I live in a good, semi-rural area but have gotten into the habit of keeping a pistol in my coat pocket while working outside on the property.
My thinking was reaffirmed yesterday when a neighbor called me and said they'd just challenged a guy walking up their private road. Dirty clothing, gloves, screwdriver in hand, headlamp on head, and a bad attitude. A pic of the guy is attached (I blocked out his face). I told her to call 911. She did, and the response from the County police department was there was no crime committed so they were not sending an Officer.
I grabbed a shotgun and walked my property with two dogs. No sign of him but I alerted my other neighbors...
So as I head into the Summer I thinking about options on a hot Summer day to keep a pistol with me. Some days I can end up quite dusty after mowing.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
