Agreed. Although I think the question on the availability of firearms in early American life is debatable. If anything, firearms may have been as ubiquitous as screwdrivers and commented upon about as often.

I prefer to "carry enough gun". On my budget, I can't afford a $1000 Kimber Ultra Carry II or an $1800 STI Total Eclipse.

In MN, I can wear a jacket that covers my CQC holster just fine for about 8 months out of the year. The other 4 months I either carry my little .22 auto or use the old Thunderwear rig as the occasion allows. I would prefer to be a lot more comfortable and just wear my CQC holster year 'round.

Tactical questions and LEO asshattery aside... It's my Right isn't it?

Rights or availability wasn’t my point....the open carry in the old west was my point. Lots of old pictures “posed” for have firearms yet many random “snapshots” of city streets, small cow towns and larger cities reviewed just don’t show that much open carry.

We’re on same track and agree....I don’t leave the house without my handgun these days either. Don’t travel where such isn’t allowed.....;o)

Individuals right to carry anyway they want safely is what I support.

Stay safe !
