Yeah this suggestion comes up often :banghead: . It is not a possiblity for me at the time. My wife goes to SIUE on a scholarship if we move she will lose it. Also the job I have will always require IL travel and the money is too good and the work too easy to give up at the moment. Where I live isnt bad, just the areas I work in.I have a four letter word for you, M-O-V-E. I know it is not always possible,
How much protection do you think carrying an unloaded handgun in a case with a loaded magazine next to it really will give you?
Think about this for a minute. How many self defense situations might you find yourself in where you woud reasonably have time to unzip a pistol rug, insert a magazine, chamber a round and bring the weapon to bear on your assailant?
A gun unloaded in a case none really. But to be totaly honest it wouldnt be in the case all night. Some stops where I get out the gun will be going in my waistband. I know not legal but I would sooner break the law than get backed into a corner and knifed, or shot by some crackhead wanting the $20.00 in my wallet. The two clerks who were shot cooperated and were shot buy the robbers on their way out the door. That is what I am dealing with so at this point I have to say to hell with the law. I dont worry about being hasseled by LEO's in town as I know most of them by a first name basis and they never do more than drive by and wave when they see me. I am worried about being stopped by a county sheriff or state trooper while in transit. That is why I am looking for a pratical way to carry a pistol and loaded magazine legally within quick easy reach.
