What good is a law going to do?
Color me either curious or confused.

I made a 10k commission with an off the hand comment about CHL (just passing comment when I thought the sale was going no where). Turns out he was a CHL. We talked for 2 hours about guns and how I was planning on carrying. I got the sale after that.TexasRedneck wrote:Whew - there for a while I was afraid I was gonna be in the minority....
I'm not bashful about my love of firearms, and best of all is that my employer is not only cool with it, I'm kinda the company "go-to" guy when someone's looking to buy a gun - and of our 40+ employees, 80% are either "gun nuts", or married to 'em! I've actually helped the owner find several guns he wanted, and every time I walk in the office (I'm outside sales, so only make it to our main office about every 2-3 months) he loves to try to figure out where I've got mine stashed, and what I'm carrying. So far, he's never been able to figure out where I'm carrying it (yes, I switch around because I carry different ones depending on what I'm wearing and where I'm going to be), so it's a great "double-check" on how effective my CC efforts are.
Bottom line - I'm not bashful about being a "gun nut". Frankly, if someone is going to not do business with me because I choose to own a gun I don't really need them as a customer. Funny part is, a LOT of 'em either own 'em, or want to - and I've taken any number of them to the range to introduce them to the sport AND the realities of owning/carrying 'em. And yeah - I display my "NRA Life" decal on both my truck and the wifes' car. Some folks worry that it makes 'em a target - I want the bad guy to go find someone LESS likely to be able to put up a fight.
Just can't figger out why folks call me "Redneck".....
