Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Gun advocates plan 5k run I commented on this on another forum I frequent. Although I've done a lot of running with my gun, it has been in a holster (shorts) designed (generally) for that activity. My OC holster doesn't go with running shorts. My IWB holster could probably work, but it would be bouncing a lot. I love the idea, but how many people have attempted to run with their gun? |

Have you seen these? http://www.pistolwear.com/ProductDetail.jsp?LISTID=ia1321470134895 I personally would not do so. shorts and shoes are all I care to wear, but some say they work. |

I'm not sure one of the Mr Potato Head type ARs would be such a hot idea, though. |

Extreme Veteran 700 Tucson | Subject: RE: Gun advocates plan 5k run I use the Undertech concealment shorts. I'm not sure I'm a fan of any kind of belly band - I hate having my fuel belt around my waist. Plus it doesn't work so well if I only run in shorts & a bra. :-) |

Pro 15655 | Subject: RE: Gun advocates plan 5k run The only way I'm running with a gun is if someone is chasing me with a bigger gun. I can't even stand walking around with one....in fact, after nearly 30 years of carrying one for 8 hours a day I blame the damn thing for most of my hip arthritis.

Two things: I thought size didn't matter. Gun size, that is. Carrying a gun gave you hip arthritis? Really? Maybe you needed a, um, smaller gun. |

Two things: I thought size didn't matter. Gun size, that is. Carrying a gun gave you hip arthritis? Really? Maybe you needed a, um, smaller gun. Who knows....all I know is that I have advanced arthritis in my left hip and none in my right. The only difference between the two is that I carried an extra 3-4 lbs. on my right hip for many years. I can't wait to retire just so I don't have to carry a gun anymore.....what a pain in the arse. I haven't carried a gun off duty in over 20 years...I guess I'm just not scared enough. |

I gotta pick on this. I'm not scared, but I'm a 125 lb female....I'm not going to overpower most men. That's just reality; and out running alone in a semi-rural area? Yeah, I don't have a super chance w/o a gun or knife. No one is going to hear me scream. (the most exciting part of that response - the fact I got to type 1-2-5......I haven't been that in...umm well like 10 years probably!) |

I absolutely stand by your right to carry a gun in any situation you deem necessary. In fact, I should probably carry one more than I do but I'm just tired of it......outside of work I see it as a PITA. "Scared" was probably the wrong word and I don't blame you for picking on it. I just don't see the world as a place where I'm going to be attacked. |

I just don't see the world as a place where I'm going to be attacked. I, personally, am all for a woman's right to choose. This includes her own decision as to whether or not to carry defensive items as well as to what extent. I also haven't been in a car wreck of any sort since about 1985 but I wear my seatbelt regularly, haven't had a flat in years, yet I burn more gas carrying a spare, don't believe my kitchen is going to catch fire tomorrow yet I have an extinguisher. I, too, have carried a firearm most of my life and it's just part of putting clothing on now. No more, no less. |
