Spare us your well-formed arguments and eloquence and just go to the heart of your argument.:rolleyes:

I've yet to hear your reply on several questions from a few threads back. Specifically, when you made the claim that no one on OCDO would carry in large crowds because it increased the likelihood of gun-grabs beyond what situational awareness alone could cope with. I gave TWO examples of my own OC at large events here in Tucson on two different threads which were locked a good number of posts afterwards. You had more than enough time to respond each time, yet you just sidestepped and kept abusing the deceased equine (criminals target OCers, you'll be the first one shot, OCers are selfish, etc.).

As for shooting, it's true that I don't go as often as I should, but when forced to decide between tuition and ammo or between tuition and food, I guess I'm pretty selfish as an OCer to choose tuition and food, aren't I.:rolleyes:
I do my best to supplement my range time with a CO2 pistol and drawing-from-the-holster drills though. Is it enough? Probably not, but given the circumstances, I'm doing what I can. Feel free to crack a joke about any of that. I'm sure it validates your argument all the more.

Very true WW

Do you have a CCW lic. Have you ever brought a hunting lic. paid for any gun stuff with your credit card visited any pro gun web site belong to any pro gun organization, subscribed to any gun publication, visited any firearms manufactures web site among other things.

You are on a list.

The powers to be if it comes down to it well not believe you lost them in a boating accident.

Hiding them is only useful if one plans to use them for serious work before, after, or during the visit. Other wise what good are they if you can't shoot them, hunt with them, carry them or tell anybody about them.

Last spring in England a new owner brought a house during the remodel he found 30 some rifle shotguns and pistols in the wall. He turned them in I am sure the owner who hid them thought I'll wait for things to get back to normally they never did just got worse.

The time to fight is now before they come for them call, write demand they up hold the constitution. Take a newbe shooting.

We are slowly winning almost weekly on the state level pro guns laws are being past around the country. Sure we have taken some hits but we have won more.

Well, there is that... I was looking for the "ignore" button.

But dang... the guys here have done such a good job chewing on him that he's about all wore out.

Only thing I could add is the mention of the well documented fact that "retention" really isn't a big issue for OC. I've never seen anyone document a real incident where an ordinary criminal attempts to "take" the gun from the holster of an open carrier. Might could happen, of course, like anything else, but it's not a common problem. I've carried for many, MANY years with a simple thumb break retention strap, and nobody has ever even come close to trying to snatch the gun.

In fact, one class I took years ago, a young man approached me and sneered "anybody could take that gun away from you." I just smiled and said, "You want to try it?" He walked away...

We need a card that says, "Warning! Physical demonstrations can be injurious. Recipient of this card releases all claims and accepts full responsibity for any pain or injury derived from such demonstration." :lol:

+1 We thoroughly debunked those claims too. We even posted pics and videos. More fear based arguments.

What actually happened is you made a number of half-brained, incompletely-thought-out, and otherwise amateurish arguments (of the sort many on this forum have encountered enough to destroy in our sleep), got pwned as a result, and then responded with childish antics.

At least I got a sig line out of you. :lol:

Just a guess, but g21sfpistol may be the worst kind of gun owner, a liberal with a gun.

Intense preoccupation with a narrow subject, one-sided verbosity, restricted prosody (at least in sentence structure, if one is to stretch) and physical clumsiness (unproven, but there is that mental clumsiness)...symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome.

One, of course, could argue that I have just described a liberal...:rolleyes:

Just another case where the concealed carry individual WAS assaulted. He seems to be having trouble coming up with an incidence where a open carrier was assaulted by somebody other than police.

Yup. I'm glad this guy went home that night, but it would be hard to be thrilled with an outcome that involved discharging my firearm.

Huh? Isn't it clear, you charlatans, that the two assailants were openly carrying (after they took it out of hiding, of course) and that the CC only guy had the tactical advantage and won the day? Don't you see, the CC guy drew faster than the 2 assailants and totally ruled! It is the ultimate truth you hypocrites! :uhoh::uhoh::uhoh:

Bow down now and worship at the altar of concealed carry tactical superiority! :banana::banana::banana:

Gecko21sfpistol totally owns! :eek:
