What do Luger collectors carry?

Since we're being honest (but I hope not disagreeable), I cannot understand the feeling that one should not go armed.

The carrying of a handgun/firearm for defense is just that...for defense. It is to be used only in a desperate situation to defend the life and person of an innocent. I almost never have felt in a situation where I might need one, but it has happened. The guy who wanted me to run a red light so he
could too and got really p.o.ed when I wouldn't, chasing and threatening me, came very close to having my weapon pulled on him. The kid who rammed me on my motorcycle for fun when I was stopped was met with the threat of my fists (I wasn't carrying) and ran. I considered that an assualt on my life. There have been other times; not many, but they have happened.

If anyone has not been threatened, be prepared, it's likely to come. And not when expected.

I do my best to stay out of unsavory places and potentially dangerous ones. The firearm on my person is one more layer of safety for me and mine. I pray God I never have to use it.
