A lot quicker than getting out your cell phone, calling 911 and waiting for the police to arrive.

I find all these posts comical as though I don't like guns - everyone in my family has them and if any crap goes down - I'll be darn glad they do. Those who oppose the right to bear arms are going to be mighty glad someone has them if things go south.

OK. The bad guy sees two guys.

One guy is wearing glasses, white tennis shoes with black socks, green shorts and a wife beater t shirt. He just got out of a Prius with an Obama sticker on one side and a rainbow on the other. He is helping a similar-looking dude get out of the car, which is parked in front of a fire hydrant.

And then there is another guy wearing a huge gun strapped to his back.

So, who is he gonna rob?


See, I'm the second guy. And the "situation" never arose. I prevented it, and never hurt a soul.

So unless I come up with a couple of hundred million pics you're just going to claim nobody ever does it?

With my fists? I could get my fists in action a hell of a lot faster than you could get that gun strapped to your back in action

13 GUNS STRAPPED TO THE BACK SO DON'T TRY AND TELL ME NOBODY DOES IT
The story changes again, every single one of your posts is at a, 4 of your links are "not found."

So, it appears you have nothing....

Do you really think those guys are wearing it like that for personnel protecting? And BTW your last link he is also wearing a pistol...

Almost every link you provided was at some sort of protest.....is that where you are going to get brought down by a criminal? Hahahahahah

Your failure is noted....just like I said before, you CANNOT show us where someone is wearing this gun on their back for personnel protection use....just look at YOUR DAMN LINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are presenting a situation where the bad guy as you put it already has his gun drawn, obviously that puts a different slant on the situation. Is that your premise? If I felt I was about to be killed or raped I probably would take my chances.
A gun where it's easy to draw and shoot that I can understand
