DONALD TRUMP HAS NEWS FOR ALL CONCEALED CARRY HOLDERS...
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is serious about the right to bear arms. Our country is at a time of potential threat from ISIS terrorists and with an influx of Syrian refugees, many are on high alert. Trump issued a statement to Breitbart calling for all concealed carry permit holders to actually carry.
He said"
"There are nearly 13 million concealed carry permit holders in the United States who are part of the 100 million gun owners who defend the Constitutional right to "keep and bear arms." This fundamental liberty is held closest by those who have gone through the process of vetting required to be entrusted with the ability to defend themselves, their families and their property with concealed weapons. The concept of concealed carry is as much intended to deter criminal activity as it is to provide direct defense of those who have those permits. Not all concealed carry permit holders "carry" all the time. Thus, the deterrent value is that those who might contemplate criminal behavior will think twice when that doubt exists.
Carrying a weapon is not always feasible or appropriate. However, given the increased tensions that are the result of continued, escalating terrorism around the world, more legitimately armed individuals on the streets is a positive outcome. Each permit holder must make the decision to carry or not carry. I will carry more often than I have in the past, and I am sure other concealed permit holders will do the same. Do we have an obligation to carry? The answer is "yes," but we must do it in such a way as to raise serious doubts in the minds of those who might be considering violence in America...

(And make sure it is a 44 magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world...)
I never heard him speak if he had a great and beautiful handgun.
Once again Trump is leading where no one else dares tread. Armed Americans, absolutely appropriate and necessary
Might want to back away from the worship trough....just saying
A woman called for Trump assassination in MA. At the rally. It’s on Gateway Pundit now.
Unfortunately not here in NJ
Taking a shotgun 101 class on Saturday and will purchase (1st one), any suggestions???
When pistol permit comes in then I’ll get the 38 that I like.
My neighborhood is not a scary place, just a small town neighborhood.
Be safe.
He has a good point. I’ve been a CC for over 20 years. The only time I carry is out in the woods. I have just recently considered carrying my 357 revolver or XD40. I think going out and buying one of those small pocket revolvers would be a better investment than a revolver.
For believers of maximum state’s rights and limited federal government, that’s a poor idea.
What he needs to do is to get rid of all restrictive federal laws and leave it up to the states what they want to do with guns. But what is paramount is to uphold the 2A. That is the only job the feds should have regarding guns, which is to stop a state from being restrictive.
So in essence, the policy I sorta outlined above would make CC laws the same for all states.
If “caught” in a gun free zone (like a store..Goodyear?) you will be asked to leave. If you do not leave, then you are charged with trespassing, a misdemeanor. But don’t get caught. If you are carrying concealed properly, who will know? The whole idea of CCW is that NOBODY knows you have a weapon. I’m waiting for the news report of the first jihadi taken down by a citizen. (And that will probably happen in a gun free (killing) zone.
When I go out I always carry my concealed .380 “buddy.”
Now, living in Texas, I will be able to open carry beginning January 1, 2016.
Ain’t living in Texas great!
I have read that he has a CCW and usually caries a compact 1911 type but have no proof.
Still a Cruz fan who like Trump — but I’m starting to love Trump (in a non-touchy-feely manly way...).
Hardly. That was before we made women more than fifty percent of the electorate.
That "The Donald" is not only talking about it, but pushing it into the front row of popular culture is nothing short of revolutionary.
My policeman friend has pretty much confirmed the above.
When I carry, my Glock never has a round chambered. Will only take 2 seconds, but it might give away my intentions. It is the price I pay for increased safety.
ditto
Great! I really like Cruz too!
There are several card-carrying morons here in FR who regularly post some stupid lying Maximum-BS rating that gives Trump a yellow dot instead of a green dot on the 2nd amendment. Benighted fools are paid liars?
Good for you! Be careful out there.
“And some folks are still saying he’s not solid on gun rights.”
I haven’t heard any politician any time being so pro-gun. Not just on our rights, but to follow through with actions to use those rights.
[I think going out and buying one of those small pocket revolvers would be a better investment than a revolver.]
I agree.
“Trump: There are nearly 13 million concealed carry permit holders in the United States who are part of the 100 million gun owners who defend the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms.”
And his naysayers say he doesn’t know or quote the Constitution- he’s got the most important parts down!
