what do you all think about plastering your vehicle with pro-gun stickers?

[greencobra]

i think the consensus was no, don't do it. the only reason i ask was i was behind a new-ish chevy pu this morning and his entire rear window was covered. you know, "god, guns...," "come and take it", that kind of thing. the truck was dressed in some corporate livery design but i couldn't get a glimpse of who or what. i'm in total support of his 2a opinion but damn, looking for trouble i think. man, i'd be afraid some anti would voice their opinion beating on my truck.

 

[Picton]

To each his own. He's entitled to choose what he festoons his car with.

I'm entitled to think it's a crap idea, too.

Only use would be to troll snitch instigators. Plaster your car full of GLOCK magnets and stickers with pictures of a big black GLOCK. When someone falsely accuses you of brandishing a gun and cops pull you over and you're only carrying a cerakoted hot pink S&W 642, the liar fina go to jail.

Bad idea.
But I prefer the gun stickers over the “coexist stickers” some religions just don’t get along and can’t coexist

Just the other day I saw a pickup with the "My Family" stickers with 6-7 firearms lined up by size. Pretty cool but not for me.

...you're only carrying a cerakoted hot pink S&W 642,

not a fan of pink, mine would be yellow.

 

[Asaltweapon]

Your truck.
Your rules.

 

[42!]

why would I announce my capabilities and possession to someone who might want to take them or use them against me.

 

[snax]

Big fat nope.
I put nothing on my vehicles. I prefer the gray man approach, except for my old school MA low number green plate and no front plate.

 

[LakeTrout]

I don’t think it’s a good idea to put any kind of bumper sticker on a car. Not just because it makes you identifiable. I just think people who need to express their opinions to the world are emotionally weak. That’s just how it comes off to me.

stickers add horsepower.

This.

Ignoring the theft angle it might inspire a road rager to make a false claim like "he pointed a gun at me" no thanks. Or vandalism problems.

Plus none of these companies are likely paying for the advertising real estate on your car.

 

[Ultrarunner]

Also a no. Furthermore don't keep your registration in your glove box. In the event your car is broken into, the thief now knows that you aren't home, and what your address is.

 

[Tallahassee]

I'm giving myself away, but I have this on my car. Usually get some interesting reactions.

 

[Glockster30]

Not a good idea for many reasons.

 

[G4Y4HK]

There's also classic diversion. Get a car full of commie bumper stickers like this and when people think you're a sitting duck, you whip out an AK underfolder.

 

[jamison55]

Only one bumper sticker on my classic 1993 Ford Escort… “My old Colt has a long c(aw)k”

 

[MaroonedinMA]

The left side of my car is for my “Mom’s Demand Action” and “Hate has no home here,” stickers. The right side is for Glock and Sig stickers. Let ‘em puzzle it out.

 

[GaryO]

I saw a NY license plate that read RKBCCL. In my opinion, you are asking for a break in when you advertise like that.

 

[alan226]

I was certified asa SCUBA diver in 1976. The first thing our instructor told us is to NOT put the red and white diver flag sticker on our cars. It just screams "i have expensive equipment" in my car.

Same thing applies to firearm stickers. To me, anyway, the lower profile the better...

 

[Berrymac65]

Totally unrelated, but when I was a teenager. I put a LGBT gay pride magnet on my friends car. (Gay flag with the phrase "we are everywhere" )
He never noticed and we were talking on the phone later that week and he was telling me about how guys were speeding up to him smiling and waiving. One guy almost ran him off the road, another guy that week followed him to work and was trying to flirt with him.

I told him to look on the back of his car and he did and we laughed our asses off for days

 

[tinhorn]

Hell, I use 'em to cover all the rust holes.

Edit: Gun stickers, not LGBT magnets. Sheesh.

I did that to a friend also. Unfortunately didn't work out as good as your example

 

[chris_1001]

Nope. Grey car and no identifying stickers, plate, etc.

Stealth.

No need to stick out.

If I see gun stickers I think of the diner scene in the Bourne identity… if you know, you know.
