they missed......and took of like a bat out of hell......I looked for that truck for about 2 months after.
But I have a good trespassing story...same property...this was early summer '07
Every blind has some sort of heat system in it....well I built my Grandfather(passed about 10 yrs ago) a blind with a small wood burner.It was near a fence line.....well my POS neighbor's nephew stole the wood burner...he has the property at that fence line(also his main trail is along the fence)..the other property around me is state land that is land locked.Well...after a note left on their gate stating I wanted it back I got a phone call....."well..it wasnt us"...I knew it was so I waited a few months.I got a good friend that hunts with me....and went searching(I know we were trespassing)....well there it was in one of their blinds.Instead of taking it back....I shoved a roll of blackjacks and about a dozen bottle rokets in the exhaust pipe.
A couple days after opening day at about 6:45am there it goes...sounded like July 4th......LMAO I went around to their gate and placed another note....."I will take my stove back now.....and stay the F@#$ off my property".......the next morning the stove was by my gate on my way in to hunt.
Sorry for the long story

I don't mean to start an argument but that's not very good advice.
First, why do you carry a firearm? ....... For self protection (or family protection).
Second, When are you going to use a firearm that you carry? ...... To protect yourself or family (i.e. have to shoot a bad guy).
Third, What's going to happen if your involved in a shooting? ...... The police are going to arrive and investigate.
Fourth, What's going to happen to you (i.e. carryng without a permit) even if it's a justifiable shooting? ...... Your going to jail.
Not the best of out comes.
Take the time and spend the money to get a permit.

get a permit to carry. Got mine, and I am glad I have not had to use it. There are some bad people out there though so you can never be to safe, you should never have to feel threatened anywhere, especially on your own property, stuff like that really p's me off. Glad everything worked out ok for ya though.

make sure you scrutinize your permit when it arrives.. and dont sign it if theres an error... there was a misprint on mine and i had to go to the court house to get it re-printed...

but lately ive been carrying my Beretta yr round.. cuz ive been having some issues with my Kimber... sent it in to get fixed and came back with the same problems... and for a carry gun 100% reliability is a BIG factor... my beretta's never giving me a single problem since i bought it...
