Is it better than requiring a permit for carry at all, yes. It’s still needlessly vague, confusing and will quite likely result in someone getting hung up because they didn’t understand what it does and doesn’t do. I too am hopeful that it can be cleaned up and true constitutional carry enacted.

I strongly suspect that were his antics continuing, even the half-assed permitless carry we now have would not have gotten through.

The bougie parts of Nashville kinda blend in together for me, but I knew one of y’all would get it.

Just don’t do it in Brentwood. Please.

You are correct that there are many millions of people who carry every day regardless of what the gun laws are and in clear violation of them. I do however believe that it is unfair and incorrect to assume that because one chooses to carry in violation of the law they are also the type of person to violate the life liberty or property of others. If the choice is to carry in violation of the law, or put oneself at risk and at the mercy of those who may decide that one is a target for which they wish to do harm there is no choice there at all. “In the first place, it would efface from everybody’s conscience the distinction between justice and injustice. No society can exist unless the laws are respected to a certain degree, but the safest way to make them respected is to make them respectable. When law and morality are in contradiction to each other, the citizen finds himself in the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense, or of losing his respect for the law—two evils of equal magnitude, between which it would be difficult to choose.” ― Frédéric Bastiat, quote from The Law

I don’t have it immediately at hand. It was initially relayed to me by trustworthy sources, and I remember seeing it then, but I didn’t bookmark it. I’ll post it once I can find it again.

It’s a thought.

I’ll be happy when this is well and truly over if only for the death of this thread.

They better not lowball me. I know what I’ve got.

Yep. Original drivetrain.

I’ve got a 99 Mazda B3000 (rebadged Ford Ranger) with 427k miles on it. Do I win?

Hell, even in states that are two party, officers are mostly excluded from that as government employees they have no expectation of privacy when in public in the performance of their jobs.

I’d start reevaluating that thought process if I were you. If you’re talking about the 3 shot, 3 seconds, 3 yards bit, that’s an often repeated, but wholly incorrect piece of data that is far more myth than fact. The data used to build that stat comes from NYC officer involved shootings when revolvers were the standard issue sidearm. More recent data is that the number is around 8 rounds fired. Still, that doesn’t negate the need to carry a spare magazine to fix a malfunction were one to occur.

This story is only weird due to the histrionic reporting involved. I hope dude manages to beat the charges because they’re BS.

Should he have discretely stored the weapons in a secure manner, 100%. Was he dumb for leaving things how they were, 100%. I still have a hard time seeing where he should be charged with any crime at all. How many of y’all travel with equivalent set ups? I know I do. If I were to stay in a hotel, I’d bring them into the room with me and not leave them in a vehicle where they would be at a much higher risk of left.

Here’s a link to the actual product. I prefer the paste. https://ekusa.com/product-category/cat-crap-products/

Put some cat crap on it. It’s what I use on all my weapon optics and night vision glass.

This isn’t new. All of the big 3 have done this. Modern engines often don’t make the noises American consumers want.

Agreed. That’s why I’d feel bad for flagging them.

Looks like standard KC fare. Burnt beef in ketchup.

He’s been zapped. Thanks to everyone that reported and messaged about him.

I like the Holosun. Some folks find it busy, but I like the eotech style donut of death reticle. It’s solid, well built and only second to the trijicon with regards to ruggedness.
