How often do you carry?

[pax]

Okay, this is kinda-sort in conjunction with two other polls I put up:

Men's poll: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=176338

Women's poll: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=176312

If you vote in this one, please go vote in one of the above polls too.

Thanks,

pax

Every day. As the Boy Scouts say, "Be Prepared."

 

[thorazine]

I am a astronaut. When I leave the house, there is a gun with me 100% of the time

 

[MeanStreaker]

I voted for being a man 50% of the time.... wait! That's not right. Well, you get the idea.

The only reason I couldn't vote for carrying 100% of the time is that I can't carry at work and feel uncomfortable leaving a handgun in the car for 9-10 hours a day as someone may see me remove it and know where to find it five days a week.

 

[TexasRifleman]

Well I'm not an astronaut or Space Shuttle door gunner, but I carry 100% of the time as well unless I'm travelling in states that don't allow such things.

 

[Biker]

Every day, all day. Better to need one and not...ummm...not have one and....never mind.

[Legionnaire]

Would be 100% if I could, but not professionally practical ... especially when traveling. I voted 50% of the time.

 

[McCall911]

50 percent is about right for this guy/man/dude.

 

[thumbody]

I carry most nonworking hours. No firearms allowed on company property so I can't carry 100%.

 

[rero360]

I carry 100% of the time except when I go to school, seeing how its illegal to have firearms on college property and campus security no longer stores weapons for students anymore. its a real shame

 

[Stiletto Null]

Needs an option for "I'm underage or am still in the process of getting a permit".

 

[Fred Fuller]

...and I carry while _at home_ 100% of the time that I'm wearing pants too.

[Werewolf]

If I'm out of the house I'm armed - 100% (well probably 95%) of the time.

Like the man said:

Most people will never need a gun. BUT! When they do need one they'll really, really need one.

 

[jrfoxx]

I voted for 100% of the time, but I am in the Navy, and thus cannot carry to work on base, but if I am going ANYWHERE other than on the base only, I carry 100% in the 'civilian world'.

 

[grimjaw]

I had to say 75%. There are some places I work (gov't installations, military bases, Washington DC) that don't allow it. But I carry whenever it's legal.

[UWstudent]

i carry about 90% so i rounded it up to 100%

 

[Werewolf]

If I'm out of the house I'm armed - 100% (well probably 95%) of the time.

Like the man said:

Most people will never need a gun. BUT! When they do need one they'll really, really need one.

 

[Kurt_M]

I carry where I can, but being in college puts a bit of a damper on that. So around 75%.

 

[Chipperman]

Only one woman has voted so far.
C'Mon, ladies!

 

[fjolnirsson]

After living in a state/county which denied me my right to self defense, I take carrying very seriously. If I'm awake, I have a gun. Always. The only time I won't have a gun is if I'm required to go into a courthouse or jail area, which hasn't happened so far, and hopefully won't.
I don't go places that require me to disarm. So far, I haven't seen any no weapons signage here in Oregon. I won't patronize a business that denies me my right to carry. Part of the reason I left CA was to take my dollars away from them.

 

[The Viking]

Never carry any kind of firearm, cuz its illegal here. I may or may not have a very sharp implement in my pocket all the time though...

 

[TarpleyG]

I carry everyday except when I am at work because policy forbids it. Stupid policy but I need a job.

[IndianaDean]

The only place I don't carry is at work. And our official company policy says ccw'ers can leave their guns locked in their cars on company property. Since they allow me to do that, and I have my car on video surveillance all the time with me less than 30 yards away, I do not break the policy.
I carry all other times however, even at home.
And when I leave it in the car, I have it locked in a case from this company:

[Oldnamvet]

Since I work at a University, can't carry there. Don't want to leave it in the car since they do get broken into often. So I also don't have it one the 45 minute drive back and forth to work. That leaves me to in-state vacations and on weekends. So less than 25%.
