Glock Hat = No Problem
« on: August 27, 2008, 08:46:51 PM »
Today I was sporting my new Team Glock hat with new tan shirt one size over for gun room.

I was packing a Ruger .380 in my back pocket and Glock 357 Sig on my hip.

I dropped off the wife and was heading home on the Interstate. When two guy in small car changed lanes into my lane of traffic.

The driver flipped ME the finger...

As they slowed down for me to pass...

I was working on how best to handel this problem without going for the 357 Sig on my hip.

Then I remembered I had the Team Glock Hat on.

As I pass the two guys they were getting mad for some reason...

Then the driver got a good look at me and the Team Glock hat I was wearing.

They stopped the finger stuff and the mad act then took the next exit off the interstate.

I though that was nice of them...

Now, I don't have to show them what a old guy with a gun can do in three seconds.

Just thought I would pass it on...

I would NOT count on that ever happen again.

But, it did today.

Be glad you didn't have an SR9 and the matching hat. They would have beat you to death before you could have ever gotten a round off with the herculean pull required to set it off. 
"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt

Ouch! :P

Glad road rage wasn't involved.  Bumper stickers work well too. Saw one that said: Glock is my co-pilot. 8)
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Very funny.  But true.

I don't know guys........if you were wearing the retrofitted SR9 hat they would know that you weren't carrying an SR9 but probably something that really works well, and they'd back off. Assuming of course that they know what an SR9 IS....it was hyped up and around so briefly before it turned to complete s***, the bad guys might not even know what an SR9 is.

Yep, everyone know what a GLOCK is and what it's used for...

As always, it's me and Gaston from now on.  ;)

One of the first rules of packing a gun, that I learned in the old days.

Was not to look like you have gun.

No logos, no camo, no stickers, and don't look out of place.

No long or heavy coats in the summer time stuff like that...

Having a logo hat sure help me a lot today.

I guess the best way to use a SR9, is throw it at your attacker like in the movies when a gun runs out of ammo.... ;D

I never could figure that one out??

Kind of alarming that you felt you needed to make that comment. Even if you meant it to be funny - it wasn't.
The flipped you off..... BFD
Remember from when you were a kid -  "sticks and stone may break my bones, but names will NEVER HURT me?"
Gestures count there too.

Do you really live or perform an act that requires you to have two firearms a all times? If you truly do, I'd look in to a new line of work, a change of lifestyle or location - just a thought.

Good luck in traffic today -
