Guess I have to reply to This post, I don't necessarily Carry a weapon, but because of the area i live in I always have My screw driver on me weather I'm using it at the time or not. I live in a Questionable part of My town. But I'm 6' 4" and Weight 240 pounds But once in awhile i have to Let some one Know that I won't be messed with!!!!!! I will be easier now that I have a hearing aid And wont be surprised By some one coming out of the Bushes when I'm walking near them!!! Yes It has Happend Several times to me Especially near the Columbia river spots I go to!!!!! I actually Live in One of the worst parts of my town, and also manage the Apt complex I live in. 90% of the Tweakers and Homeless bums will cross the street before approaching The complex I live In!!!!! Because they Know that all the resident here Wont put Up With there @#$#

After this week end I will start carring!!! updated response 5 11 2010

If iam not on the beach which here is ok at least during the day and iam in the deep woods you bet i carry a weapon you just never know what your going to run into although i have seen sharks close in to the beaches sometimes the King !! great whites do show up here since we are 121 miles out on the tip east end and no way would i even stay in the water long enough to fight one of those off .

I expect most beach hunters carry an anti-land-shark weapon, our long-handled scoops. Just flip it end for end and jam the handle into the softest available part of the land shark.

Land hunting where I usually go I carry a Starfire 9 mm. and a bayonet. Bayonet is used for a coin probe and can't cut warm butter, but it looks nasty. In the water which I mainly do now I have my divers knife and my scoop. The knife has a flat point mainly like a large screw driver but has a fish line cutter hook and serrated blade for cutting line.

I use to carry a large knife at night but with the recent evens in my area I've started packing my shoulder mounted 44 desert eagle. I do have my weapons permit to carry. I like to carrying it because it's stainless steel and it won't rust like a standard blued gun before I can clean it. It's heavy though and I wouldn't dare go in the water with it. I'm thinking of getting a laser site added for the simple fact it will surely scare the living h3ll out of anyone who messes me. That little red dot on a person's chest really has a psychological effect on them.

A 32 automatic and digging tool works for me. The 32 fits nicely into one of the pockets on my muiltipocketed finds vest that I got from Walmart.

I ususally go with a friend treasure hunting, but if I had to I guess I will take the small one with me.....

(opps my foot is in the picture....sorry)

I usually carry a four inch Buck knife. It's mostly because of my boating experience, and because it's good for cutting line.

 

[sniffer]

when I'm in unknown areas, I carry a S & W 9mm, police issue

 

[kenley]

I usually just take my little nephew with me. He's kinda skinny, but he watches my back and helps dig.

 

[WishfulThinker]

Lorcin 380 cal, AMT Backup 380 cal (Police use it a lot), or best Tek Protek 25 cal. small lightweght in $100 to $150 range couple extra clips ... in build it yourself snap over nylon holster on belt next to police style pepper gas spray/spray bottle WD-40/cleaning brush/digging screwdriver combo ... not so obvious

I find that acting like Mel Gibson as the psyco-cop in Lethal Wepon and asking them if they REALLY want to mess with you, while chewing on your gun barrel works pretty well. They do move back a bit!
