I have a friend that showed up carrying a SW 357 titanium 8 round bobbed hammer revolver, a Kahr .40 cal compact single stack, AND recently added a 2-shot derringer in 9 mm! All this in a rural area where I have NEVER heard of a theft, much less a violent crime. Seems to break a few of the rules noted above. Is this the definition of "paranoid" or are they really out to get him? Now he wants to go shooting with me. Should I be worried?
This reminded me of something I read. Background info, in case you don't know who Jim Cirillo is: He is well-known for having been a member of the NYPD Stakeout Squad, which had a number of gunfights. IIRC, Cirillo was involved in 12 of them.

The story: Someone asked Cirillo why he carried three guns on him. His response: "Because four would be ostentatious."
