I just have been in a few situations recently where I didn't neccesarily need a weapon but would probably been a little less concerned if I had one. They have some sketchy *** gas stations in BR, Lafayette, and New Orleans!

I may sound like a broken record, but "getting comfortable" with a firearm takes a lot more than 50 rounds. Before strapping a gun on your side after a 1 day class and calling yourself safe is more likely to get you hurt in a life or death situation. You should put at least several hundred rounds through it, preferably with a knowledgable instructor, before considering carrying a weapon everyday. And remember that shooting is a perishable skill. If it's not used often enough, you will lose it....... Which is probably why I couldn't hit the ducks worth a frick this season! Lol.
