No but im sure your draw time with the barrel length would be long enough for me to get out of sight.

Don't count on it. I could take 2 seconds to draw, two seconds to aim and there is no way you could be out of range. Remember I don't have to hit you, just mark your vehicle for later identification. Don't know much about guns and shooting, do you? :roll:

speaking of annoying things, some kid threw gravel at me while i was riding. well that * me off so i go around the block and skid across his lawn at 40. then i ran home and parked it so i dont get a reckless driving/speeding/willful property damage ticket. lmfao bad idea?

No, that's better than going to jail for whooping his *! I had 3 punks throw firecrackers at my wife and i so i took off after them. The kid in the back just layed down in the back seat and the other 2 just stared straight ahead. I "asked" them to pull over but they wouldn't :twisted:. I'm sure they'll think twice about throwing s*** at a slooowww scooter again :surprise:.

Chances are when they find out you are carrying they will wet themselves and run away. If they are feeling drug brave and they actually try to attack you, after the first one goes down, the rest are gone. You have to understand gang mentality or lack there of any mental process.
