Concealed Carry Poll

[oneof79]

Something I've been wondering about.

How many people got their CC license then purchased their first gun?

How many people already had guns then got their CC license?

Didn't realize anyone had to purchase their first gun. You really ought to have half a dozen or so before you turn 18 IMHO.

Most definitely guns before the permit! I was concealed carrying yrs before the permit became law.

Some of us weren't fortunate enough to be raised around them. I didn't get my first gun until I was 23 and I bought it myself. The CCL didn't come until I was 30, almost a year ago.

Bought my first gun for protection, then realized I couldn't even legally carry it in the car to protect myself. So the license came very shortly after.

I grew up around guns, probably in the kind of scenario kd5rjz is envisioning. My home state didn't even offer CC when I was growing up; that was a happy benefit of setting up shop here in OK.

Hey, you know how us criminal element are when carrying our guns... 'trouble' is our middle name!

This could quite possibly be the most one-sided poll in the storied history of the OSA forum. So far, 49 to zip, zero, nada. Impressive.

I think your pole audience is skewed. The people on this forum are 'gun' people.

Most of my students do not own a gun and are taking instruction BEFORE they buy a gun. BUT you won't find them taking this pole.

You need a broader audience.
