Since when did I need a permit?

Really. I've packed my whole life. I do have a permit these days. I live in a Constitutional Carry State, but the permit is good for twenty some odd other states as well.

G'Morning, y'all. Going food shopping a day early. So I can play it lazy tomorrow, ok lazier than usual.
Being a plant felon it's not worth the nickel it would cost me to possess gun or ammo...

The second amendment guarantees our right to bear arms, but individual locals have passed ordinances dictating when and where.

I once paid a fine for discharging a pistol in a national forest and was told that while the second amendment guaranteed my right to bear a firearm in a national forest, it didn't give me permission to discharge it.

Locally they have passed laws forbidding even registered concealed carry in public buildings or spaces. Define public space?? The streets and parks???

Chip, chip, chip.................

Morning OFC. Happy shatterday!

I have guns but I hope I never have to use them. Funny as a boy growing up I hunted year around. I was a country boy back then and had some kind of a gun at arms reach almost all the time. Today, a city boy and the guns are dormant and nevsr seen. I have a pellet gun ready for varmits and that is it.

Girls get tea today.... brewing as we speak. Should be done in 3 hours or so. Also just pulled a plant for 48 hrs of dark before harvest. That will take my morning.....cutting the grass after, that is my afternoon. Would like to watch a bit of the US Open. I played Torrey Pines once, beautiful course.

I suppose I should take the dog out back and see if the rabbits have been in the garden.

Where I live it is defined very clearly, bars and restaurants, depends on percentage of food to alcohol served, and whether you have owner permission in some cases. Gatherings of certain numbers, I forget, 2500 IIRC, Banks obviously. Business's can elect to go no gun, and there are a few, but plaintiffs attorneys will allege negligence on part of business owner for not allowing people to defend themselves in their establishments. Churches have previously been on the no carry list, but all that is in flux since several shootings against churches across the nation have been publicized.

Oddly, even before concealed carry, I argued that open carry would have been not banned in many cases, like walking down the street with one on your hip. Not concealed, so.... Now its more confusing to me, open carry now definitely ok here, but never felt comfortable with it. proper concealment doesn't make people nervous like seeing someone with one on the hip, or AR over the shoulder. If someone comes up behind one carrying, grabs it from holster and kick/pushes them away, suddenly someone is armed....just like concealed better.

Some gun laws are irrational. Mainly because anti gun folks are just not familiar with firearms, so laws are not always clear. Short barreled rifles for instance. If I want my AR15 rifle to have a shorter that 16" barrel, I must apply for a tax stamp and pay 200 bucks. Now if that same gun is an AR15 pistol, (the only difference being the stock/but part that normally goes against your shoulder, is now a brace to steady in pistol use. built as a pistol, you are fine. What if they caught you firing it from the shoulder, instead of using as a pistol brace, well, I do not know. On the other hand, the whole idea of banning SBR is silly. Same with shot guns. Typically, barrel must be 18" or longer, but....several manufacturers are making 12 gauge shot guns with not only a way shorter barrel, but even overall length including stock appears way to short and requiring tax stamp? Nope, it is categorized separately as "Any other firearm" or something like that, so it's fine.

Don't get me started on suppressors....still need a tax stamp and trust, like other NFA items

Afternoon. The grow has been given beneficial tea, pruned and fed. Lawn in mowed trimmed and edged. Here are some pictures of this years work. Mrs Pute and I have worked hard again this year.....neighbors hate me....ha ha!

Nice thing about being a meticulous grower is it carries over into you lawn and garden. I love what I do and I hope it shows.

Back when they banned mags over ten rounds, I'd bought a Walther P99. It came with the baby mags. I got ahold of a guy in Germany that had bodies, springs, followers, etc. for the full sized mags. Ordered a few dozen. Legal to import, just a no-no to put together. All of the parts magickly found themselves together one night and I kept a few and sold the rest.
The dude thanked me for my business and asked if there was anything else In needed. I told him I'd like a factory laser light for a P22. He informed me that lasers were illegal in Germany, but he'd be happy to sell me a suppressor for it. Talk about temptation. The 10 years/10,000 dollar thing just wouldn't let me.

Looks great Pute.

 

[ROSTERMAN]

Awesome Job Mr Putes

 

[Hippie420]

If'n I had a yard that small, I'd sell my mower and cut it with a pair of pinking shears.

 

[pute]

Well, it's dark now....I will show you the back tomorrow.

 

[Drifting13]
