job. We didn't know he was going to start off so aggressively. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For those (everyone) that thinks conn_air7 is going to be the next George Zimmerman, here's the story. Our job entails us driving around the county looking for things. We turned around in one man's driveway, mind you simply turning around, and he confronted conn_air7, and this was the general statement that the man made: F'ing around in people's driveways is a good way to get shot. (At this point, explained what we were doing and why we were there). The man continued to express that there are thieves that steal stuff around there and he isn't afraid to confront or kill them. All of this being while driving a well-trusted community company vehicle with strobes and markings.

I think that's a Black Widow. Had you turned it over you would have seen a red hourglass. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Again, public road? For all he knew she broke down, was lost, or simply talking on the cell phone to reduce distracted driving. A person shouldn't have to worry about being confronted with a rifle pointed in your general direction just for stopping in a parking lot at night. Also, if the power was out to the area, wasn't her fault. To me the fact the power was out changes nothing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I mean, if you were out in the country, turning around and then sitting in someone's half mile long driveway may not be the smartest. In the city, pulling off the main road and sitting in a low traffic neighborhood seems like the safest thing to do in terms of operating a motor vehicle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, I'm a pro gun person. I do see both sides. I think he had every right to checkup on her and even. E armed while doing so. I wasn't there. Maybe it wasn't that big a deal. But it sounds like the muzzle of his rifle may have been pointed closer than she would have liked. She had every right to be there if it was a public road. I just see it as an intimidation tactic on his part. Also, if at any point he stepped off his property he would be in possession of a long gun with the intent to go armed. Maybe he was technically legal. Maybe she technically overreacted. Maybe his neighbors were mass murdered the day before and he was scared. I just think that it's overkill to to present yourself in such a manner while approaching a car parked on a public road with the cabin light on with a woman talking on the phone. It could have ended badly in several different ways. Maybe she thought he was robbing her and she pulled a gun on her? Then what? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pointing a gun at a woman walking in the phone sitting in her own car on likely a public road? Uncalled for. Checking up on a random car sitting in the neighborhood to see what's going on? That's fine. If it is an overreaction how come three cops had two pistols and an AR to go question the guy? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[emoji379] This appears as the Apple squirt gun to me. It should appear differently depending on device. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Emojis are essentially a standard. How else would they work when you send them to someone without the same phone as you. What isn't standard is the exact display for each one. What appears as a toy gun may appear on someone else's phone as a real one. http://emojipedia.org/pistol/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Reminds me the time in Economics in High School that we were having the conversation on what could be done to prevent stabbing people. A kid got stabbed by another by a SAK. My reply to the teacher and class perhaps they could just make stabbing people illegal. Turns out it already was, who knew? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For those that have never been, this is an amazing shoot. I'd be there if I had the money to blow but it is an experience that everyone should splurge on at least once. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

At my employer they will pay for some college per year. If you leave within a certain timeframe of accepting such reimbursement, you have e to pay half of it back. Now, I don't think it would put you in bad light or anything, you just have to pay half of it back. Honestly, if you have a friend in HR just be upfront with them and ask them what would need to be done on your end to find another job. See if you can come to an agreement that will leave both you and them satisfied. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks to the generosity of a member here, I now have three Mosin Crates! One has original lid, two do not. I think someone may be taking one from me tomorrow. I am thinking of perhaps a coffee table. I've been doing a lot of reading of how other people have done it. One thing I've noticed is that it seems hardly anyone sands/strips the original paint. That being said, I'd say it is probably lead based paint isn't it? A lot of people try to match the color and then paint over the original, filling any gaps, etc. Thoughts and process for a neat project?

With HCP, I don't think traditionally you could have a round chambered in a long gun but it could be "loaded with the intent to go armed" in your vehicle, again just not chambered. Now with the new vehicle statute, anyone, with or without permit, can have any legal gun (long, short, skinny or fat) chambered in their vehicle, which is of course just an extension of your castle.

The Lifestray is a decent price at $14.96: http://amzn.to/29ESIPF

http://amzn.to/29tFju6 Today is Prime Day (seriously, wonder if they realize 712 is not a prime number?). I bought my Wife one of the new White Paperwhites for about $30 off. Not killer but pretty much as low as the Paperwhites ever go. What deals have you found?
