    CCW Badges?? Yay or Nay

    I was at a gun show lastweekend and I seen some cool looking CCW badges. One was a 5 point star with a circle. Us marshal style but damn the price was crazy like $105 for a wallet and badge but is it worth it?

    Flashing a badge could cause some serious problems if taken the wrong way.

    I have a badge, a real badge, and I only show it if it's needed.

    We dont' need no stinking badges (pause for Sonytec to insert video)

    Bad idea for me. I adhere to out of site out of mind. If you find out I have a conceal carry, it is probably because you threatened my life and I am getting ready to show you what a muzzle flash looks like

    Side note: I think it might cause more trouble as some might mistake it/ you for impersonating a LEO, which is a big NO NO

    I agree! A badge should indicate some type of authority. Even retired LE badges have retired on the badge. Any other use is dangerous and may cause confusion.

    I think they should tatoo everyone on their forhead, because why wouldnt you want everyone to know you have a gun on you?

    Good advice.
    You know what they say about common sense? It aint that common any more.

    Bad idea. Maybe a lapel pin of some type. But the less people can tell I have my gun the better off everyone is.

    I would not want anything that someone could tell what I have.

    Plus the bad guys could tell who was not armed, and they would become a target for crime.
