    Cool Hi..New Forum Member

    Hey all.....

    I have been lurking around and trying to find a legit forum that not only services it's members but knows the facts about the laws .

    I am a VV as you guessed and an ex-Marine.
    I am disabled though live a full life.
    Having made a good living as a musician after VN I am now able to enjoy my rights to carry and feel safe in a State that honors our right as American to carry and own firearms.
    It's terrible when the police are overwhelmed by laws, and gangs, and organized crime and it seems that the "SCUM" has more right than there victims do.
    Especially in a place like NYC all they did with that law was ensure that the only people carrying were thugs, and now made US those who did not commit the crimes...criminalls by only wanting to be able to walk the streets where we lived without fear of being held up or mugged or just beat up for the hell of it.

    Having moved here from NYC over 25 years ago it is nice to be able to carry concealed and purchase without a mandatory 1 year term in State Pen.
    Having lived there when crime was rampant you had to take a chance and protect yourself.
    The one year mandatory jail term was NO deterrant to DEATH so though the law still stands most people take the chance n carry something small like a....25 or.22.
    Now being able to put my 9MM in my jacket and let the surprise be on the other foot makes one feel more comfy.
    Walking with a limp n cane and a car with handi cap plates is no longer a GREEN LIGHT to those who would normally see me as a target.

    Still though getting my wife to carry is not a problem but her HESITANCE TO USE it scares me.
    I sent her to training, I did not think the way the USMC taught me was a good way to teach her. Though she did excellent and with my .357 it is her INABILITY to even say that she would use it scares me to the point that I no longer have her carrying for fear it will end up being taken and used against her.
    I now have her carrying a High Volt Stun Gun...still my concern of her using it vs use without hesitation worries me.

    So part of my reason joining here is in hopes of finding a club in BUCKS CTY that she can meet other people in the same situation.Maybe find another woman who thinks as she does but is able to understand rather be alive n safe than live in fear or be a victim.

    Though as a kid I hunted, once seeing and being a part of combat in
    SE Asia seeing what these guns really do changed me from killing animals for sport.
    I prefer to enjoy our local wildlife and find it sickening that so many so called MEN let out there frustrations on squirrels, rabbits, coyotes,turkey, deer etc.
    I do NOT have a problem with legit hunter who EAT WHAT THEY KILL....but my days of shooting n killing for the hell of it ended after leaving NAMN.
    Though I have no problem with defending myself and my family.

    So if any of you guys are in the same situation with your wives please leave a reply or contact me and let me know how you made out.
    What did you do to get your wife to carry but carry with NO HESITATION???.

    Also if anyone is aware of a local club in Bucks Cty please let me know how to contact someone n join.

    Thanks.... Have a good one and I look forward to meeting the rest of ya as we meet her on the forum.

    Peace,
    J
