New Property Warning Sign

[Lee Barner]

thought this would be appropriate since I am retired AF. Lee

Don’t expect any trick or treaters.

 

[Rudi]

Straight to the point!

 

[Donn]

Whatever floats your boat. To me, signs like this say you have guns, and are an invitation for bad guys to pay a visit when you're not home.

 

[Pisgah]

All I know is, since I was a kid, "I am the biggest, baddest so-and-so on the block" has been an invitation to every low-mentality thug to take the challenge.

Thanks, but no thanks...

In addition to the comment in post #4, should you ever have an actual incident on the property, the local cops/prosecutor may/may not see the humor in your sign. OTOH, the attorney for your potential "victim(s)" will absolutely LOVE it. Especially in the case of any civil action afterward.

It's a written (and posted on the internet) version of "Ifn anyone breaks into my house, I'ma gonna get mah gun and..............." (Express an intent to shoot regardless of a lack of any actual threat)

IT'S A JOKE FOLKS. GET A LIFE. LEE

Good grief …….

Folks that advertise how ruff & tough they are, usually are not.

I’m with you Lee. I thought it was kinda funny. My son is at OSI academy right now. He Just finished course on interrogation & negotiations. The AF does train some LOL

 

[two-bit cowboy]

It's funny, Lee.

Most polite, too. It says, "Please." Almost an obsolete word nowadays.

Thanks for sharing it.

 

[two-bit cowboy]

My son is at OSI academy right now.

Will you please ask your son to ask the instructors if any of them have seen a S&W Chiefs Special Model 36-1 like this one?

According to Dr. Jinks' letter, S&W shipped 1,420 of these to the Air Force in the spring of 1971. That's probably too long ago for any contemporary OSI agents to be familiar with them.

Lee,

Here is my sign,

To many of you others, Since I have three Goldens, I guess that means I have three guns?

I sure will. I’d love to find him a USAF model 15 for graduation. I have the belt, holster and pouches. I just need the gun.

Lee, feel free to use this where needed:

 

[CH4]

Other than SP, CC and PJ AFSCs, who in the USAF actually carried guns after BMT?

 

[Bald1]

There are several “jobs”. When deployed my son was on a RAMS team. He carried a rifle and sidearm. There are at least 4-5 designated special ops field (including PJs as mentioned). Anti snipers and security forces. OSI Special Agents. I’m sure there’s more.

 

[soFlaNative]

Should make a sign
Trespassers beware I may faht in your general dyrection.
If that doesn't work then they're fair game.

 

[BLACKHAWKNJ]

Yes, it's a joke but as others have pointed out, humor is not always universal. Plus a lot of criminal types can't read.

 

[ameridaddy]

I'd rather that interlopers be surprised.
However, if you're going for up front bravado, here's a sign I like.
