Rob Boudrie Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Just the normal stuff.....not where alcohol is served banks airports ect This is not "just the normal stuff" where I come from (except for the federal stuff and administrative prohibitions at courthouses and a ccw not valid at schools law). I am under no such restrictions regarding bars, banks, police stations, etc. in Massachusetts, Maine (except for posted bars), Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut or Rhode Island. The laundry list of restricted venues is the one problem with recently enacted CCW statutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Airedale Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 I am fortunate to work for a very pro gun company. Legal concealed carry is both authorized and encouraged. The plant manager is very pro gun (me ) and the President (my boss) told me "never miss a hunting trip because of work". The announcement of "I just bought a new pistol/rifle/shotgun" is always followed by "bring it in-let's see it" Good times! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Resume inbound! I missed your resume coming in. I took the 1911 that was setting in it's case (on my desk) and went to the local gunshop and traded it on a S&W 29. Yep-we had show and tell when I returned. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GentlemanJim Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 When you carry open...they are VERY aware of you...and will give you a wide berth. I think you may be in a better position to survive a bad encounter...if they underestimate you ...and you also have the element of surprize. And yes it is getting pretty bad here lots of gang types from down south several of my ancestors came here from Texas cowboys and lawmen.....so I am quite fond of Texas!

The laundry list of restricted venues is the one problem with recently enacted CCW statutes. It's much the same in Oregon. When out of my home I never take my gun off except to go to the courthouse and I only have to that once every four years to get my CCW renewed.

Jim You may be right, but I would rather have it on my hip and let them know than have it concealed when I yell at them to "Go F*@k yourself"...and the shooting starts... I try to stay in condition yellow as Cooper called it whenever I am carrying, but there parts of town where you better be in Orange and semi-red...so know what you mean...do you have MS-13 there? They are some bad folks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GentlemanJim Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 I can understand the desire to hurl insults at them. But I will opt to be very low key....and as most bullets travel faster than sound...they should hear.....nothing. It is a sad state where one must watch ones every step due to evil criminals in our midst. TL I sure look forward to meeting you!! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim I think that might give them an advantage if they are smart (5%) I think iwould rather CCW. I do understand your point. In otherwords they can pump a couple in the back of your head. I would rather return that favor myself before they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
