Haven’t been on the board much the last 4 or 5 years or so. Came on today, discovered this thread. Nice. Dug up a few pics from the last year or two, got my carry permit in CT a couple years ago.
My pistols, top to bottom: Bersa Thunder Ultra Compact .45, Charter Arms Bulldog .44 special, Ruger LCR .327 Federal mag. Not the fanciest, but they work. I really like the trigger on the Ruger, but I bought that for the wife, so I rarely carry it.

I own several other long guns, most recent purchase was a Ruger Mini 30. Around 6 years ago I bought a Marlin 1895 SBL guide gun, .45/70.

Completely forgot about the don’t mention gun line.. srs..
While leaving work at about 6:15 pm... I legit got pulled over again for not turning on my lights. Officer didn’t pull me out and was super cool. Didn’t give me a warning nor ticket either. He said wow man we get happy when we meet and pull people with concealed carry permit holders then a few seconds later he goes as LE we are big 2a supporters..
Lmao he was legit trying to just express his support. It was nice. Bad thing is my employees were in the car with me and now they know I carry. I’d rather them never knowing until a situation ever came down to me needing it. I don’t trust them knowing and think it can lead to an ambush of some sort if they knew.
Edit: I’ve been off all day and haven’t been pulled over in years. Feels like sh*t tbh.

any of you guys have a recommendation for a small but durable cable lock? (as much as locks can be)
something small like you'd use for luggage, but it would be for my snowboard when i leave it on the racks at the resorts when i go grab a beer. the offerings from many of the snowboard companies are pretty thin and i would bet could be beat with a simple multitool.
so i figured we're a bunch of gear whores here and might no of a good solution. any suggestions?

We're a very large company. It isn't feasible to allow every temp, visitor, whatever to carry a gun into the building.

Usually on the mountain most people dont have bolt cutters and if they did it would look odd that someone is at the rack with them.
As mentioned before, the offerings from these companies are super thin cables, which could be cut with simple multi tool, which people do have with them on the mountain.
I guess i'm looking for a cable thicker like a bike lock, but small in length so it can be compact. just curious if anyone knew of anything

I hope you don't think people only carry guns to protect against the extraordinarily rare event that is a mass shooting.

If someone wants to take your sh!t, carrying the size of bolt cutters it would take would draw much more attention than nothing at all. Especially around ski racks, motorcycles or bikes where people are more attentive to stuff like that. It's not high security where you can be completely away for a long time but it's good if you'll be nearby with like minded folks around and just want to avoid the opportunistic snatchers.
