Found this site and thought, I ought to be a member of this forum, so...here I am!

Located in northwest Arkansas. Just getting back into powderburners for CC and fun!
 
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here it goes. I'm new to carry concealed, but I am having a hard time carrying. It seems everywhere I go, they have signs of no weapons. Having it in my vehicle I feel defeats the purpose of CC. How does everyone else carry without breaking the rules.
 
Another new member here from the unfriendly gun state of NY! Just starting out on saga to get a CC permit that will likely take at least 8 months.
This site is VERY helpful!!
 
Hello all, my name is Karl. I reside in cook county Illinois, unfortunately! Anyway I recently applied for the Utah CC permit and am anxiously awaiting its arrival! See y'all in the forums.
 
you will find that lots of places say no weapons just remember that you have a ccp if you don't tell they don't know i do how ever recommend that you do not take your weapon into place that have the right to search you ie courts,police or federal buildings
 
Don't get me wrong, I understand that there are places that I cannot or will not carry. Its just that I felt inconvenienced, going to a store seeing the sign then having to go back to the car. Potentially exposing that I was carrying. So I was just wondering if besides not doing business those places. How do others handle those situations. Without knowing ahead of time.
 
I have come across the same thing, but keep in mind Federal Buildings/Municiple Buildings/Courts etc. are where you certainly
Can Not carry. Some locations that I've been, like casinos (Nevada), have the policy of "No Firearms". After speaking
with security officers in several locations, they explained it this way: They want you to refrain from "Carrying", but if known that
you are (YOUR FAULT), they would ask you to leave it in your vehicle/or if given an arguement over that, then you have to leave their property. No criminal charges, just the gun leaves, or you & the gun leaves.
If not a "Governmental" building, ask the establishment about how they handle armed customers. My feelings are,
carried correctly, no one should be aware you're armed. So as long as I know I'm legal, without violating any laws, I carry into
establishments with signs denoting "No Firearms". A few robberies and a rape had occured at a casino my wife and I frequent.
In this economy, people pay attention to who's walking out "winners", so alert leavel yellow.
Hope this helps you out,
Stay Safe & Welcome to the site from another "newby".

Anyone here tried Grady's Outdoors new CWP Classes? We've seen it in their flyer recently, so its pretty new. Thanks!
 
New guy here - a resident of, and CCW permit holder in North Carolina. I'm originally from Iowa. I just bought a Ruger LC9. It's my first pistol. I haven't taken it to the range yet, but will this coming weekend. I've been putting it through it's paces using snap caps and I like it a lot so far. It's the LC9 without a laser. I'm an iron sites kind of guy, and if I need a gun at night, it will be my Remington 870 anyway.

I don't plan on concealed carrying much since most of my trips away from home are to a university campus, or to the sports bar (both are against the law in NC). I definitely will for dog walks, camping trips, and other excursions.

I don't have much for an arsenal, just a Remington 870 12 gauge for pheasants and ducks, and a .22 for rabbits and plinking targets. My other hobbies are homebrewing, cycling, and cheering for the Iowa State Cyclones, and the NC State Wolfpack (both of my Alma Maters).
 
To all I have not Welcomed!


Welcome!


And for all of those who are Active Duty Military or Veterans,

Thank you for your Service!
 
Hello all. I have been a CCW permit holder for a while now, but I decided to sign up here on this victorious day to soon have CCW of some for or fashion in Illinois.
 
I am new to the forum, and I figured I'd stop by here for a little intro.

My name is Scott. I am a full time LEO (experience in both Patrol and Warrant Service Team) and also own my own (small) training company in Southwest Missouri.

I began teaching CCW classes for another company in 2008. A strong believer in the KISS principal, in 2010 I began teaching on my own. In 2011 I expanded my curriculum and began to offer LE Only courses (MO POST-approved). In Feb of 2012 the previously LE only classes were opened to the general public.

Our standard courses are: MO CCW, Tactical Pistolcraft, Tactical Pistol 1, Tactical Pistol 2, Tactical Carbine, and Tactical Use of Cover for Patrol. We offer both local and mobile courses.

Feel free to ask any questions or make any comments. I will help in any way I can.
