Fast Forward Posted August 28, 2014 Share The idea of carrying a firearm whilst cycling may be somewhat of a controversial topic, but I would like to know your thoughts on this matter. Having gone through the cycling safety forum I again realised how dangerous it is to actually cycle in the good old RSA. The obvious question is how practical it is given the weight and dimensions of a firearm. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letum911 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Would you want to have it concealed or visible? Im not sure what the laws are regarding firearms in public but I reckon having it strapped to your leg is pretty practical, close to reach and comes with when you get thrown off the bike. My bigger problem with carrying a gun while cycling (I am a gun nut so saying this is against my beliefs), is that you'll be upping the level of violence of the crime over time. They'll shoot you off the bike instead of bumping/tackling you. ryanbritchford, Uhan, Brandon P and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I FLY Posted August 28, 2014 Share THIS IS A S+W 9MM 6 SHOT SLIGHTLY BIGGER THAN A IPHONE AND ITS VERY LIGHT One of my collegues belongs to a few gun associations and has more guns than I have bikes. When I was asking him about self defence with a gun, he says he would not engage in a gun fight without 3 full ammo clips. Being a dummy around guns I would guess this means about 36 rounds.
