“Bringing a __________ to a gun fight”

[Geezerbiker]

Perhaps this sounds cowardly but I would stay home if I knew where I was going was dangerous and I couldn't pack.

I forget who said it (might have been Clint Smith), but the answer is: "If there is going to be a gunfight, and and you can't be elsewhere when it happens, then the things to bring are a rifle, and all your friends with rifles."

It was inevitable that this discussion would lead to knives so, once again, I will remind everyone that there are federal laws, there are fifty states that all have their own laws, and there's the District of Columbia. Know the laws of your state.

FYI, carrying bug spray in your vehicle is against the law in New Jersey.

What?!?!

So no one can buy bug spray in NJ? I mean, you can only buy it if you walk home with it?

No gun? Then one of these backing me up:

Kevin Rohrer, with that amount of displacement of the piece, they are going to have to relay the gun ..... I don't want them sending anything danger close until they are again zero mils .....friendly fire ..... isn't.

Okay, that's two: Florida and Kentucky.

The other permits I have are Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Maine, and Connecticut. Those are all for handguns (some say pistol and revolver) only.

What other states' permits cover knives (or combat tomahawks) and other weapons in addition to handguns?

Iowa issues a permit to carry weapons. I assumed all states treated concealed carry of knives(with blade over 5 inches) and other "deadly items" in a similar manner, but apparently must be wrong.
