My wife runs slower than me. She needs to carry
Seriously though the more I think about it the open carry law passing would have me carrying more. I don't conceal because it's intrusive with my wearing skinny jeans and tube tops. If I could carry on a belt holster I'd probably do so all the time. Then Benjamin and I could carry even when we have our shirts off showing our gym guns in the summer

I've been in a civilian situation that justified potential gunplay 3 times in my life. And did not have a gun on me for any of those incidents.
The first event was a off duty cop (who I did not know) thought I was breaking into my own house one night. He was hiding in the bushes... dressed in sweats... and did not ID himself as an officer. He WAS pointing a pistol at me. I thought I was being robbed. If I had been armed--- we probably would have shot each other.
While I lived in Florida... a drug deal went bad a few streets over.... suspects running all over the neighborhood. One of them tried my back door. A firm bluff on my part made him think better... he was arrested later down the street.
The event that finally got me to carry .... a really big drunk followed me up the driveway one afternoon. I got him to leave, after he got verbal. But a little later he doubled back and acosted me from the road. I had his plate, and the local LEOs told me they would do nothing.
YOU never know were it will happen. It will not be a situation of your choosing either.
I want to hear more about this bluff???
Some guys attract danger like James Bond or John Wayne Jeff is definately one of those Bond/Wayne kinda guys.
