Re: Collapsable Baton?

I think the anti-Bat Masterson laws went away with the ADA Americans with Disabilities Act.
TSA is supposed to X-ray canes, except White Collapsible canes is what I read somewhere.

Re: Collapsable Baton?

Back in the 1970s I got several 6-cell D-cell metal flashlights, one for the car, a few for the house, one for walking on a street with loose dogs. In the 2000s I added a cane which I use sometimes. Both have come in handy on more than one occasion for their multiple uses. I also carry my almost 3-foot long flexible weapon, the weighted keychain. I mean I did consider the collapsible baton many years ago, decided against it, didn't want a trip to the graybar motel when other alternatives were available. Other than a pistol, I don't see carrying weapons which were obviously designed to have only one purpose, a weapon, except maybe sprays or stungun types when I benefit from "multi-use" things more.. but that's just me.

Now that's for "carrying" I'm not saying I don't have nunchucks etc. "in the house" etc, but that's not what I'd be grabbing first anyway ... but if someone is at work in a bar they own/property under their control I can see where it might be a useful supplemental tool on some occasions.
