I carry
Posted by jceockwood 10 years, 1 month ago to Politics
I am a concealed carry permit holder in my state and I carry a sig p238 an a daily basis. What are the thoughts in the gulch on this topic and if you carry what do you carry?
While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.

Article 4 Section 1 United States Constitution.
http://constitutioncenter.org/constit...
Article IV, Section 1 ensures that states respect and honor the state laws and court orders of other states, even when their own laws are different. For example, if citizens of New Jersey marry, divorce, or adopt children in New Jersey, Florida must recognize these actions as valid even if the marriage or divorce would not have been possible under Florida law. Similarly, if a court in one state orders a person to pay money or to stop a certain behavior, the courts in other states must recognize and enforce that state’s order.
Similarly North Carolina provided me the RIGHT to carry concealed meaning ALL other states must recognize that right also.

I would never open-carry, though, it needlessly scares the public and can result in laws and rules changing against us. And I agree with allosaur's take about not wanting to be the first target.
They may not carry themselves - but few would take issue with the practice.
I own two Taurus Judges. There is a very clear method to what I do and why.
Open Carry:
When I open carry, I use my paddle holster with my Blued Taurus Judge.
To avoid the potential of "Going Armed to the Terror of the Public", the Taurus Judge looks like what a cop would carry and even the most fanatical gun control activists have ignored or not even noticed it. Because it "looks" like a cop gun as I have been told. In fact I have asked if I am a cop when open carrying it.
I have the first round set as 410 Birdshot. Great warning round, NO damage if fired in the air, no worry about BB's coming down.
Round 2, is 000 Buck shot.Round 3 is 45 Long Colt, followed by 2 more 000 Buck.
Usually when I am open Carrying my Judge I also have my Ruger LCP on my ankle, or my Taurus PT145 in my "Smart Carry" holster with a spare magazine or both depending on how froggy I feel.
Occasionally I will open carry my tactical Taurus 24/7 OSS if I am going to say a gun show or something where lots of people are open carrying.
All my weapons use hollow point self defense rounds for obvious reasons. "Dead men tell no tales" and very little chance the round will pass through and through damaging someone else.
Each weapons I have stashed around my home is easily available to me, loaded and chambered so I do not have to waste time.
Normally I daily conceal carrying my Ruger LCP, either in my pocket, or on my ankle.
As a side note my wife also carries Ruger LCP in her purse that has a special pocket she can stick her hand in and shoot through the purse.
