Because there are a lot of bad people out there with a total disregard for life that some of us like to protect ourselves from. Nuff Said!

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

Don't carry but some folks I ride with do and I'm sure there are some pack'n that I'm not aware of.

Be aware...(edit) can happen. Most are responsible. There is that one idiot....

A story...

Guy rents one of my atv's for his friend after two months earlier rolling one of my rentals down a mountain. He was being an idiot (he bought the atv).

A few days later me and friend are sitting in the cook house sipping on a whiskey and here comes renter riding down the hill and goes down to my cabin and parks the atv and walks up the hill to the cook house. He comes in and says he'll square up on the atv rental in the morning and that there is a slow leak in the front left tire. I say ok, see ya in the morn'n. He says good night. I say good night. He walks up the hill to his cabin. Next morin'n I go out and put boot on left front tire. Flat. I ride atv up to my shop, put air in tire. Ssssssssss. Small hole just in side of tread. Put in plug. Add air. Sssssssss. Crap! Just used last plug. I usually keep plug kit and fix-a-flat in tool compartment of atvs. I goes to tool compartment. No fix-a-flat. Blood and feathers in tool compartment. Hmmm. No seasons open. Oh well, not my problem. Find plug kit. Find hole just above rim on inside of tire. Light in my head goes on!!! Yup. That's what happened. Seems that when they got back to cabin night before, renter was removing pack from front of his atv when a loaded pistol in pack discharged just missing his friends thigh and went through my tire. Renter bought new tire.

Be careful and pay attention. (edit) happens.

As my father always said, (he was a cop 22yrs) "better to be caught with one then without one" And why would you tell any one you are packing?

Re: Anyone Carry while riding

RDLEE,

I carry because the badguys don't JUST shoot badguys. I refuse to be a victim. And part of my responsibility to my wife & kids is to be able to protect them as well as me. Tracy

Imlive in Memphis Tn and that is way good enough reason to carry and be trained to use it. It just simple protection around here. Lots of thugs!
