T-Shirts

[telpinaro]

I've seen lots of t-shirts, stickers, and other things with slogans declaring support for the Second Amendment, stating "it's my right, not a privilege," or that my guns will be taken "out of my cold, dead, hands." Many various "tacticool" shirts as well, or just awesome pictures. A lot of them I really like, but I was wondering, are there any that say why we carry? Antis, clearly, don't get it, and many of them seem to view those shirts with trepidation. Where we see the truth, that we're simply trying to protect our rights and are willing to fight for them, all they see is someone willing to shoot lots of people (ridiculous).

No, I'm not saying we shouldn't wear them. The more times people wear them, the more often they'll start noticing, "But he seems so normal!" or "She was so nice!" I just tend to be more... well, I'm shy and don't like to stand out (my husband's been begging for me to dye my hair colorful or do something "adventurous" for a long time--might when he comes back for deployment even though it makes me nervous), plus I don't want a confrontation with my son around, and people are idiots. Are there any shirts that are a little more subtle, but get the point across? GunGoddess.com has some pretty ones I've got my eye on (maybe after Christmas), but I was thinking something like "Protected by Smith & Wesson" would be cool. Or maybe a picture of a gun with "for my family." Any ideas?

Sorry if this is in the wrong location... I wasn't sure where to post it!

I like to keep things low key when carrying. I only wear the gun shirts at the range.

Telpinaro,

As cheap as shirts are to print anymore, why don't you come up with a short concise list of reasons why you carry and have a shirt printed up. If people start liking them in your area, you could start selling them. It sounds like a great idea.

I was thinking about that... Think I'd have to have someone help me out though, as I'm not remotely artsy. I like 1's and 0's, thank you very much! (I will be printing a shirt that says "If you can read this, you have way too much time on your hands." in binary someday. I already know what it looks like.)

This is the last shirt I bought a few weeks ago. I wear firearm clothing whenever I want.

As to shirts that could persuade an anti gun wuss...yeah...I've got no hope for them.

Firefighter - that is some statement you're making!

More power to you.

I have yet to see a T shirt that is so profound it changed my mind about something. If you like it do it but don't expect to change the world

LMAO! Not exactly what I had in mind...

I don't expect to change the world... I just want something that suits me. I'm also not the type that people expect to be in to that sort of thing, so if I can alter the perception of one person just a little...

Hi telpinaro,

I can understand where you're coming from, as my wife and I both have CCW permits here in NC. I tend to be more aggressive in my choice of t-shirt messages, while my wife is much more low key.

That being said, take a look at the NRA women's section on NRA.org. Here's the link: Link Removed

You might find something there.

Best of luck, and carry on!

Regards,

David

I have bought quite a few from molonlabeshop.com lately that I like a lot. Not trying to convince anyone, just let them know how I feel.

You're probably right but I wear pro 2A tees just out of pride for the rights that the 2A bestow upon me.

I have our gun shop t-shirts and an NRA group therapy t-shirt currently. NRA CPI and RSO shirts will be ordered after the holidays and they'll pretty much tell where I stand.
