plus, once you get your concealed carry license......

CHL is planned for me and the wife.
TX law passed in Sept allows you to carry a loaded concealed gun in your vehicle at all times. No CHL required. I believe you need to be 21 or older. If you get pulled over, simply tell the officer you have a firearm inside.

Did the police ever catch the person who stole your wheels?
It doesn't sound like it from your previos post regarding all the breakins you've had.
It's pretty bad when you can't catch a theif even when there is video footage.

I"m still fuzzy on if I can carry one as well legally. I dont have any felonys but at that time it was a class A misdemeanor to have in possession without a CHL in 2000. Tony, for $650 for each vehicle, you also might want to invest in a non monthly payment and get a lojack system as well. You'll be sure that they get caught then. I know about your Revco system, but I'd rather them get caught red handed and put away for a long time.

It's just as bad is when there is video footage and they either have the camera off at that time or the video is so grainy that one still cant tell who or what the license plate read.

Sorry this happened to you yesterday....I'm glad they didn't f*ck up your nav/stereo stuff or mess up the door.
Back when I was in college some f*cks stole my stereo out of my 1980 Blazer....the box and CD player couldn't have been worth more than $20 at a flea market...think I was more pissed about them stealing my favorite CD in the player at the time. Hopefully Karma catches up to these people...
On another note, pimp truck man!!

That really sucks.
As much as I hate it this is why I bought a beater car to drive every day. I leave my nice things in the garage. The only nice thing about driving a beater car is not putting miles on the nicer rides and if I hit something in the road or someone dents the door in a parking lot I don't even care. Hell, the first time I saw a cardboard box fly off a truck and land in front of me I floored it and watched the box hit and fly over the top of my Prelude

door handle was $85, I replaced it just now. No other damage, luckily.
Filed the police report and gave them the gun serial #. The officer told me that there is usually a good chance of getting it back, because these crooks aren't very smart and usually get busted with the weapon later.
He also said all of those restaurants in that area get stuff broken into daily. The tow truck guy that dropped by also confirmed that. Guess I won't be driving there for lunch anymore
Not sure what a pager alarm would be good for. I'd just walk out and get shot by my own gun.

Buy a TAZER and carry it on you at all times!

Geez, I didnt know they made those already(not sarcastic). Time to invent a device that blocks blockers.
Well hell, if they really want it that bad, no matter what is put on any vehicle, if they want it that bad, they will car jack you. Even armored cars arent safe, proven fact.

Insurance won't do **** since none of the items were permanent/attached to the vehicle. Basically, I just donated a radar, music, and pistol to some lowlife ******* that was too f-cking lazy to work and buy his own stuff.
Door handle just needs to be replaced, cheap fix.

Check with your homeowners policy. Some cover contents of your car.
Mine does (USAA)
If you are going to leave a gun in your vehicle, you should pick up a gunsafe for it. They are availabe in several configs, some are just a locking box with a braided cable, others bolt in.

Damn Tony I hate to hear this ****...
I'll have to agree with Nick, 'for starters'...
Then stuff his sorry MF'n *** in the trunk, bring him out to my house where nobody can hear him scream. A little water-boarding on my picnic table as a teaser, some more tazzering just to see that MF'r sqirm and scream bloody murder, then bury half his body in my pasture, duct tape his mouth shut and let some of the local night predators have their way with him for the evening.
The next morning, if theres anything left, I'd like to take an R/C truck that resembles an Escalade and use his f**kin' face as a play ground for the next several hours and leave him out for another night...that outta do it.
I hate f**kin' thieves... I do have my CHL, I carry every day, and would pull a 'Joe Horn' on their scum bag ***' without hesitation...
"He came at me and I feared for my life". Cocksuckin' thievin' bastards...!!!!!!

probably the same guys that hit my apt complex. I'm on the North side too. They got into my car by drilling the lock then they stole my PCM. the next day they broke into a ram right next to my car and stole his comp and head unit. i would have payed so much to catch them in the act!!
