Notice she has 1 1/2 million views. Hard to believe they are all interested in gun holsters
May be a fetish for chicks with guns.

i need to talk with you please about my switchblade. i just thought it needed to be oiled (from cracking skids taped), but apparently i have an issue -
carrying this in the interim.
All my holsters are leather Galco holsters minus one Safariland I have for my Beretta that I use when hiking/in the woods for whatever reason. My favorite is my Galco Miami-style shoulder rig for my 1911, ran at about $200 and just sits in a closet most of the time except for sometimes in winter when I can get away with concealing a full size 1911 under a thick leather jacket but the holster looks really sharp. My EDC holster is a cheap $50 Galco IWB holster for my Springfield subcompact.
If you are used to carrying a switchblade, a knife like this is a good choice. I carry one much of the time

It opens lightning fast and is quite impressive. Although I like karambits I like the feel of this knife.
Here is mine by the way. Notice the skateboard tape I have added. It is in my thumb position and there is some on the other side. If something was to get on the knife that made it slippery, this will prevent you from losing control of the knife.

thank you! check your PMs please.
so i carry a switchblade in my pool case (now it's pool-related
).what are the laws now? it's illegal to possess them. it's illegal to sell/buy them. it's illegal to ship them. but it's NOT illegal to ship them if from dealer-to-dealer. right?
BUT
what if i got caught with a stilletto/switchblade, and WHEN i got caught, the blade was OUT? then, it's not "concealed"....
AND
ooohh! and IF i had a Concealed Permit - does it cover these? (where is Sonny Burnett to respond?)

i beleive it's called "spring assisted"
Well yes and no. If you push say a button and it opens that can be viewed differently then a spring assisted that you have to manually start the blade opening with like a lever. Like gun laws knife laws can be different in different states, you have to check your local laws.
Switch blades have been redefined a few years ago. In most cases for the knife to be illegal the blade has to leave the handle and they refer to this as a "Ballistic knife".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistic_knife
In my state a legal knife is covered by my carry permit. As long as it is concealed I can carry a sword if I want.
It seems like a grey law that they can enforce on a case by case basis. If you go to a fishing pier you will find guys with good size knives on their hips and no one will take a second look. Walk around a shopping mall with a hunting knife on you belt in plain view and I have a feeling you will be stopped.
In reading the law it would seem that selling any spring assisted knife across state lines is illegal.
The Kershaw Tremer I show in my other post based on the law was bought illegally. I bought it on ebay for like $25.00. I lot of these laws are goofy and inconsistent. Even if you study them you don't know if you are breaking the laws or not they can be so contradictory.
I have a book just on gun laws in my state. It is written by a lawyer who specializes in gun law.
Even if you think you are within your rights he always suggests not to push it. All they will do is come up with another charge, cops don't like to lose.
He sights laws that he feels are probably unconstitutional but a lot of the gun laws have no precedent and have never been challenged. He can't honestly say what will happen. You may get yourself out of it but no without a huge legal bill to go along with it. No one wants to me a martyr.

As someone with a concealed handgun permit, they do not cover knives unless otherwise-stated. May be different state-to-state, you would just need to browse your laws concerning knives and CC.
Laws regarding firearms and knives are a state by state issue. In FL, anything goes with our CCW (concealed carry weapons) permit. BTW, push button/switch blade is not correct. Those are referred to as automatic. Some autos come OTF, out the front. The ones with the lever are flippers and open the blade with a move of the "flipper" piece that sticks out. Others, have a roller action the or DA, direct assist. Backward states like Ny have out outlawed these and more importantly, they outlawed one handed knives. One handed knives are knives that can open with one hand. Example Emerson, a premier maker has a feature called the wave. It is a small hook like feature that you can catch intentionally on your pocket to draw the knife open as you pull it out. Emerson will not ship to certain states, like NY.
Many states have reciprocal agreements with respect to CCW. It is best to check what the laws are if you intend to carry a weapon interstate. In Florida, even women carry knives and guns. The the greater Jacksonville area the percent of people carrying is staggering.

ours did, doesn't now
The original La. concealed carry law let you tote anything. The framers of the law realized that wasn't their intention and tightened up the wording once they realized they had legalized carrying knives, swords, clubs, anything you chose as long as it was concealed. I never saw what difference it made but last I knew you can only carry a gun concealed. I don't know if they specify how many though.

OMG. if you want a laugh - rent it @ RedBox. apparently a 9mm can now hold 25 rounds in 1 clip. the 120lb female cop shoots her AR15 from under her armpit w/ no strap. etc etc what a low-budget film!

You say "concealed handgun permit". In many cases they are weapon permits and cover a variety of types of weapons not just guns. Most statutes are on line and can be easily researched. What state are you in?

I got my new holster a few days ago and have been carrying it everyday all day. It is quite amazing. You hardly know you are wearing it. I think the secret is the weight is supported by your body and not just your pants waistband.
I were shorts most of the time with no belt. I would have to keep pulling up my pants because of the weight of the gun. Not with this holster It stays put.
By the way here is also a picture of my recent purchase. I actually got it at a garage sale. It is pristine and in the original box. I lucked out, I was looking at a holster she had and I commented I would like the gun that came with it just joking.
She whispers she has a gun for sale but was afraid to put it out. I take a look and ask what she wants. She says make an offer and I say $200. deal made and I write up a quick bill of sale. It is a S&W 659 I have been shooting it and like it a lot. Little big for my hands but fun to shoot.
By the way, If you have ever seen the movie Reservoir Dogs it is what Mr Pink, Mr White and several are carrying. It is standard 14 shot. I got two extra clips with it for a total of three.

West Virginia, here it's explicitly stated 'handgun.' Which is why as a 'car gun' beyond a regular carry side-arm, I have to keep an AK47 'pistol' instead of my AR in the car if I want to keep it loaded, not in the trunk, etc. Which has always eluded me how a state so full of woodlands, hunting, etc. can have such restricting views on weaponry.
Ah well, I'll be making the move to South Carolina in a few more years--won't have to put up with it too terribly much longer. haha
Chris,
That's funny that you mentioned Cuban Joe, the only guy I ever saw in a poolroom with a gun. I like this story, you might too.
It's about 1969. I own a Gina I paid about $130 for, and I carry it in a kinda oversized oblong Adams tube style case that it clangs around in, I'm 16 years old.
I'm living in Sacramento and Billy Johnson (aka Wade Crane) and Cuban Joe are traveling through town, beating everybody outta their dough. They are beating my local room owners and pals like a couple of red-headed step children in a classic fashion...more weight...I'll play ya one pocket off handed (when in fact he had been playing off handed the whole time and was switching to his usual right handed play, etc).
Anyway, Cuban Joe calls me over and says "hey kid, lemme see your case". I show him my case and he inspects it at length and says, "you wanna trade it for this Gina case?". I look at the Gina case and it's perfect, kid glove leather, even says "Wade Crane" on it. I can't figure out why he wants to trade but I snap up his offer.
Well, out comes the cue, I take my cue out of the Adams case and slide it into the Gina case & Joe slides his cue in my big clunky oblong case. He then takes a snub nose pistol out of his waistband, stuffs it up in the cap of the Adams case, shoves a small towel in after it, wedging it into the cap, snaps it over the case and says "perfect, thanks kid"
My brother still has the cue and the case is at Ernie's shop, it's tattered and the name is worn off, all from living in my trunk for 30 years before I knew better. I bought a piece of kid leather and gave it to Ernie with the case to re-cover. He has recovered one Gina case in the last 25 years and swears he won't, but once the 50th anniversary cues are done I'm betting I'll convince him.
Joe
