These two go with me where ever I go:

Zeus (70lb Staffy, yes, that's a 6' long, 4" diameter birch log)

And Trapper (130lbs of Dane\APBT)

Two weeks ago I had a road rage incident with an obviously either unstable guy or he was just having a REALLY bad day. At the next light, he jumped out of his car, ran up to the passenger side of my truck, slammed his hands on the side of my truck, and started screaming 'colorful' words at me. But the time the second word came out of his mouth, the two above who were resting comfortably on the floor launched up and sounded off. I do think I saw a stain down the front of his pants as he sprinted back to his car....

Awesome story, I am getting ready to bring home another Rottweiler, I just saw on the news of this idiot who tried to rob a jewelry store in CA, the clerk wrestled with him for the gun until 140 lbs of Rottweiler fury came and kicked his @ss. Got me all pumped up about dogs for protection.

I just bought a Springfield Armory XD-40 sub compact. I wanted something a bit bigger than my LCP.

Not opposed to weapons just find they are unnecessary, and for 99% of people are more dangerous to the one carrying in a defense situation than to the perp. You have to be willing to pull it and fire......first! Most talk a good line of bs/bravado and most won't do that.

Please stay on topic so we don't end up locking this thread for degrading into a debate on issues.

There are lots of other places to debate on the internet.

Thanks.

Ray, I don’t blame or question you one bit for wanting to have a permit. I lived in San Diego for years and it was one of those counties here in CA that was real hard to obtain one so I gave up on the thought a while ago. I believe within the last year (give or take) that some Fed judges ruled that denying people a CCW permit was unconstitutional under certain situations and now more permits are being issued.
I now live just north of SD and this county has always issued them with much less hassle. I’ve considered applying for one, but still undecided if I want the responsibility that goes with it. It’s something I think about frequently though.

Another good choice for a comfortable to carry/easy to shoot weapon is the 9mm Makarov, official sidearm of the former eastern block countries.
