Gunfight Rules

And this is why gun control laws are out of control. Years ago in Idaho, there was no legal way to conceal carry, practically speaking. You either had to become a criminal to protect yourself, or risk this very sort of thing. I have to have a Utah non resident permit because WA state won't accomodate Idaho permits. There is no legal way into Oregon, unless you get an OR permit, and there IS no legal way for CA.


I once pulled down on a guy in CA, completely COMPLETELY illegal on my part. This was in the early 70's in the San Diego area.

"Back then" the girls used to "hide" their boyfriends so I knew this. Some "chick" was hitchhiking, and I thought I was paying attention. He started way ahead of me, came up from the ditch or an abutment from behind the right rear quarter.....blind spot.

She opens the door, gets the seat forward, and I turned around and there he was, crawling through into the rear seat with a big duffel bag and a knife. I have no idea what his intentions were and I didn't ask

I had my 357....which I still have to this day, down beside the door drop by the seat. Swung my left arm up and over and the next thing he knows, he's lookin' down the largest hole he's ever seen in his life.

When he backed out, I just threw it in gear and took off. the door slammed from inertia. After I was 1/2 mile or so down the road, I threw his bag out and beat feet.

That is why we "need" handguns. Besides, in the United States, its a Bill of Rights, not of needs.

Maybe you've seen the news of the oklahoma couple murdered in New Mexico while traveling with their camper trailer. Gary and Linda Haas. They were good friends of mine. They both were gun nuts. Linda was a tool maker. She once made a flare gun shoot 12 ga shells ( you only wanted to shoot that thing once). My point is Gary had a gun with him when they were kidnapped, but it was in a lock box in the console of the truck. It did him no good. You must carry your gun with you. If he would have had it on him they would probably still be alive today.

Amen!

Sad day when you are defenseless and are not able to protect you and your loved ones.

I hold the 2nd amendment in the highest regard!
 
All in all, I'd say that was the most desirable outcome, mostly because you didn't need to clean human tissue out of your car -
unless they left some brown stuff on their way out.

Once upon a time, being young and dumb, I got pulled over at a place & time I knew was a cop tourist trap.
Well, sure enough, he wanted to search my truck - they didn't like folks who looked like I did back then.
If I'd said no he could easily have gotten a warrant, so I told him "You can look, but there's a .38 derringer on the dash.
He asked if it was loaded. I replied "Officer, if it wasn't loaded it would just be a fancy rock".
He laughed so hard he had a hard time saying "Go on...and have a nice night...".

My son in law wanted to see my peace maker, so I took it with me this morning, I was in the living room, looked out and some asshole was trying to get in my truck, I opened the door and pointed the gun at him and told him I wouldn't do that if I were him, just my luck a cop see's me with the gun on him, he draws down on me while calling for back up, 2 hours latter I'm free to go, the cop asked me what the hell I needed a big *** gun like that for, I told him the look on people's face's was priceless when they found it pointed at them, he asked how I conceal it I told him I don't.
 
In Ohio, we have an open carry law here, and by golly we use it.
There used to be signs on business' that said if you carry you couldn't enter, that trend is now starting to lean the other way and the signs are welcoming the open and CCW folks. I have a CCW permit, have yet to carry concealed.
You wouldn't believe how quickly disrespectful asshats find manners when they realize your packing.
 
O: In a gunfight, the loudest noise is the "click" of an empty chamber.
P: Police officer: "Your safety is my concern, but your responsibility."

this is MY opinion on gun use: guns are great for hunting and that is the only use they should have. Hand guns should be ONLY in the hands of law enforcement people and specially not for the average Joe.

Is it all pink bunnies and dancing fairies in your world? I hope you never find yourself in a situation where you have to protect yourself or a loved one.
 
AGREED!

"IS there life, after death? Trespass here, you'll be meeting both Brothers, Smith & Wesson" THEN.............. find out!" Survivor's, from one shot, WILL be shot, AGAIN!

My old grandpa once said to me, "Son, there comes a time in every man's life when he stops bustin' knuckles and starts bustin' caps and usually it's when he becomes too old to take an *** whoopin'.

I don't carry a gun to kill people. I carry a gun to keep from being killed.

I don't carry a gun to scare people. I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.

I don't carry a gun because I'm paranoid. I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.

I don't carry a gun because I'm evil. I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world.

I don't carry a gun because I hate the government. I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.

I don't carry a gun because I'm angry. I carry a gun so that I don't have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.

I don't carry a gun because I want to shoot someone. I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.

I don't carry a gun because I'm a cowboy. I carry a gun because, when I die and go to Heaven, I want to be a cowboy.

I don't carry a gun to make me feel like a man. I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.

I don't carry a gun because I feel inadequate. I carry a gun because, unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.

I don't carry a gun because I love it. I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.

Free citizens must protect themselves. Police do not protect you from crime; they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.

Personally, I carry a gun because I'm too young to die and too old to take an *** whoopin'."

Very well said x2.

Can't wait to be 21 to be able to exercise my rights.
 
Kimbers.... 3 of them......and lots of practice. Couldn't buy ammunition, so I learned how to reload. I will not be a victim. Trained by USMC.
 
I have a AR or handgun for every car and window and door in my house. I have over 5K rounds of ammo and NEVER leave the house with a 40 and 9mm as a back up.
 
Best not advertise what you have- it can make you a target for an ambush, or a burglary while you're out. Best to leave 'em guessing and have them find out the hard way.
 
If you don't believe we're in the process of being disarmed, go buy some .22 shells........
