There ain't no way I'd get involved by loaning her a firearm. Make sure she gets it on record with the police that she's concerned for her safety. That way if something does happen, and she protects herself (by any means) she at least tried to go thought the police first.

Tyson's Corner does not allow guns? I carry anywhere that it is not AGAINST THE LAW to carry. Tyson's Corner is not on the list.

But if the designated person is the manager, what if you have to wait 10 minutes to see him or her? You're still going to stand out in the open, waiting, open carrying, for all to see. Plus, this makes it EASIER for the manager to say "NO". Managers are less likely to approach you on their...

oda226 - what you say reminds me of how Ohio was originally with CCW. You could not open carry, but you could only open carry when in your car. It was impossible to transition to and from your vehicle without violating the law. I struggled with this during two trips since I have family in...

I'm for open carry when it's appropriate. It's not appropriate eveywhere. OC for the sole purpose of drawing attention is just silly and does no one any good. Just as it's not appropriate to wear a T-Shirt and jeans to a funeral, it's not appropriate to open carry everywhere, either. THAT...

USMCDK - Reghardless of what Massad Ayoob says, does the article actually provide any links to specific cases in which a person was convicted solely because of how many magazines he or she was carrying? Is that what you're saying - that the decision on whether self defense was justified depends...

One. And the primary reason I carry that is because the magazine is generally the weakest point in the gun and the part most likely to cause a failure. My 228 and my P30 both carry 15+1 rounds of 9mm - hopefully that's more than enough to get out of harm's way and save my arse.

No SIG, at least in 9mm, is better than the 228 IMO. Perfect balance and a perfct fit for my hand.

When I bought my P30 a couple of weeks ago I was "delayed" - but at least it was only like 30 minutes. It sucks - you drive an hour to go to a gun shop somewhere and may have to drive all the way back the next day just because the stupid check was delayed. I wish you could get "pre-approved"...

I think is a pretty broad statment and depends on where you live. Certainly your weapon is being taken as evidence regardless. Fine, they can have it - I'll get another one tomorrow. But I don't see Some City PD arresting a woman who they found injured with half her clothes ripped who just...

Who cares. You can only shoot someone if you think you are going to die. Since the alternative was death, the cost of the gun that saved my life is not important. Besides, if it's a legal self defense case, saying you're not going to EVER get the gun back is pretty silly. It may take a while...

No plastic? Then I'd get a CZ pistol.

Depends on what I am wearing. Most of the time a SIG P239 9mm in a Rocket Man IWB Kydex holster. When I have a suitable cover garment, a SIG P228 in a Comp-Tac Kydex paddle holster. When dressed really light, a SIG P232SL in a Comp-Tac Kydex IMB holster. Every now and then I'll carry my...

Wow - a lot of votes and a lot of pro-gun votes. Is this real? Over 300,000 with 97% pro-gun????

Get an LMT. No one has ever been made fun of for buying an LMT. If you get a RRA, Stag, etc. the Colt folks will tease you about your commercial buffer tubes and 5140 steel. If you buy a Colt the RRA, Stag, etc. guys will tease that you spent more for nothing just to get a name. They will call...

It's still up. I voted, and common sense is still prevailing.

Yes, Kaine is a pinhead. There is little purpose in writing him at all. There is a lot of pro-gun support in the Virginia legislature, however - and it IS worth taking the time to write them and let them know how you feel. My delegate lives in my neighborhood and I see him around all the time...

What happens to the people around the gunman? Nothing worse than was going to happen anyway. Having armed citizens on the scene at least give people options other than hidind under a desk, which historically has not worked too well for too many people. Your friend has a weak argument.

If 35 suspected terrorist purchased guns, and we're worried about that, then why are these "suspected terrorists" running around at all? Why? Because they have not commited a crime, yet. And we wouldn't want to infringe on their rights. So instead, we'll infringe on the rights of folks who...
