I'd like to see you tell that to my 2 year old.

Seriously though, we know most of the people in our neighborhood (we don't live in Crackville, USA either). My neighbor and I both carry daily and will both be with our kids as a group when we get started.

My wife and In-Laws will be manning the front foor and my wife will have the .45 at the house.

hmm, a question popped into my head on this one, If I escorted the kids in costume, "Great granpa's WWI uniform, yeah it's still in good shape" would the flap holster be considered concealed? or would I have to use a dummy gun in it, while wearing a concealed tuckable? If I dress up, I'm planning on the second just to be cautious. but thoughts anyone?

I'll carry an extra magazine for my XD(M), that way I'll have 49 rounds available for the zombies...

Of course I will carry. But those silver FMJs were frightfully expensive!

I have to work part of that evening, and while I am at work I carry.
And when I get home, when I answer the door I carry OWB with a t-**** verily covering.

I will be armed everywhere I go everyday as always... unless prohibited by law!

yeah, may have to load up my BUG with some winchester silvertips

in years past when not working, I'd dress up in my camo gear head to toe, face paint and all and spring up out of the shrubs/grass by the front door scaring the living crap outta folks, they'd look right at me and not know I was there 6 feet away

My kids are grown and my grandson isn't old enough yet, but I always carried in the past, and plan to in the future.

I just take my kids to a Trunk or Treat at our church. Members line their cars up in the parting lot trunk out, put out a few decorations, and pass out wrapped candy only. The trick or treating gets done in about 30 minutes where we are only going to families we know in a well lit area. No walking up to unknown strangers or houses and asking for candy.

Trunk or Treat is definitely the way to go, and what my kid will do one day!
