Step one, get a Holster.

Only Gangsta’s (and The Outlaw Josie Wales) stuff Guns in their Waistbands.

Now, before anyone starts ripping Hi Point, the story proves that when you pull the trigger on a Hi Point, it goes Bang.

I have one of those 9MM Hi Points and I’ve yet to have a misfire or a stovepipe. Of course, I keep it clean. LOL

He didn’t need a license to “possess” it in Indiana

But, he did need a “License to Carry” it around off of his own property

There was a guy at the range last weekend practicing draws from an inside the waistband Groin/belly holster. I cringed watching him. Looked like an accident waiting to happen.

What is the deal with the license? Are they saying he had no concealed permit, or that he requires a licensed actually have a gun. Where does this fit within the Second Amendment?

Apparently in Indiana you need a license to posses a gun. Who knew?

Hi Point 9, definitely an assault weapon.

So without a ‘license’ it’s just an undocumented personal safety device.

Wait.....I’m supposed to have a license?

I checked that, and Indiana requires a license for both concealed and open carry, but not for ownership. The headline could have been better worded.

So if he had a license it wouldn’t have been an accident? Guess he watched too many movies/TV shows on gun safety.
