Why you probably don't need a "car holster"

Authorities said an East Los Angeles man arrived home Wednesday night to find a masked gunman in his driveway.

So he continued driving -- right over the gunman

Insert Magnum over Special joke here.

what if he is not right in front of you?

I wonder if the car was rated +P?

It would be even better if it was painted like the General Lee

I guess, in this case, the magnum wins over the shotgun!

No word, yet, on if the shotgun survived the accident.

And in other news, Californians re-elect a dead senator. Talk about voting along party lines!

Seriously, the other headlines on that news page:
"The Results: Californians Won't Embrace Change"
"California Voters Chose to Make Budget Crisis Worse"
"Deceased Democrat Defeats Republican for State Senate Seat"

Go California!

"I was like, 'I'm not going to help out that guy.'"

Classic.

But what if the masked gunman is on my lawn? No way I'm gonna wheel my own yard. That grass seed is expensive!

In a few months we'll see another headline. "Innocent Masked Gunman Sues Driver: Awarded 10 million for bodily injury"

The incident was being investigated as an assault with a deadly weapon, police said.

As in the Ski-mask-gunman is maybe guilty of 'assault'?


Or, the driver of the Car which ran the gunman over?


The latter would be Battery I think, so, must be the gunman...


Trouble with having a 'Car Holster', is once the Car is in the Holster, you can't open the Doors if you want to get something out or put something in.



Not for me...I prefer a non-Holstered Car.

great, now I have to clean my keyboard, that's what I get for taking sugar and cream, a sticky keyboard.

would that holster come in IWB or is it strictly OWB??
I wonder if Bianchi make one the right size for a camery?

Lmao, at all the comments. I love this forum!

Maybe not if the incident fits California's castle doctrine parameters.

I have always preferred the magnum over the shotgun and this now supports my belief of which one is better.

Dodge Magnum: because shooting ONCE is silly.

Guys, guys, guys! Don't you think we are assuming a little too much, here? I mean, can you honestly say you've never accidentally been in this position?

This one time I was out rabbit hunting on a wma. It was wintertime of course and very chilly. My face was really cold, so I put on my black ski mask that I often wear while hunting (and sometimes even when open carrying my pistol into the bank). Since I was lost, I wandered into a random neighborhood to ask for directions. If the homeowner had taken offense to my shotgun/ski mask/wandering up to his door and looking in the windows, that wouldn't have been my fault, now would it?

Luckily, the guy immediately opened the door. He commented on what I nice ski mask I was using and asked what kind of shotgun I was using. He even offered to let me come inside to warm up, use the bathroom, and case the joint. Then he gave me directions and sent me on my way. He happened to be a masked hunter himself....

Innocent until proven guilty, right?... Right?... *Crickets*

Unless you are a cop or a soldier, escape for goodness sake, that's what. Escape in your boosted XT!

Don't bring a shotgun to a SUV fight

Clutch

Yes, but the Dodge Magnum is inferior (ballistically speaking) to a Ford F250.

lmao the imagined picture painted in my head compounded the joke even further!

 

[wyocarp]

I don't understand why the driver didn't back up to see if the gunman was dead/okay. It's not like he couldn't have put the the car in drive and driven over him again if he needed to.

Don't bring a shotgun to a SUV fight.

If you do, you have to at least fire the shotgun. So much for the thinking that just racking a shotgun will scare someone off.

Thanks, all, but that'll do...
