What do you carry when you dont want to carry
- Thread starter m60lmg
- Start date
I always want to and do carry a handgun. I may supplement with another gadget but 1st
reach is for firearm.
Sounds familiar. I was told recently that the mechanism for demonstrating FLRB relief was the VAF, and not the standard NICS denial appeal. Thoughts?

When I don't want to carry my gun I carry my gun. My life and the lives of my family are more important than the minimal inconvenience of carrying a block of Glock.
I'd be very interested to know if they've initiated felon in possession charges against anyone who had FLRB clearance. This appears to be an administrative decision to determine who's name goes in the "No soup for you" database, and not necessarily their position on prosecutions. It seems like backdoor legislation to me that wouldn't hold up in court with a correctly worded defense, since the USC on the subject is very clear. It still leaves some people in a crappy situation.
I think the person you're referring to found out that he wasn't prohibited based on the date of his offense (and the shorter HOC penalty at the time).

Ah, not necessarily. Where I work for example (DARPA operations, military work), we're not allowed to carry into the building, but non-firearms are allowed (mace, folding knives under 4", for example). Firearms are only allowed under a very strict set of circumstances, as well.
The douchebags the sheep voted into office never defined the liquor law here. Therefore they're allowed to f**k you if you had a beer ten hours ago...let jail time ensue.

I did not know that. Can you tell I don't spend time on military bases?

It's a complicated issue, and it could be argued several different ways. My point is only that there's no question about the legality of carrying into a bar, the only question is regarding how much of the bar is carried in you.

Actually, they just look the other way if you are politically connected, wealthy, famous, or are law enforcement; or know someone in the preceding categories. It is up to "officer discretion" to pick and choose who to punish and how.

Guess I'll keep the Admirals and Generals (I haven't pissed off yet) in the background, in case I get caught lighting fireworks while having a beer
If you decide to buy some kind of tactical pen, please report back with how well it works as a writing tool. I've been thinking about buying one of those since I'm sick and tired of Staples pens falling apart.
Not arguing with you, but do you know where it says that? I can't recall ever seeing it in the MGL's?
12ga 870?

GSG, how would this play out if one had been drinking at home for a few hours in the evening, then used a firearm in a self-defense scenario against a B&E perpetrator in your bedroom at 2am?

With regard to the alcohol thing, for me I don't change carry habits unless i know that I'll be having "more than a few". Like many are saying here, it's another bullshit interpretation of the law...so I don't get too upset about that. I thunk on it for quite a while, then compared the scenarios in which I would actually draw the pistol to the reason I carry in the first place...just because I had two beers doesn't mean that my mission statement is now invalid.
When I don't have a CCW, you can usually find at least 3 blades on me, which are atm usually a leatherman skeletool/MUT, ESEE RAT3, and ESEE Izula. The fixed knives stay in high riding belt holsters, quite concealed.
