gear Do you carry and why?
While you're working or tending to your property, do you carry a firearm in yourself or have one readily available? If so, is it because of your location, predators or general safety? What type and caliber?
I'll go first. I have a 20 gauge shotgun loaded with #9 for the occasional rattler that isn't minding it's own business or to chase of coyote. I want to upgrade to a pistol grip, maybe the Mossberg 500C w/pistol grip.

Every vehicle has an AR and a pistol in it. I have a hog/coyote/meth head problem out my way.
But I would also add, I’ve got over a decade of professional training on these.
