    As a Brit, a Taff to be more precise, living in Canada, my Speed and Strength jacket has a concealed pocket for a gun, as it’s from the states. It’s ideal for my mobile/cell phone and maybe some mints.

    I would be seriously worried wearing a jacket that everybody knows about the concealed gun pocket as you go to get your phone out :joy:

    During the 1990s and early 2000s, I was very fortunate enough to do many business trips to Atlanta, GA (actually just outside Atlanta). I really enjoyed those trips, weekends exploring Georgia, and made a few good friends among the folks I worked with. One evening, out for dinner with a group of colleagues and friends, I made a very bad mistake. It was just after a mass shooting somewhere in the USA. We were relaxed, chatting and joking over a beer or three, and I made the mistake of questioning US gun ownership and lack of gun control laws (I might have used the word, 'madness')... Oh dear.... That soured the evening somewhat...

    Gun :eek: Why not be safe and just open the bloody throttle and watch those needles climb ;) And ofcourse pray that we don't get shot in the arse

    I guess the most offensive tool I ever carried on my bike is a small 3 inch folding knife during my Europe trip:D

    I can't imagine what it must be like to live in a culture where guns are freely available. I know things aren't perfect in our country at least there is limited chance that you will be confronted by somebody carrying a gun....

    Let’s face it guns of any type/caliber are not dangerous irrespective of where they are in the world,they’re no more dangerous than a feather duster.

    It’s the people that use them that make them dangerous.

    Just the same owning a motorcycle.
    I wouldn’t mind a pound £ for every time I’ve heard someone say that motorcycles are dangerous, no a motorcycle isn’t dangerous.
    It’s the people using them and other road users that make riding a motorcycle dangerous.

    I will stick to my 3" folding knife.

    Yes dilligaf.... Folding knife :joy:

    I even managed to bloody cut my finger trying to open that blade :(

    Imagine me with a gun..

    I'd probably have an accidental discharge and put a bloody hole on my motorbike tank and blow my bollocks n all :confused:

    Guns... No thank you

    They’re not dangerous at all,it’s human beings that make them dangerous.

    When we were kids, we used to put shotgun cartridges in a knot hole through a fence post and hit the detonator with a hammer and nail, it makes me shudder just thinking about it now.

    I live in the state of Indiana. I have a carry license which means I can carry a pistol out of my home. It does not have to be concealed however when I do choose to carry it I conceal it as to not draw undo attention to myself. Anyone over the age of 18 can purchase and carry a rifle in my state without a license which in my opinion is ridiculous however our constitution reserves their right to do so. I am not the guy to agree with making changes to the constitution because its a slippery slope. You can buy a handgun without a license but it cannot leave your home unless you are taking it to the range in which it must be in a locked case, placed in the trunk unloaded. Ammunition must be stored in a separate place in the vehicle.

    My license is for life since Im a veteran so even if I go nuts someday I wont have to get it renewed.
