OUTRAGE!

I would evaluate the competancy of the oc'er.

if he seems unsafe (playing on the equipment, climbing, etc. I would pack up and leave

If he was standing off to the side, sitting on a bench, etc. I wouldn't give a second thought about it.



I have left retail stores before because kids were playing around and doing dangerous things.
My saftey is worth more than whatever I am doing there,
it's not about the gun its about my evaluation of how safe/stable that stranger is.

I'd only have a problem with the 1911 in .40. But I'm an originalist too, so that's not saying much.



It's before Memorial Day and after Labor Day that you don't wear white.

White Chuck Taylors 365 days a year when I was a kid. I always get confused on that one. Thanks for clearing me up!!!

...a RAIL on top of a 1911?? In a .40???
Oh, good God you BET I'd be making an issue! GROSS.

If you were at a playground, and one of the dads there had a 40 caliber 1911 w/ top rail and red dot sight in a Ghost Holster at a 45 degree forward cant,

Would you make an issue out of it "pointing" at the kids EVEN THO IT WAS IN the holster?

At the very MOST, it might have muzzled the kids lower 50% of their body once or twice, and while he was up on the walkway, but there was a lot of steel and bars etc between him and the kids.

I just wonder how INGO feels about this.

This is a joke, right? If you muzzle my kid or me with your loaded gun, then yes, we would definitely have a problem.

No one wants to see the hole in the end of your gun.

Dom, admit it; you were just stoked by his uber-coolness!!

If A guy was open carrying his race gun in a gun games rig I would not think too much of his common sense, and avoid him.

 

[jylederman]

I would have left. The fact is that most likely nothing would have happened, but why even chance it. He obviously was just trying to show it off, that isn't exactly the gun to oc

PEOPLE....point guns at you. GUNS....in a holser, on a table, on the floor....aren't pointed at anything. They are just there.

Maybe he was on his way to/from a competition.

 

[inlineman]

Most criminals dont open carry,its his right.Probably foolishness on his part but nonetheless his right.

It isn't just 16 year old girls. People of all ages can't seem to drive any more without playing with their phone.

True that! For giggles...On my 7 mile trek home yesterday I counted 17 potential murderers using their phone while driving. They were of all ages. Also, we have to remember it is not the phone that would be to blame!

 

[BlueEagle]

If its holstered and secured, it wouldn't bother me.

Additionally, I have no children nor plans for children, so that may impact my decision.

So, is it o.k. to just set a gun down on the bench at the range facing any direction?
A little common sense please!!!!
Even when I'm at home, if I unholster and set my gun down, I "point it at the wall, away from any people or traffic pattern in the house, and there it remains "POINTED"!!!



And I probably would be concerned with anyone's weapon "pointing" at ANYBODY!!!

You are still talking about handling a gun.

"Setting a gun down" is handling it.

"Unholster and set down" is handling it.

Do you really not see the difference in leaving it holstered or once it's not being handled?

Of course I do!
Just saying, a little extra precaution is a good thing!

 

[bnatc]

I wouldn't worry about it, everyone knows that 1911's are obsolete!! Why worry about an obsolete weapon.

 

[under32hurts]

IMHO, if he is open carrying that rig, with red dots and ghost holster, he is starving for attention anyway.....careful, it may not be the attention your looking for Buddy! Jus' Sayin'!

 

[Hookeye]

Probably wanted to get noticed by INGO folks
