I shouldn't even ask this question because the guy that told me I was carring overkill is my "brother-in - law" and guess what he was in the Coast Guard but got thrown out due to health issues.

But since he's one that "knows everything about everthing"

I made the mistake of letting him see me get dressed, and I usually carry my glock on my left handed holster, being that I'm left handed.....but this is where it gets me pissed,,,,,,,because he sees me putting my right holster with my 357 magnum. And immediatly i'm told that most shootings happen within 2 seconds so the guns would probably do me no good anyway,

I tried to explain calmly that not all muggings or robberies aren't carried out by ONE person. So if my glock runs out I have 6 more rounds then i'm screwed but hopefully they will all be dead.

I normally only carry my glock, but when I go out with this crazy crowd "inlaws" I would carry a bazooka if I could.

What do you think?:ak:ak:ak

I don't have an issue with anyone who chooses to carry more than one weapon. Fairly regularly, I carry a primary on my hip, a BUG in my pocket, and a knife or two.

Fastest reload is a second gun. It's a crazy world out there.

No the fastest "reload" is a bigger mag! Get a different weapon if yours doesn't have the capacity you feel you need.... A G17 with a +2 plate and one in the pipe will give 21 rounds..... THATS 3 1/2 SIX SHOOTERS!

I understand LEOs having a BUG....

They insert themselves into trouble

Their primary weapon is a vulnerable target as it is OC. I've seen LEOs disarmed from behind!

Obviously, you've not been to WallyWorld at Phillips and Emerson.

I don't carry extra mags/guns for the added ammo they provide. I carry them because : censored happens and guns fail....even Glocks, Capn. Having 40 rounds on board means diddly if the gun doesn't go bang.

Not if your trigger spring breaks! Been there, done that one. - In a match, not in a self-defense shooting...Pissed me off too, cause I zeroed that stage

BTDT, as well, brother. That's exactly what I was talking about. :thumsup
