^^^ THIS ^^^Operative word is concealed.......
Thank you all for replying. An interesting collection of beliefs, even for a forum as uniform as this.
Gun owners are not a monolithic block.
The absolutism expressed is less appealing, but the anonymous nature of the internet brings that out.
That is where mine stays except in bed or bate.
Given common usage on both web fora and internet chats, it is most pleasing to see proper use of two often mis-used words, and that you're going to refine the sign to please your offspring.You're welcome to carry here, concealed or otherwise but ... please leave your smartphone in the basket.
I can't really tell what your doing here..... your pro gun but only if someone says it's ok. Rather Fuddish of you, I have carried a pistol since I was 13 and frankly never gave anythought to carrying in a residence not my own. As long as I am not brandishing said weapon how in the world would you know.
When my dad died in 2018 my best range buddy in the world met me in the parking lot and asked if I had a gun to which I opened my tux jacket to reveal a kimber 1911 gov and extra mags on a range instructer style belt. The awkward part was he opened his jacket and revealed the same set up, we should have corroded our attire lol.
My right does not end where your door begins, we can be acquaintances and I won't visit you.
This question reminds me of a group of Mormons I worked with in 2018 and they were discussing the insanity of people carrying guns in their tabernacle and how it upset them so......... some people will never accept the real world facts bad things i.e. VIOLENT MURDER can and will come to houses of worship, personal homes, schools, restaurants, truck stops, gas stations, super centers, malls, sport events, etc.
A home owner can not protect you, only you can and the novel concept of surrendering a weapon to your host is a delusional submission.
It is really a sad state of affairs when someone is living in such a constant state of fear that even when going to a friends home for dinner or to play cards they must be armed.
When they break out the beers and whiskey do you put your guns away?
I guess its a mentality thing. I never looked at carrying a gun being something fear driven. Its just a tool that I carry, and no different than a multi tool or pocket knife, etc.It is really a sad state of affairs when someone is living in such a constant state of fear that even when going to a friends home for dinner or to play cards they must be armed.

I suspect it will become an issue if you find yourself in front of a judge after using your firearm.Unless you're planning on getting drunk and out of hand, a drink or beer or two isnt going to magically turn you into trouble or a problem anymore that it would if you weren't carrying.
My underlying principle for those carrying arms into my house is: Those who I invite or allow into my house are those I already trust to do so.

I don’t – because I’m carrying concealed; the property owner won’t know.I also avoid places that don't allow cc.
If you went to your friends home for supper and brought an uninvited child you would ask it it were ok. It is common politeness.If nobody's "friend's home" had ever been subject to any sort of violent crime, that would be a valid point. Otherwise, it's just another anti-gun slogan.

I didn't read the whole thread, but this might be the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Why would you give your gun to the homeowner to hold? Or leave it in the car to be stolen? Just carry it concealed on your person, as you would anywhere else.Thoughts on concealed carry into a friend's house.
Situation: Wife and I were having a dinner for step daughter, son in law, my son, and baby. I find out my son-in-law is carrying, under his shirt. I didn't say anything, but when I go to a friend's house, I always leave my gun in the car. If leaving in the car isn't safe, I give it to the homeowner I'm visiting, to hold for me.
What are the thoughts on this?

P.S. I'm in Massachusetts, a very gun un-friendly state (if that matters).
