Re: rifle vs unholstered handgun for checking out trespass situation
Unless this is a dirt bag business that is just throwing tires in one spot all the time I would bet this is a dump magnet location and there are many throwing garbage and tires there. A dump magnet is a place that already has debris located there, is easy to access and is remote enough to conceal the perps. We do clean ups on forestry roads or at least we did before it became a waste of time when landfill prices went sky high.
We found that if you clean the place up, (using Cleanscape grants or asking for volunteer help from Watershed Groups, etc and the municipality), you can then bar access from the site using large rocks, trees, etc so they can't pull off the road then placard it with signs showing was an illegal dump and try your hand at game cameras. Conceal carry in daylight. Stealth observe looking for license plates at night if you find them on your property. Call the police to document all the activity but avoid a confrontation over garbage that could get you on the nightly news. Any of these punks trespassing and dumping on your property could easily be carrying legal or illegal and may be drinking or high on the drug of the day. It isn't worth it and it's hard as hell to stop once it starts but it can be done the right way!Engineers make things idiot proof! Evolution makes better idiots!

Re: rifle vs unholstered handgun for checking out trespass situation
It's really best not to be confrontational when it comes to firearms. Maybe set up a security camera and catch these individuals and have them prosecuted. Definitely not a good situation I hope they stop bothering your gf and whatnot. Again, they're breaking the law, it's a police matter.

Re: rifle vs unholstered handgun for checking out trespass situation
IMO to the second part of your question, handgun, holstered with the safety off and strap open and rifle shouldn't matter how it's carried just don't point it at anyone. Like I said before though, in this type of situation since it's not a physical threat to her, at least not seemingly, just get the police involved and be done with it.

Re: rifle vs unholstered handgun for checking out trespass situation
I know I'm late to the party but here's my opinion. I would not want to be the one who has to explain in court why I armed myself specifically to go chase off trespassers who were no specific threat to me at the time. That seems like escalating the situation. now if you are already a regular carrier and you go to investigate some sort of noise and you are carrying because you always do then if things escalate to a true self defense situation it isn't because you escalated it.
