What do you carry with you every day? - Page 2

Stormieweather · 02-16-2010, 08:56 PM

Entirely too much!!

Planner containing: current bills to pay, grocery lists, appointment cards, schedule

Purse containing: Cell phone, wallet, keys, tiny umbrella, ipod bag w/accessories, makeup bag, notebook, pens and current novel.

Gym bag containing: Clothes, shoes, lock, water bottle, gloves, Ipod armband, scrunchie, protein bar

Lunch bag containing: mid morning/afternoon snacks as well as lunch

4 yr old daughter along with: toy du jour, blankie if cold weather, snacks if we'll be gone long.

I no longer carry mace, knives or other weaponry. I do have a mace in my car console, and keep several scattered around the house. But with three inquisitive (and sometimes disobedient) kids around, I have all (fighting) knives and guns under lock and key. The mace may hurt like hell, but they probably won't "borrow" it and it won't kill them.

You guys are painting a very scary picture of America. I'm glad I live where I do, in a different reality. My most dangerous weapon is my car. My most offensive weapon is the non-jesus fish on the back of it.

My thought was,"omg that's so fricking Americana"

You probably have the soccer mom van too.

yep all American mom.

Now you just need fly a British flag from your antenna to mix it up and make people do a double take.

monster · 02-16-2010, 10:19 PM

not round here. plenty of brit flags on cars. and windstars have antennas built into the windows.

So you gun toters are all carrying concealed, or is the holster visible on your hip. If you are carrying concealed, I thought it was difficult to get a permit for concealed. If so, how were you able to get the pemit?

I like to travel light on a daily basis, until recently I didn't even carry a wallet, just some folding money, my DL, and a debit card. Only had keys if I was driving. No house keys around here. No one uses them. That's starting to change...

lookout123 · 02-17-2010, 11:41 AM

how do you like that p32 wolf? I've been thinking about picking up a little p38t but I'm concerned about some of the reliability issues I've heard about. The Kahr is about the same size but will rip mrs L's damn hand off if she fired it.

I (and Mrs L) carry concealed legally. We went through the classes and the FBI didn't spit us out so we're good to go. I don't personally like to open carry because I'd rather people not know I have it before they see the muzzle flash.
