Retired Army 22 years
Recently decided to get my Weapons Carry Permit (Still waiting for it to arrive)
Recently decided to OC
Hope to learn a lot from this site.
Now that I have introduced myself, I wanted to throw this out there for you guys and see what the response is. Personally I couldn't believe it.
My son-in-law is a Deputy Sheriff that recently graduated the Mandate portion of his training. He was over at the house last night and I was showing him my new S&W M&P .40 and then I showed him the GLS 578 Holster I purchased to OC with. First thing that threw me for a loop was he did not know the Carry laws of the state. I had to explain to him that in Georgia the Weapons Carry Permit allows you to OC or CC at MY Discretion. Granted he's a NEW Deputy and isn't on the streets, he's still working the Cells, but it still threw me for kind of a loop that he didn't know. Then I asked, where is your weapon? He shows me that it's concealed. Next to his concealed firearm he has his Badge pinned to his belt. So I asked him, "So out of uniform, you're carrying concealed?" His reply was they are told to carry Concealed when out of Uniform.
Does this make sense?
