CCW Badge?

Or in "Out of Sight," when Michael Keaton wore the windbreaker with the huge letters "FBI" across the front.

That was a raid jacket and is authorized duty wear. And I think he was ATF...

This has been covered before. If you want it for your desk as a coolness factor, so be it. DON'T carry it with you. I'd rather invest in a good wallet (id holder) that opens up and shows license with CCW/LTC.

This way, if I get pulled over, I can hand my ID to LEO and it will automatically communicate that I am an LTC holder.

I think this is perfect. When stopped always announce you have a gun in the car and you have a CCW. The cop will ask where the gun is or say ok lets see you DL and CCW permit.

If had stopped you and you handed me this ID wallet I would be thankful and impressed.

To the OP....when I was not retired and was stopped...never was I asked for the badge....every gun show you can buy a badge...a badge is worthless...the ID card or for CCW's the permit is what is needed. You're wasting your money buying a CCW badge.

Thanks! LOL Actually, my son did just remind me that I did advertise that I had implants done by wearing my "Yes, They're Fake" t-shirt. BUSTED!(no pun intended!)

This comment is completely useless without pics ;-)

That you tube video is astonishing.

CCW badges are just another way for permit holders to self-aggrandize, as if many don't do enough of that as it is.

Badge yes, id holder no. A seperate fold or holder inside your wallet specifically for your CCW(s) is a smart idea.

I don't have a sperate pocket or holder for mine but definately see the need. It is hard enough to find my CCW under normal circumstances. Last thing you want to have to do after an incident is search through your wallet for one of many credit card sized ids (out of state) or folded up id (CA) freaking out thinking it fell out or you lost it. You'll probably be in full on panic mode at that point, still suffering from shock and adrenaline overload. It would be very convinient. Just hand the officer that part of your wallet that holds the CCW(s). Keeps suspicion and doubt from entering his mind, and keeps you as calm as you can be given the circumstances.

We were both wrong-- it was an FBI t-shirt.

Hhahhaaahhahaa... "tell me Ray, do ever wear one that says undrecover?" - that's so classic!

I am so frequently wrong, I don't try to be right. I was speaking specifically to the wind breaker as a raid jacket.

BTW, Michael Keaton played a character with the same name in two movies, Outta Sight and Jackie Brown. He was not credited with the cameo in Outta Sight.

After the badge, you'll only need the flashing lights...

I recently took the Utah CCW course and am awaiting my permit in the mail. A guy recently showed me his in a snazzy case with a gold badge - it was pretty cool. I see websites online that sell said badges, but they are quasi-official looking and I was wondering if I could aggravate an LEO (while traveling in an approved state) having it with my ID. Any thoughts?

I used to think I'd need it if I CCW'd to avoid getting shot at by police....but come to realize, they'd shoot anyway.

Best thing to accompany your CCW and gun is probably some sort of shielding I'd think.

I heard that the Pink Pistols thought that the CCW badges were just too gay.
