Just a 'shout-out' for "Big Rick." If I cannot get to my side-by-side(rifled slugs) or my AR match grade upper, match grade barrel, the bomb will be my(.303 Brittania)Enfield to send some punch, down range a mile away! For some hoodrat punk thug in my face, I pull out the pocket hideaway-thug-messer, in the form of .25 calliber. None of these are under lock and key, except my 303 rifle. In fact that AR 15 is right there only maybe 6 or 7 feet from me. The ammunition resides in the same place. Thanx.

You can buy a good safe for about the same cost of a quality gun. It would be money well spent for anyone that owns more than 2 or 3 guns.

Do you think concealed guns should be allowed on college campuses?

The bill proposed allowing citizens the right to carry concealed weapons into bars.. churches.. college campuses and even elementary schools.
