Concealed Carry Weapon of Choice

Hopefully, being restrictive crime is low there. Here in S. FL. things gets dicey.

Yeah.

Although I can, I don't feel the need to EDC at all.

[ThisisOverload]

ever thought you may be the catalyst?

Never crossed my mind.

I'm white.

Concealed carry? Looks bulky.

Keep your temper in situations, road rage, don't challenge people, control your anger if someone pisses you off.

All the stupid stuff we do when we are young and dumb.

For these reasons,  I'm probably one of those guys who shouldn't.    Not often, but every now and then....

Don't feel bad.  I've done all that stupid stuff as a full grown adult.

Ok, look. For those who think they shouldn’t carry because of temperament, carrying should and in most cases do the opposite and actually humble you. Let me explain.

There are things that are in play…in ANY situation including the daily shootings in Chicago that I won’t touch on in this post.

One is the “method” to shoot someone, that being the firearm. If you’re carrying you obviously have the method. Two is the “opportunity” if you have the “method” you can come across the “opportunity” to blow someone away if they piss you off in anyway, but most of the civilized world won’t do that, which brings into “intent”….most of the civilized world DO NOT come with the intent to kill someone unless it’s in self defense, protecting family or others.

All of the bad situations i've been in where i felt in danger had absolutely nothing to do with me, just wrong place at the wrong time.

I've never started an altercation in my life, not even when younger.

Carrying a gun doesn't make you a Cop or Captain America; in all situations you should deescalate or leave completely. Deadly force is used when you have no other option. That's why you always have an "out". But sometimes you have no other option.

Some colleagues were in Las Vegas last week when that stabbing happened.

Unprovoked and happened at 11am. There is no way to avoid these things and they happen every single day.

The time i almost got killed, i was walking through a parking garage after shopping at the Galleria mall in Houston. Got approached by 4 thugs with weapons as they intended to rob me, luckily i managed to get away and into my car. An old lady was robbed and beaten to death 2 days later, in the exact same place.

Stay strapped.

Haven't handled it yet but I had heard it was comparable to the G19.

Nah brother, mechanically they are worlds apart.

I have a short list of weapons I will buy, load rounds into, put in a holster, and go to work.

I know these weapons will go bang every time..I don’t even need to test fire them or do an initial cleaning.

1) glock
2) sig
3) m&p’s

That’s it

I stopped carrying my Shield because it was becoming a liability. After awhile the magazine wasn’t seating and when I got it to seat was staring to pop out. At first I thought it was my holster but the trigger guard was covered the release. I switched out to my CZ then after a few weeks took the shield to a gunsmith. He took it apart and said the release and around the release was rusted. He cleaned the rust off and put anti-rust coating on it.

It’s fine now but still a little sketchy about carrying for reliability purposes

When I mention gun manufacturers never assume I am talking about a single stack…I absolutely hate single stacks and think they are an absolute waste of time.

I have a s&w .357 that I have had in my truck for over 30 years.We can open carry (Texas) but I don’t want anyone seeing what I have. I have gotten pretty good with this over the years but I need to get with the times and update this.

Funny, I considered putting one on my CCW just to fill in the space on the app.

Well I already have all of those, was looking to add some more variety.

I use iron sights on my G19 but changed out the stock ones. As I get older I’m going to be forced to switch to a red dot. I run the Holosun 510c on my carbines and EOtech 552 for my 308

Good choice Red dots are the future

    best weapon if you have bad eyes or are a poor shot.

          if you have better eyesight.

Shotgun in general is good for home defense

I've fired some of those massive hand cannons before, they can do a lot of damage.

My oldest brother has a S&W 500, almost breaks your wrist.
