I came across this tonight on EBAY.

I totally don't agree with "advertising". Just thought y'all might find it amusing too.

ps. It might get you pulled over by the cops though being that you're advertising the fact that you're loaded (alcohol) and they might not read any further...LOL.

The same dude who puts one of those on his car is also a prime prospect for flashin' his CCW badge. ;-)

I think that advertising to the world that "you can find 'IT' on eBay" while not allowing me to buy or sell an Uberti Schofield constitutes false advertising.

Why not just just make a sign, hang it on your radio antenna, then when you get out to go in some place hang the same sign around your neck.
Save the cost of 2 signs. :lol:

If you look real close at the bottom of that sign it says "FREE gun in this vehicle!"

Ebay does not pre-screen ads. Ebay depends on the members to report improper listings.

If by reloading equipment you mean powder and primers, you are right, but they do allow sellers to sell bullets, cases, dies etc. They also sell barrels, mags, clips and more. eBay is a good source for all that stuff.
I would guess that there would be some liability on eBay's part if a seller shipped gunpowder without following regulations, or if someone sold a gun to a buyer who was not qualified, by law, to purchase one. I think that's what places like Gunbroker are for. Personally, I wouldn't want to buy a gun like that, but that's me. I prefer to put my hands on it before buying.

It shows the intelligence of the person who created
the sticker. "Driver is Armed" would have been the
right wording. When I first read the sticker, I immediately
thought "Drunk Driver On Board" ;-)

I personally wouldn't want to advertise my concealed carry status to the general public. I like being my own little trojan horse.

Those signs also re-enforce the anti's claim that CHL holders are dangerous...."Use Appropriate Caution" seems to indicate that the occupant is dangerous and will shoot first and ask questions later.

Excellent statement, VP.
"I like being my own little trojan horse."
A perfect mental picture of concealed carry. :smile:

IMO, the basic translation of that sticker is: Shoot first, then take my property.

Those stickers are obviously for people who do NOT have a license but want people to think they do. Idiots!
