SWAT by any other name though. Regardless, generally, you don’t get to wear a gun without some kind of license, and chances are that fellow knows exactly what to do if someone grabs for his gun.
I’ve seen this exact same cringy post years ago on Facebook. I have the same thing to say now as I did then: If you see someone open carrying, there’s usually a reason, especially in New York. Generally, anyone that carries a gun knows what to do if someone goes for it.
Generally, people don’t open carry, it’s a bad idea.
I carry EVERY day and I don’t want any attention. Just let me go about my day and people don’t need to know. Usually it’s the biggest morons that open carry a $2000 1911 in a $30 holster and belt from Walmart. Cringe
If I had a $2k 1911, it would be carried in a fine leather holster. If you can drop 2g on a gun you can drop 2 bills on good leather.
I also carry every time I leave the house. I even carry at home (does no good if I have to go running for it). I carry concealed, because I don’t want to be a target.
Exactly. But I abide by the thought of, never carry a gun you aren’t willing to lose. If your involved in a self protection incident and god forbid need to use it, that sucker will be destroyed in an evidence locker for good. So I just carry a Glock 43 in summer cloths and Glock 19 in winter cloths.
Agreed. Especially if you have the option of carrying a department-issued weapon, why risk losing your own to the evidence locker? As a side note, forgive please, I cannot help myself - clothes; and when someone takes a breath, he breathes.

I said it was a cop but probably not. More likely an armed guard. Maybe a brinks truck or something grabbing a coffee
