Being new to the whole arena of gold prospecting, I have been wondering about CP members’ past need for, or the general advocacy of personal protection from predators, both four and two legged kinds, when one is afield in some remote site. A quick key word search did not show up much mention of the subject – perhaps it is an inappropriate discussion topic?
The basic premise here is that the CP member will be a current concealed-carry-permit holder in good legal standing who, by training or experience, is knowledgeable/comfortable in the handling and use of firearms. Due to the recent changes in various state laws, CHL reciprocity agreements among the southern states appear to extend into Colorado (except for NM?). With that, does one have real reason to "pack heat" along with the basic equipment, or should it be left in the vehicle, at home or motel, or whatever? |
