What is the Second Amendment? The Second Amendment simply states “A well-regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”

The 2nd Amendment

Everyone has their own reasons and good reasons to carry a gun, too. No two are quite the same also.

Maybe you do it for self-defense, to protect those around you, or to defend your home. The most upheld though is to exercise your God-given Second Amendment right.

We have different reasons, but really, the ultimate argument for carrying a gun is the 2nd amendment! At the end of the day, what matters is what are you carrying a gun for.

And when you do, you're going to need this.

Why I Carry a Gun by Joshua Gillem

Our friend Joshua Gillem here at Gun Carrier has listed his personal reasons for carrying a gun every day. Read an excerpt below, and be sure to check out the full article here.

1. As I said above, people are nuts. And it seems to be getting worse. Especially when you watch the news and see all these riots taking place. What’s funny, though, is when you see the guys with the AR-15 slung around their shoulders guarding their business, nobody is attacking them. Wonder why? Maybe it’s because guns act as deterrents.

2. I’m convinced that the zombie apocalypse is already upon us. I mean, I literally look around and see the brain-dead all over the place, feeding off the innocent and trying to turn them into zombies, too. Many people believe that, at some point, it will escalate to an uncontrollable problem forcing us who aren’t yet zombies to defend ourselves against the horde. When/if that time comes, it is better to be ready for it.

Watch this insightful video from The Yankee Marshall on why people carry guns:

Carrying firearms definitely has its perks, but it carries a lot of responsibilities, too. That should not be a problem as long as you have the right mindset and discipline.

If you decide to carry a gun, be sure to put in the right amount of practice time as well as be mindful of the consequences it presents if misused. In the end, make sure you are justified by the law when questioned, why carry a gun?

    I carry because it would be easier to live with having to use deadly force than loosing a loved one because I didn’t carry.
