RED potatoes? You think I’m some sort of commie or something?
What’s the EDC load out
your woke up this morning
got yourself a gun
I’m a hunter-gatherer.
While I almost never carry these days, I can understand why somebody might carry a concealed weapon. Its the dudes that open carry that get my jaundiced eye.
I can understand why someone would open carry more and kinda prefer to know who has a gun. I’m from normal places where just no one has a gun, but wouldn’t open carry be a deterrent, don’t really see the advantage of hiding your gun if you have one.
I saw a clip of a guy open carrying in a gas station, someone walked up behind him, pulled the gun from the holster, and ran out. Just an anecdote but it’s part of why I cc. Guns are expensive.
Lol at the dude who got his gun pickpocketed. Probably bought a gun with the intent of shooting a burglar, getting it swiped in public is pretty hilarious. Maybe secure your deadly weapon better. I still don’t really get the point of having a gun if you don’t tell the world. I’ve never carried any weapon that could be read as a weapon cause you’re not allowed to have them and in the circumstances one was necessary, I taped a baseball bat to my hand. The point was, during the time I was genuinely in real real danger, I made a POINT, to let it be known I was armed, if I had my baseball bat rebar replacement with me, it stuck out enough to be seen. If it’s there to make conflict not happem what’s the use in hiding it?
My gripe isnt with CCWs but guys who talk about “duty pistols” outside of an armed forces context. Like within that context, you won’t get to decide what pistol you use so it’s kinda pointless asking around for the “best duty pistol.” Usually it’s mall cops who get to carry a desert eagle or guys who open carry a glock 17 in jeans and a polo shirt to the store
