This is an old saying, but true as far as I'm concerned.
"I would rather have a gun on me and not need it, than need it and not have it"

That may sound paranoid to some, but believe me, it's for self protection, which is my right, and possibly the protection of others.
I'll admit, not once in my 62yrs on this earth have I ever come close to needing one, and hope I never do, but I still adhere to the saying above.
