Excercising (sp?) my right to OC is why I feel like doing this. I haven't been able to in the past year.

Though, I am curious as to the possible reaction.
What kind of long gun you lookin' to OC?


Couldn't you OC with a handgun instead of with a long gun?

Yes I could, but why? I already have done that, and I haven't been able to OC for a year now because I have been in Texas.

Why do you care anyway?

I don't follow your thinking. OK. Let's see if I got it right:

1. You have OC'd before--a handgun. In UT.

2. You have been in Texas for a year. No opportunity to OC ahandgun.

3. You miss OCing. A handgun.

4. You're going back to UT. You will be able to do what you miss. OC a handgun.

5. Instead, you want to OC something different. A rifle.

6. Your motivation to OC a rifle is to do something you haven't done. To get a "reaction." To be a "test case."


That about it, thx?

Test case? No, I am merely curious as to the possible reaction. It is not the reason I want to do this.

Hank, join the military, be separated from your family for a year, have nearly all liberties stripped, wake up at 3 in the morning everyday except for saturday and sunday, wake up and pull guard duty in the middle of the night several nights a week, pull many 24 hour shifts as well, etc, etc. Then see how you feel about your liberty.

If you have already done this, then you should know how I feel.

You said said the opposite in your original post.

Texas sucks. I think I may end up OCing myself a long gun when I get back to Utah.

Perfect opportunity to get back to my regularly scheduled programming.

Guess I want to be the test case

So lets figure this out. You are in Texas. Open Carry of a long arm is legal in Texas. But you miss carrying openly sooooo much that you need to wait to come back to Utah, and carry a long arm here?

What gives, turbo? Texas needs the test case more than we do. Go carry your M44 in San Antonio and let us know how that goes.

Whoops, forgot what I had originally posted. Touche SGT Jensen.

Anyway, I'm waiting till I get back to Utah so that I don't have to fight one two fronts.

I don't want to have to fight both the Texas department of justice and the UCMJ at the same time.

I have next to no chance of winning against the UCMJ.

Anyway, the OP was just musing and frustration. After rethinking this, I do not want to be the test case.

My wife and two daughters take priority. And in my defense, nearly a month had elapsed between the OP and the post saying I did not want to be the test case.

I have thought about OC'ing a fully automatic supressed pistol... you know like a M10 or M11... just one or two problems... I don't have the BATFE tax stamp and I don't have the weapon or the silencer...

I wonder if we could get the State Legislature to repeal their ban on Concealed carry of fully automatic or supressed weapons... LOL Just wishfull thinking, I guess!

Why would you want to carry a fully auto supressed pistol?

Do you mean...as a personal defense weapon?

If so, isn't that a poor....very poor...choice for PD? Your idea isn't very realistic, IMO.

HankT,

Some of us drive Fords. Others drive Chevys, still others drive Cadillacs or Toyotas. Others have homes painted white, or green, or beige. Some homes are made of brick or stucco or even aluminum siding.

Basically as with cars, homes, firearms... I say let one drive in something they like that they can afford, or live in a home they like and can afford, or carry something they like and can afford.

As to Why?... Because under my US Constitutional 2nd ammendment guarantee, I CAN!

Hank T is, at the same time the most annoying person on this site and the most useful person on this site. He is useful because those activists that endure his badgering are much better equipped to deal with the antis that we encounter.

Thank you HankT for being such a freedom hating a**hole. It sharpens the message and awareness of the activists on this site.

Yep, the law makes no differentiation between long arms and pistols, and so you can oc your ar pistol. As long as it was manufactured as a pistol.

I am unsure however of your ability to cc an ar pistol. They are quite large.:)

hahhaa ok you guys will love this one!

go on youtube and type in VBR (i think that was it) its a belgium ammunition and weapons manufacturer, check out their videos of their awesome handgun with the retractable stock, armor piercing bullets, uses glock mags... very cool (and he conceals it!)

HanK T. it seems that YOU WERE THE ORIGINAL ONE to ask if this was as a PD type weapon. After reviewing the thread... I DON"T SEE WHERE I MENTIONED THIS AS A PERSONAL DEFENSE WEAPON!!!!

Don't attempt to give my discredit by suggesting that I was the one that made YOUR COMMENT!

Weather or Not Hank T thinks a fully automatic suppressed pistol would be a "very poor choice for a SD weapon" or not....

If the carrier of said weapon can reliably and quickly put 2 rounds in the center of presented mass, likes the feel of the weapon in the hand, legally possesses such weapon THEN IT DON"T MATTER WHAT HANK T. THINKS ABOUT IT or me or anyone else either for that matter... I say use it for a Self Defense Weapon.
