I will be working in a real bad area right outside of DC in MD for about 3 weeks. Last time I was there I was told not to stop at any lights or to talk to anyone, just to proceed to the site which is locked and gated. The guy I was working with who was an employee there begged me to ride with him because he didnt want to go alone. As I pulled into the site I saw a police helicopter with the spotlight shining down not far from our block...which did not help my confidence! I generally work 1 am to 6 am, so I am out with the worst of the worst and our company is not exactly popular around that area. I didnt think about what weapons I could and couldnt bring into MD last time I went to this site, because I figured they were just over reacting and exaggerating how bad the area was, but I was wrong, they were not exaggerating at all.
I have can carry a firearm in many states but MD is not one of them, but what CAN I carry in MD?? I have a III-A vest with a blunt trauma pad that I wear for my side job which is personal protection, and I was thinking about bringing it along with me, although it is going to be weird not being armed while wearing it! I was thinking of tasers, OC, etc. Obviously nothing is going to be as good as a firearm, but not much I can do about that.
Any ideas?
