You are right. I was surprised to learn that a good friend of mine has a concealed carry permit. She is a senior but doesn't live in The Villages nor does she drink. It really surprised me that her husband doesn't have one.

It made sense after I thought about it. She dealt with a lot of unsavory issues before she retired and her husband didn't.

The Villages Straight Shooters conducts a Basic Pistol Course once a moth. The Basic Pistol course is 8 hours of training. This course goes far above the amount of information and training you wold receive at a gun show.

The next class is Oct 12th. The class on November 11th is a LADIES ONLY Class. Basic Pistol Safety - The Villages Straight Shooters Club should get you to the sign up page of The Straight Shooters.

As was pointed out, gerryann is responding to a Facebook post, and it was that poster who didn't mention men.

Most of the gentlemen I see in The Villages wear tee type shirts and khaki type pants. How would they conceal?

Things like that never make me want to jump on them. I have always felt equal and see no reason to challenge that premise.

Our friend (not in The Villages) wears long pants and a gun in an ankle holder. I think by the time he could get to it, it'd be all over. But I don't say that.

I always agree with people who have a gun.


I mean, I never have had to...but I would given the opportunity.

I doubt that I would be surprised, most of my women friends share personal information quite readily.
But asking a woman if she carries a concealed weapon - isn't that a bit like asking a man if he wears a toupee?

No ...more like if he he's had a vastectomy. But as Boomer says. I digress.


I think it is fun to digress. We have talked about this stuff so often before outlaw arrived.

Why believe anything posted on Facebook?

Bogie. A lot of it is TRUE. Just this morning I posted that I have the most wonderful grandchildren in the Universe.

That's a much better question. And we are both digressing, but that's half the fun of a Forum.
