How Often Do You Carry.

[Jackalope]

Well. How often do you carry?

 

[Jackalope]

Me personally, I put it in the nightstand safe at night and put it back in my holster right after putting on my belt on each morning. I don't think a waking hour goes by that I'm not carrying. WFH makes that easier also.

I have one in my nightstand, one in my regular day bag, and one in my truck. I carry on my person about 50% of the time when I'm around home, 100% of the time I'm in a place unfamiliar to me.

I take it everywhere I go. It stays on my truck at work. Only time I don't have it in me is when I know I'm going out drinking.

If I leave the house it’s on my belt. if I’m home it’s close by.

This is why I only carry 50% of the time

Carrying curbs my drinking

FeeBeeI, is that you? I don't own anything to carry. Sold them all when we left Alaska.

Apparently, not often enough, according to a State Trooper that stopped me for not giving a turn signal. It was late and he was "fishing" for DUI drivers.

When I showed him my driver's license he seen my CCW permit and he asked if I was carrying. I said, "Nope. If I was, I would've told you when you walked up."
He replied, "Why not?"
I said, "I was at a place where I didn't think I needed it. Plus, the clothes I'm wearing are too tight to hide a firearm."
He said, "You don't get to pick, when the bad guys are going to hit you. If you have it, you should be carrying."
I agreed with him and he let me go.

It is usually always in my Truck except like Dustin said when I am going out drinking.

I'm like Jesse... 50% of the time if I'm around home or in a familiar place, and 100% of the time when in an unfamiliar place. That being said, the wildcard is whether it's me by myself or I'm with my family. When I'm out somewhere with my family, I'm carrying almost 100% of the time, regardless of where we're at.

I keep a full size pistol in the nightstand beside my bed with 17+1 and a light/laser combo. My carry gun normally stays hidden in a secret place near my front door... That way it's easy to get to when I'm heading out the door, and also there at the ready if I'm caught off-guard by someone.

I have a 9mm pistol AR that I want to eventually rig up to keep in my truck. I just haven't made it a priority for some reason. I know... Shame on me.

I have one in my vehicle and if I'm not at work and have a belt on consider me armed unless I'm drinking.

I need to do a better job of it. Always when hunting or working on properties. It’s in my truck a lot and always near in house (not where my son can get to it). However, not nearly often enough into stores and such. I work from home most of the time - so it’s always close but I need to get back in habit of carrying when I go out, more.

 

[JOHNROHIO]

Works the only place I can’t have it on me. 99% of the time other than that, gets set on the nightstand when I go to bed.

95% of the time I'm carrying OWB anymore and could give a shit less about printing. Hell, half the time my shirt rides up behind my gun and I don't even notice that I've been open carrying until that night. . The average person isn't situationally aware enough to even notice it under a shirt much less think it's a firearm. If they even notice it at all it could be a phone, leatherman, or even a colostomy bag.

On some occasions I carry IWB but that's pretty rare, I got tired of my firearm or holster digging in my side. My kimber is pretty slim and I would simply tuck a pocket holster in my strong side waistband but it would still be noticeable to me. I got an OWB holster from 1791 gun leather and couldn't be more happier or comfortable.

I can only legally carry while in ohio. They changed the law here in Jersey and I’ve jumped through all of the hoops and am currently waiting on an appointment with a judge. I should be legal to carry in Jersey after the judge ok’s it.
