Title: Anyone here packing heat????
Post by: QuDDus on October 13, 2004, 05:02:29 PM
I really want to get my ccw. I heard you have to through a lot of shit to get it. And it could take forever to even get it.  

If you have yours what did you have to go through and how long did it take? I know all states are different I hear in florida it\'s hard as hell to get a ccw. Don\'t know how true that is though.

please give reasons as to how.

I would take all the neccessary trainning courses needed.   And it would make me feel safe.

I think guns are maybe the single biggest problem in America right now.


I think all guns should be illegal all over the world and we need to go back to fighting with swords and bows and arrows.

Well if some idiot invades my privacy at least I know that I stand a fighting chance.  

And you think owning a firearm would not make you feel just a little bit safer? And what do you think most people have there ccw for? Or guns for that matter? Uhh protection.  I mean if your going to play the negative then what valid points do you have?

If I have the proper training to use a firearm.  What makes me kill myself? It\'s not like I am going to be challenging people to shootouts. I would just have the proper training to use a firearm should ever the need arise for me to use the weapon.

I\'ll back owning guns, I dig them but more for recreational use.  Skeet, and target shooting is pretty freak\'n fun, but as for concealed weapon permit...  I\'d feel too intimidating, I mean people would still see the buldge and the holster, as it is I have to go out of my way to make people feel as though I\'m not going to go into a steroid induced rage and kill people indisriminatly.

Guns are fun for shoosting targets in a safe area.  I\'d never get one just for safety.  I\'d much rather move out of my neighborhood if it was a real problem.

Guns SUCK!And most chances are you wont need to use it.Also if you have a kid in the house then be worried.Very very worried.And dont expect that in case of need you ll have the gun next to you to protect you.Unless you carry it wherever you go.And what are you planning to do?Kill someone for protection?Use it on a thief?
And dont expect that you can just take the gun and shoot.Its not like movies

I used to have about 7-8 guns, but I sold them all except for my AK...I keep it at work in case someone gets frisky and tries to blow through the bulletproof lucite...

I have a 12 gauge - sits in my closet doing absolutely nothing - the shells are in a safe.  

I remember at my old house my neighbor and I thought someone was lurking around in the woods behind where we lived.  So I got the gun and went out on my deck and just racked the thing (no shells) and I heard someone take off running.  Then again if I heard someone rack a shotgun I wouldn\'t stick around either.

you want a good reason? owning a gun raises the chance of getting killed by one with 300% (!)

the feeling of being safer with a gun is an illusion. By owning a gun an attacker/burglar or whatever is much more likely to attack you for it because he himself will feel threatened.

can you tell me what a ccw is?
Title: Anyone here packing heat????
Post by: Cyrus on October 14, 2004, 08:43:45 AM
carry a concealed weapon - permit

Here in az this permit is listed in the Poilce DB in such a way that it is in the same area as warrants and such i have had a friend that was pulled over for a traffic violation and such a hassel and even put into cuffs befire the officers really relized that it was a ccw permit and not a warrant.

I\'m going to apply for a ccw as soon as I move into my house (Erie county).  In the state of NY, excluding NYC, you must have a ccw in order to own a handgun.  I love target shooting and plan to shoot competitively.  I had to sell my handguns when I moved from Kansas to NY.  And yes, I will likely carry concealed, although that\'s not my main objective in owning a handgun.  I realize that it\'s highly unlikely that I\'ll ever need to use it.  I realize that if I do, I\'ll be in a world of paperwork, courts, and lawyers.  But I\'m not naive enough to think that "it\'ll never happen to me."  I have zero problem with law-abiding citizens owning firearms.  I feel more endangered out on a highway where any freaking idiot can drive a 2000-6500 pound battering ram upwards of 100mph.

I\'m all for guns. I\'m planning on getting a 12 guage and a rifle for hunting and sport (skeet shoosting). I would never carry a concealed weapon unless I was a cop or whatever. I don\'t see the point. It would likely get me shot instead of me shooting in self defense.

BURN!

I\'ve been around firearms since I can remember. I had a .22 single shot rifle when I was 4. I think that Americans should be allowed to have automatic weapons. (you can in some states, but it\'s hard to do.) We should have everything the Police have. That\'s essentially what the second amendment is about, empowering the populace so that a tyrannical government can never trample their rights. Plus I think MTV should be exploded.

My cousin just got hers. She did not take any classes at all. She paid some dude she knows $100. She lives in lansing, Mi. She said it\'s much easier to get it and all I have to do is give her the money.

I really don\'t know if I want to be walking around carrying a gun now. I have talked to my dad about it he has his ccw.

If a dumb ass comes into my home with a gun...I\'d like to have a gun to defend my family against the dumb ass. Guns aren\'t going to go away, so you might as well deal with it. Seriously. Guns shouldn\'t just be for the people who plan to kill with them. :rolleyes: Why should we, the non-dumb asses, be useless against attacks in our home when the situation arises?

That seems a little extreme. I wouldn\'t trust school environments if that were to happen...which it won\'t.

Black Sam, I\'ve shot one of those on numerous occasions.  Although it wasn\'t the .50 AE, it was the .44 Mag.  It\'s very heavy, so it\'s hard to steady your hands and hit your mark.  The trigger pull also feels kinda...notchy?

However, it really is an awesome handgun, and if I ever have $1200 I absolutely don\'t know what to do with, I\'m going for .50 AE in brushed stainless.

Criminals have weapons when they break into homes.

Criminals are fearful of home owners with guns. However, they seem to prefer the un-armed home owners.

I have a sword. I think I am at a disadvantage.

Just pull it out, cock it and act like its loaded ;)

I\'m planning on buying a rifle or a shotgun or some firearm but not sure what yet, but when I have a family, I will keep it locked up.
