What is YOUR Concealed Handgun Etiquette?????
Dan W:
I once shook the hand of the Lincoln Mayor while armed at a private home, and at the time my etiquette was split depending on the property owner.
Now with today's headlines at top of mind, I am pretty much a concealed is concealed guy, but that can mean my social life is pretty well dead, as I don't frequent gun free zones.
depserv:
My rule on that is if there will be alcohol consumed and I want to have some, even just one beer or glass of wine with dinner, I leave my gun at home. Otherwise I keep it on me. If they do not trust me with a gun then they are either a brainwashed liberal nitwit or they don't trust me period, and either way we probably don't have enough in common to be hanging out together. I just don't have much use for bigots, and liberal bigots are among the worst.
GreyGeek:
What they don't know certainly won't hurt them but could possible save their lives if the need arose. If they post or make a blanket statement about forbidding guns then I'm leaving without regret, and a suggestion that they put a sign on their lawn stating that they do not own guns nor have any in their house. Many anti-2A depend on the possibility that there may be a gun in their house, thus they are like, Canada depending on the US military shield, depending on our expression of the 2A.
barmandr:
I don't have anti-gun friends. But for the sake of your question, let's say I did. My way to proceed would be to inform the host, prior to the event, of my intent to carry. If the host has a problem with it then I'd forgo the event.
Greybeard:
I have informed friends that I carry, and asked if that is a problem when invited into their homes. So far, the answer has been, no problem, come on in.
