Hey, I've had my concealed carry license since Jan. I always keep a 9mm in the car accessibleto me and the wife. Now I put a 642 .38special under my rear seat,when I ride. I have an ankle holster, but I'm afraid it will show when I stop. I wanted it on me, but the thought of going down with a firearm on me,kinda sucks. Anybody else waste their time packing when they ride, if so why ,besides our cop buddies?
Anybody packing?

Damn i can not own a gun ever. I would do bad things. Instead of taking a mirror i would take a life(no matter how much that retard who will probably end up killing someone else through gross negligence deserves it) so no gun for me thanxs.

Pack it at about 4 o'clock. Right behind the side of your hip. IWB style holster and under the shirt.
not trying to stir the pot or anything, but whats the point with it being in there. In a rapidly developing situation do you really think you are going to have the time to stop the bike, turn it off, undo the rear seat and then address the problem? I'd almost say you might as well not even carry it if its gonna be in there. It's positioning makes it next to useless...omegga1 said:

Also, other than damaging your pistol, I dont see any problem (as far as safety) with going down. Personally, I wouldnt keep it chambered though.omegga1 said:

No... but I did drive through PA with a no-dachi slung over my shoulder one day (The fiancee bought it for my birthday gift, and I didn't know it, or I'd have brought the car when I went out to visit her at college)

Personally, I think the size of gun you carry should be directly proportionate to the displacement of the bike you ride.
The basic break down would look something like this......
Dirt Bikes, enduros and Ninja 250s. ----- Air Soft
EX 500s, GS 500s etc.... -------------- .22 caliber
CBR 600s, ZX600 GSXR 750 etc..... ---- 9mm
CBR 1000RR, GSXR 1000 etc..... ------- .40 caliber
Busa, ZX-14, etc.... -- --------------- .45 caliber
Y2K Bike ----------------------------- .50 caliber

I have a S&W 9MM that I plan on keeping in the tank bag once I get the concealed carry permit. It's just a matter of getting over to the county sheriff's office to fill out the forms. A tank bag is probably the best place, I wouldn't want to go down with something that heavy and bulky sticking out of my hip/back/whatever.

·Not to flame, but if your going to carry, it has to be ready at any time. Wasting time chambering a round could be the differance between going home and not.BaileyMoto said:
I carry a Glock 23 either IWB or on a horizontal shoulder rig. I also have a P3AT i'm breaking in for my normal riding gun. I carry that on a neck holster that hangs inside my jacket. When I take my jacket off, I can slip it under my shirt.
