Why in the world would somebody who has a Shield carry a Single Six?

If you're there to cause trouble, most likely. If you're there to worship, most likely will cost you money even if it is a righteous shoot. What's the old bromide...... rather be judged by twelve than carried by six! Not have had to use their services but I'm a member of Texas Law Shield. ya! GWB

I'd bet it would warp a Leftist's brain to know how many people in KY carry in church.

That's what carry insurance is for.

So, if you are a church member, who chooses to carry in church and decide to shoot someone in the church who starts shooting folks, -- you are not liable?
Is the church gonna cover you, and any legal suits that may come??

If I have my clothes on, I have my gun on. I carry a full size 9mm, in an OWB holster. That includes when I'm at church. I also carry a snub nose 38 Special as my BUG. I have no idea how many people carry there. They have to have 5 services to get everyone in, but the sanctuary is limited to 600 people. They don't have a clue about security. They have a local police officer that drives a motorcycle and gives tickets as head of security. Apparently he doesn't believe in carrying a gun at church. So chances are if there's a problem it won't be outside where it should be caught.

I'll start over, I won't lead off with the choir this time.
Our minister spent a fair amount of time this morning on safely issues. A car was stolen from the church parking lot last Sunday. She also gave a code word to alert all of us to danger.
I asked on my way out if I should bring my handgun with me. She quickly said yes.
Any thoughts on the subject? "It's a shame for a woman to speak in the church." - 1 Corinthians 14:35 She happens to be right on this point, though. 1 Timothy 2:12 | But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.

Over half our male members carry and about 1 in 3 females carry in the 2 churches I attend.

Is the church gonna cover you, and any legal suits that may come?? In Florida, if the police don't press charges against you, or they do and you are acquitted, one is barred from bringing suit against you in connection with the circumstances on which you were acquitted.

If you don't have a defensive arm, sell your clothes and get one. I believe that is Christ said. Sell your cloak and buy a sword.

So the OP needs to buy himself a AR.

You stand scrutiny of liability no matter where you are if you have to shoot someone.

Any thoughts on the subject? Yes, and caveat I have not read any of the replies. Why the hell you would not have been doing this for years inside a soft target structure is beyond my way of thinking. I'd say I've been carrying in church for 20 years or so. Maybe more. And unless a church brings up a security team, they will never, hopefully, know wife and I are packing.

Practice with the 9mm.
Leave the .22 at home.
Shooting a handgun is a perishable skill.
If your gonna carry it.
Be proficent with it.
Shoot it once or twice every other week or more if you can.
You live out in the willy whacks, should not be a problem to set
Ya self up a decent range from 3 yds to 25 yards.
Like being able to hit a grapefruit to small cantaloupe size target at 15 yds at least with all the rds in a mag.
Consistently....
And under duress/stress.....
All JMO.....
Best advice I've heard so far. About what I do . I try to practice weekly, but don't always. Wish I was more consistent about it.
