Ain't this a town of just 1,800 people, at 6 o'clock in the morning? The sort of place where nothing ever happens?
There's a reason "GFY" is considered an appropriate verbal greeting in some parts of the earth. Dave Some people are adept at exuding a don't phuoc with me attitude. Some people not so much.

i had to kind of smile after reading the last coupld of posts. I have a redhawk about half buried in my chair in the living room, been breaking in the trigger. That and this made me think of a friend of mine, that as an old man lived up in quemato, by himself. Went in there one day, and there was ken in his chair, mostly lived out of that chair in the living room. I saw some metal glinting to the left of his leg but pretty well covered. Asked him about it. It was a .45colt revolver he kept there in case of "uninvited guests." I still smile at that.

Sounds to me that he was placed in a real difficult situation even if he did have a gun. What are ya gonna do, pull your weapon and tell a guy asking for a cigarette to get the fugg back?

That's exactly what you do. Put your hand up to let them know you don't appreciate the approach. Use your command voice to tell them to "Stop, don't come any closer, I have a gun." If they don't have bad intent no harm done...... You hope......

Last thing I'm going to yell in public is, "I have a gun".

One of the members of our local American Legion was walking his dog past a church at 0600 hrs and three native American youths beat him and left him for dead.
This is making me rethink my J Frame as a CCW. Is 5 shots enough against three attackers? Didn't realize that his happened over 6 years ago. http://www.presspubs.com/article_fa2fdcc9-ac60-5c81-87db-e68fec579142.html Neither did whelennut. Dave Seems to be an extremely slow thinker.

Looks like the mother and son team got beat up a bit, themselves. Perhaps while resisting arrest? I am hearing now locally that the marks on the mother and son team came from the 80 year old man. I guess he got a few licks in before they took him down.

Last thing I'm going to yell in public is, "I have a gun". Same here. I strongly believe in the element of surprise. (That's why I do not open-carry.)  L.W.
