[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 742293, member: 7509"] I am probably swimming upstream here and not likely to convince anyone of anything. However, for the record, statistics have repeatedly shown that you are far more likely to be killed with your own gun than with the gun of a "stranger". I have a lot of trouble understanding how folks feel so threatened (other than in special circumstances such as a stalking/court protection order etc) that they feel they need to carry a concealed weapon. Hunting and varmit rifles carried in your truck are a totally different discussion. I am referring to pistols which are of almost no use other than shooting another human being. And yes, I have carried a USAF officer's 38. For most folks carrying a concealed pistol increasses the odds you will be shot - and probably with your own weapon. jmho. Jim [/QUOTE]
