If you need a permit, your just saying you need permission from the government to protect yourself.
FUGETTABOUTIT!! I'll stick with the 2nd amendment and forego the permit. Call me crazy!!

Man with concealed-carry permit shoots gunman
By Kelli Wynn
Dayton Daily News
DAYTON | Two men carrying guns approached a 40-year-old man at Riverview Avenue and Catalpa Drive early Friday. Their victim bent over with outstretched hands.
Then things changed swiftly.
The targeted man pulled out a Glock 23 handgun — he has a concealed-carry permit — and fired several shots, hitting one of the gunmen, police said.
Police were dispatched to the 2000 block of West Riverview at about 12:45 a.m. on numerous calls about a shooting.
Police found the 40-year-old male victim at his Dayton residence. He told them that he was walking west on Riverview when he was approached by two males in dark clothing coming from Catalpa. One shoved the victim, the victim turned around and both men in dark clothes flashed handguns, police said.
The victim then "began to back away in a bent-over position with his hands outstretched," according to a police report. Then he pulled out a Glock 23, a .40-caliber handgun, striking one gunman several times, police said.
The two ran off, but police said they caught up with possible suspects at Good Samaritan Hospital.
The victim has both a Dayton Firearms Owner's Identification Card and Montgomery County Concealed Carry Card, police said.
Be Ever Vigilant!
A happy ending would have been TWO perps shot twice in the torso and once in the head
At least he was called a victim, consistently too. Now if they'd just have called his assailants that, rather than "gunmen". Sounds like the defender is a real gunman.
I can't wait for a full report from Amnesty International and the ACLU.
If concealed-carry permits can save 'one child's life' it is worth it. Take that you stupid libs.
Yes, there are still some normal people in Ohio.

Several years ago, a clerk in a convenience store nailed a would-be robber, hitting him three times with his 9mm.
Perp lived.
I went down to the store, shook his hand, and gave him a box of the best hollowpoints money can buy in case there was a "next time".

G32: that's the `flat' .45? I'm looking at both a Glock 17 and CZ P-01.
Glocks cycle just about anything, don't they? I have a Browning 9 mm that objects at times to anything but hardball rounds.
Quite a number of years ago, a close friend, then a Houston Police officer, got a call of armed robbery in progress. He and his HPD partner responded. Gunfight ensued. My friend fired five (5) .45ACP shots, and got three torso hits on one of the bad guys. Bad guy lived, but wears a colostemy bag to empty his bowels. Can't ever tell what will happen in a gunfight.
Semper Fi, Mike.
Too bad the perps arent dead and the shooter unkown
and the cops content with what happend.
imo
I like that!
You sound like a man of my own heart, I carry a Delta Elite and keep my D-E Gold Cup in my night stand. 10mm holes are quite big in and out, especially with hollow points.
I love the midsize Glock frame.. The 19, 23, and 32. To me, the .357 Sig 125gr at 1350fps is the best. 14 shots of it. Heavy power.
When you start a sing/song like that you just HAVE to finish it - "That way your sure they always stay dead"
A great load if you only want to make one shot every 30 seconds while recovering from the massive recoil. :-/
The .40 S&W works quite well with 155gr.JHPs.
I'm 6' 2" and almost 300 ( :-( ) lbs. What recoil?
