"I carry a badge!" Get this official, law-abiding folding Permit Holder, especially if you are packing concealed heat. It's quick identification and looks impressive.

Some people just love pissing into the wind...

I would love to see someone with one of these get ticketed for some lame charge like impersonating an officer or something. I would have no sympathy at all.

Which is probably just about what they would get charged for.

I would get one that says security officer.

What's wrong with them? I have 2.

I would never carry a badge for CCW... not a good idea in my opinion.

 

 

"Some people respect the badge... everyone respects the gun."

There are alot of drawbacks (or just a lack of reason) behind those, but I see little bit of a scenario that it would help a bit. If you are carrying OWB with nothing but a light coat/parka/vest unzipped, wearing the badge just ahead of the pistol would be a nice way of dispelling panic if your coat swept back for any reason. Preventative maintenance per se. I've also heard one other person state that he wears it because if there was a shoot scenario and a cop is there before he can make his weapon safe, it will probably make the cop hesitate long enough to hopefully not shoot the "good" guy by accident.

 

Just 2 points for it, although I'de rather not have it anyways. Just shedding some light

I dont see how a badge would necessarily help dispel any fear the people had if they saw the gun. The only way I think that would work is if they thought the person was an officer. However, that could bring you a whole extra slew of issues. I just dont see any good coming from it.

I want one, but I want it to say "Fat Mall Cop", and it has to come with the corny F-Troop hat and size 54 pants with the stripe up the side.
