What year did you first start carrying?

[360]

I am 40 and have carried since I was 18 years old. I applied for my LTCH the same day I turned 18. I'm glad I don't have to apply for my Indiana license ever again.

What year

1977 when I turned 21.....

1978. Been carrying for 32 years myself. Since 18 years old. Still trying to figure it out. Still looking for the perfect way. I always think to myself, just one more holster and I'll stop.

I think I need to start attending my "Pistols and Holsters Anonymous" meetings again. Does anybody else in here need a sponsor? Hello, my name is xxxx and I am a GunOholic.

Im 37, started carrying after I moved from Kommunist Kalifornia to Indiana in 2000. After I moved here and found out about concealed carry I applied. Best thing I ever did!! Thank God Indiana saved my butt!!

I got my LTCH right after the Schubert v. DeBard case in 1980. Got a letter from the NRA telling me how to file for it without providing a reason why I needed it. Just sent a letter stating the law to them.

Oh, I was 32.

I just started carrying in the Spring of 2009. Seemed like it took FOREVER to get my LTCH back!!

 

[melensdad]

Not sure, but I was probably 24 or 25 when I started carrying. So roughly 1985.
