Default Just realized how cheap the plastic on our cars are

Doing some much needed cleaning of the interior, I noticed that the plastic part of the center console next to the passenger seat was all scuffed and scratched. I realized that months of unholstering and sticking my gun between the console and seat has scratched it up.

Grrrr.

Are you in law enforcement of just one of those Texans who packs a gun?
I was in Baytown just a few days ago and saw a couple of civilians with a gun tucked in the back of their jeans.
I was like, what the hell is that all about?
The client that I was with says it is sometimes normal.

You can carry concealed weapons so long as you have the permit for it in Texas... We be screwed up people sometimes.

Just a responsible person who understands that cops aren't always going to be where I need them to be. But it is bad form to have the gun showing.

I wish it was legal in NC to have a concealed weapon, but it has to be visible at all
time I think. My 4D cell Maglite and my Louisville slugger do there best to try to protect me for the time being.

It is. Check w/ your local Sheriff's office. It might be that it is up to the Sheriff as to whether or not he issues, but IT IS LEGAL IN NC.

Hmm, I went to high school in Sugar Land Texas and if you are carrying a gun around you must have a low ego. Sugar Land is nothing but a yuppy suburb of Houston. I went to Clements High School, once again no need for a gun. I worked at the Cinnamonster in First Colony Mall and once again no need for a gun. So uh What's up
