What do you carry?
cracker:
And so do I Pat. I've never had to use my gun or even draw it but the cold fact is that in our society the possivbility of needing personal protection is greater every day.
Autumnbear:
I like guns but my wife does not. I grew up around them though. My home security is my 40# hickory bow connected to a 275# heavily tattooed hillbilly in his underwear. That will scare off any intruder! ;D

Worked in Transylvania County too much to not carry lol.....
In all seriousness that is what prompted me. I dont ALWAYS carry, and havent for a while, just depends on where I'm at or going.
Came across too many old "agricultural" fields in them rhodo-hell thickets out near Round Mountain in Transylvania county when I was doing wetland/stream delineations.
Hope like the devil that the only thing I ever point it at is paper or cans....I did have to dispatch a coon once, near a crowded school bus stop, that was extremely thin and sickly looking, aimlessly wandering and stumbling, and not scared of anything. Probably distempor, but there had been 2 cases of rabies within a mile of that community that summer.
Bevan R.:
Never go anywhere I would need to carry. ;)
Keep a slug filled 20 ga for home. The way I shoot a bow, I would be in trouble using that for protection. ;D

I keep my dad's Ruger SP101 in the console of my truck, with high hopes that I'll never have to use it
but with the security that it's there if I ever need it...........
