This one I said myself........

I was off duty and wearing blue jeans, sneakers, tee shirt and a leather jacket (but still looks as a cop)......talking with a friend moonlighting in his real cop uniform.

A guys walks by and says sarcastically,"Look at all the badges and guns".

My response: "I don't have a badge".
-----------------------------------
This one I overheard from an arrest of an extraordinary mouthy criminal:

Criminal to his wife: "When I make bail, I'm gonna cap your ass!"

Cop: "When you make bail, you're going to have a scorching case of dented hemmhoroids just before a terminal case of lead poisoning from my Glock.
----------------------------------
Jail C.O.: "No guns allowed"

Visitor: "Does that include the criminals?"
 
"There ain't many problems a man can't fix / with seven hundred dollars and a thirty-ought six" - Col. Jeff Cooper's daughter, whose name I don't remember.
 
Found a while back on a preparedness site (I'll reference it if I can find it again!)

"Be polite, be professional, but always have a plan to kill anyone you consider a threat!" ;)
 
"You're just a head over a front sight post to me." - Me, to a fraternity boy who thought he'd "intimidate" me by staring me down in the meal line in the dining hall.
 
On the range in a Jim Cirillo class at the Firearms Academy of Seattle.

Jim Cirillo (to several students still downrange hanging targets): Stay low when the shooting starts.
 
Me to the burglar who was squinting (and using one hand to shield his eyes) into my flashlight beam when I caught him exiting my garage at 4:00 AM.

"What you need to understand is that I'm looking at you across the top of a .45 automatic, and I'm not putting up with any B#ll Sh@t!" delivered in my best DI command voice. (I was a DI in the Marines, circa 74-76.)

He and his partner "assumed the position" as directed until the deputies arrived just a few moments later.
 
Scenario, back in the days when the army use to pay cash, the Regimental Sergeant Major walks out of the Australian Army Orderly Room to see the unit pay chest sitting on the ground, there's a soldier standing about ten feet away from the chest, smoking a cigarette. The RSM, believing the pay chest to be unguarded, approaches it and attempts to pick it up.

Digger; Don't touch the f****** pay chest sir.
RSM: Do you kno who I am digger?
Digger: Yes sir, your the RSM
The RSM again bends down to pick up the pay chest
Digger; I said dont touch the f****** pay chest sir.
The RSM stands up looking particularly nasty and places his hands on his hips, before he can start roaring the digger speaks up again
Digger; Do you know who I am sir, I'm the pay guard (moving his jacket to reveal a Browning butt forward on the left hip), that chest's got my mate's pays in it and if you attempt to touch it again, I will shoot you.
RSM:(Starting to smile) carry on digger.

Yes, the young digger was me.
 
"a gun is your best friend, but like all best friends, you need to look after it like it looks after you"

-Eb Clark, my grandfather, said when teaching me how to clean guns.
 
Two young punks approached me as I exited my armored truck -

"Stay away from the vehicle!" I said in my best command voice.

"Didn't mean to threaten you," one kid says laughing.

"Kid," I said, placing my hand on the grip of my S&W 9mm, "you aren't a threat to me - just a target."

I thought I heard that, but I was doing something else and was sure I just heard it wrong.

We had our annual August Hawaiian shirt shoot last weekend my SASS club. One of the very colorful, if not satorial, shooters was heard saying, "Well, I'll never be embarassed about dressing like a cowboy again..."

how about

"don't shoot till you see the whites of their eyes"

Present day english to english translation:
"don't shoot till you see the blue of their helmets"

I know that i just stole that from some one here, but I like it anyway.


Another good one was me the first time that I was "made" at work.
Co-worker: "Hey what's that in your pants?"
Me: "My d!ck, you want to see it?".... never had a problem again.

working as an armed guard in frisco

allowed me many quips...

When asked "when was I allowed to shoot some one"? I would reply ..."oh, you know, if I have a hangover or in a bad mood"
When asked "is that gun loaded?" I replied.."of course it is, you can't shoot anyone with an unloaded gun"

"why don't you put your gun away & fight me like a man"
me -"I'd rather shoot you from a distance so I don't get your smell on me"
 
This one actually happened to me years ago when I first bought a .45ACP. Previously, I shot only a pair of S&W L-frames and a Browning Buckmark .22LR. When I showed up with a 6" 586, my Buckmark, and the .45ACP, one of the old timers said:

"A .38 revolver, a .22 auto, and a .45 auto. That's the Holy Trinity right there."

I still laugh when I think of that :D

"Don't bother totin' it if you ain't willin' to pull it. Don't pull it unless you're willin' to draw down on somebody. Don't draw down on somebody unless you're willing to shoot 'em, and don't shoot nobody unless you're wantin' to kill 'em. Don't kill a man unless you're willing to pay the price." - My Grandpa

That was my Grandpa's way of explaining that if you're going to carry a gun, you'd better be willing to pay the price if you ever have to use it. If you're not, don't bother carrying it at all.
