After much thought on having a small arm in my home for protection , I have gone and put the wheels in motion for a permit. I happen to live in one of the 5 counties of NYC. I don't have to tell you the BS and cost It of all, but I know in the end it will be worth it. There have been too many break ins and robberies in my area. Most of it has to do with DRUGS. I happen to live in a good area , but criminals steal where the money is. I have 2 more years left before I move upstate and am free from all NYC BS! It still cost me alot of money even though I have a permit for long arms. I do have a 20 gauge pump but my wife is not comfortable with it. Most of my neighbors clueless about what goes on here. I always talk to the police in my area and even they will tell you they can't always be every wear all the time.

Carrying is costly, inconvenient, uncomfortable, and a huge responsibility. I just wish those of us that do would get some credit for doing the right thing rather than being perceived as kooks and nuts. I can't remember who said it, but I recall a quote something like "All that is necessary for evil to prevail is for the good to do nothing". My brother was a cop - we don't pay law enforcement enough to lay their lives down for us. I hope I never have to use a gun for anything but recreation, but am prepared if I must. Thank you to all of you that do carry, and I for one feel safer because you're out there.

I am totally with Pappy and His train of thought...I carry everywhere....I am a firm believer in the Second Amendment....I carry a Kimber Crimson Carry....my Wife totes a Ultra Crimson Carry.....but until She was sure of Herself with an Automatic....She carried Her Ruger GP 100....a Double Action Revolver has no Safety to remember to take off No Jams...Double Stacks....Stovepipes...just point and pull the Trigger...but like Nate and a few have said...If you are not well practiced....and ready to use the weapon to protect yourself...take someone elses life to save your own....and be prepared for the Psychological and Legal Consequences... then you have no business carrying one....JMO
