CCW..Question

[markiver54]

Sorry if this question has been brought up before; skipped reading all posts...just wondering how often any ccw holders actually carry? I know this can vary...depending on where you live. Don't think I would worry too much up where RR and a few others are.the bad guys wouldn't stand a chance

I've had a CCW permit since Dec. 2013 when I started this shooting hobby; so far I've never carried and very likely never will.

I dont leave home without it.

Every day. No permit required in MS (including out of State visitors), but are available voluntarily for those who want/need one for various personal reasons. A few places are restricted of course.

I do not carry all the time. In Illinois many places are off limits for CCW. I do, however, carry at church. I live within a few miles of the Indiana border and can carry in Indiana without any problems.

Don't carry at all, other than the very rare occasion when a neighbor reports a problem bear in the area, but, again, that's very rare. If you wear a jacket or coat over your handgun in our state, though, it is considered concealed, so we both have our permits. Up here, even in the summer, not unusual to wear a coat when out in the woods.

Some interesting answers so far. Have had my ccw since about '04. At that time, I didn't even have an easily concealable gun. Have since purchased a slim single stack 9. Don't carry ALL the time, depends on where I'm going and when. Originally, I just wanted it to legally transport my guns (hidden), when we go to the Summer cabin. If I had to stop at a store, don't want them laying out in plain sight, as the law would have it. Can open carry here no problem, however I choose not to alarm anyone by doing so. Answer was a permit.

Btw, probably everyone knows this, but there are now 15 States with permitless carry. Up from 6 just a few years ago.
