A CCW Gun: A Story of Dumb and Dumber.

[Adam Helmer]

BritRGJ,

Thanks for the information. A nice .38 Special or .357 revolver with adjustable sights would be a nice gun for you.

As for "cannon" handguns, the .500, and others, are a real handful. There is the single shot handgun called the Contender that goes from .22 caliber up to .45/70; depending on which barrels one buys. I have shot .30/30 and .35 Remington Contenders and they were enough for me.

I am a licensed dealer in Georgia.
I have always had a carry permit. I always felt that anyone who wanted one should be able to get a permit.
After I became a dealer I Have changed my mind.
In Georgia all you have to do is clear a background check and you will get a permit.
I see people get a permit and buy a pistol and don't know the first thing about handling a gun safely. They have never even fired a weapon.
I am in favor of training before carry permit. You should see some of the people who want to buy a gun.
I have refused to sell to some on them.
Georgia and any other state that has not training requirements should consider implementing mandatory training.

Off of my soap box

colonyfireasrms,

I hear you loud and clear. I agree there should be s requirment for basic handgun experience. Unfortuately, when handgun training is mandated, the anti's make sure NO Firearms Training Class is held, so then NO ONE can get a CCW.

I guess we should be glad that the rights apply to all and we just need to educate those with greatest need. I run several gun classes every year.
