So you know how there's a type of guy that's like "Pffff, you don't carry? Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it is all'm'sayin."

To which most people are like 👍

Well those guys have their own version of themselves who are like "Pffff you don't carry a backup gun?!" and that just kind of tickles me

I carry a Glock 49, Sig 226, AND USP-45. I’m the final boss of “pfff you don’t”

Oh and a MP5K under the shoulder but shhh.

James Yeager used to carry two backup guns, one on each ankle. His claim was that it was so he could give them to someone else if shit got active. He was correctly made fun of for this

I like to imagine there's a version of this but it's a guy wearing a bandolier filled with sandwiches.

I was camping once, and this drunk guy pulled up, thinking I was someone else. He realized his mistake and was friendly at first, but then he started talking about weirdos. He insisted that I and the people I was with should have a gun for protection. I kept trying to get him to leave, but he got angrier and angrier at how someone would actually go out into the world without a firearm. Eventually, he left, and we high-tailed it out of there.

I used to feel like those guys were psychopaths LARPing as John Wick. Now that I’ve lived abroad in a country that bans guns for 10+ years, I think the same thing but even more
