Finally got the sledge its own holster.

Looks good! How secure is it on the belt?

[Local Trouble]

You should get a couple of Pancho Villa bandoliers to hold individual cartridges and wear them everywhere.  It's a good look.

Haven't tried it on yet. But it should work pretty well. It's a blackhawk holster. I want to get a Trailmaster holster for it, but it takes time for those to be made.



I needed something solid until then. The laws just changed here and we can now get our CCW online in about 90 minutes without having to go burn up 8 hours and a bunch of ammo. It's concealed only, but I wouldn't open carry anyway. For open carry, we still have to go shoot and take a class.

Concealed carry vs. open carry.

Which is better?

Concealed carry vs. open carry.

Which is better?

It's subjective. But if you want my honest opinion?

Open Carry if you want to be hassled by the cops all the time or to be easily removed by the bad guy before the fight even starts. But you look cool when you get shot from behind while buying a candy bar.

Concealed Carry if you want to be left alone by everybody and go about your day, but still be prepared to protect yourself from unlawful violence. But, you don't get to look like a cowboy or some kind of bad@$$ while you do.

Wouldn't open carry help serve as a determent, if for example you're walking through a really rough neighborhood (or some really rough woods)? In other words, help to discourage any helpful blokes who might offer to lighten your wallet?

Not really. But then again that's subjective. If you're walking through the wrong neighborhood, odds are you're in deep already. It's a problem that's 100% avoidable with good decision making. Bad neighborhoods around here are probably more heavily armed than a swat team. A 9mm carried openly isn't going to be much of a deterrent in my neck of the woods.

But the main reason I'd never open carry is that bad guys don't wear holsters or display their guns openly for a reason. They don't want to be identified and put down before they can use their weapon. Neither (quite frankly) do I. As long as it's concealed, you're still armed, but you don't have the target on your back. I hate the word "tactical", but I see open carry as a tactical disadvantage. Because there's a lot of bad guys who just don't give a $h!t about deterrents. They're willing to shoot people, and their work is much easier when they know who to shoot first.

Open carry only seems practical if you're wearing a law enforcement or military uniform.

Concealed carry vs. open carry.

Which is better?

Both are insane.

Worry about 'Straya things.

I keep meaning to watch that show.

He ain't holdin' mine either. I'm ticklish.

I'm Canadian so you only find a few people.with alooooot of guns... I might be one of those people although the laws here are a bit different. I love wartime bolt action rifles and lever action. What do you all shoot ? I personally like my marlin golden 39 a 22 LR because well it's pretty as hell. Also my 98k Russian capture is just fantastic for such an oldie.
