i was working for my dads company in a less than wonderful part of town and didnt want to risk anything as an 18yr old. then after getting out the military i have a mode that i cant shut off, i havent had a day in which a firearm was not on my person or within arms reach 24/7. Once you spend so much time living with the idea that EVERYONE is trying to kill you and you never do anything with out you weapon, it becomes 2nd nature
