Ok I wasn't sure if I should divulge more then normal since I am applying for an LEO recruit. Thinking maybe it might help my me. I have 5 guns... Is that considered "many"? Sounds like I should keep it short and not even bring it up. Thanks!

They'll ask about CCW and your guns. You know what to say about the CCW; with guns be prepared to have their serial numbers handy. This may factor in your background check.
Don't forget to start running 3-5 miles a day. Good luck!

They pressed me for my reasoning which I gave... Then proceeded to say well with your good cause anyone can get a CCW??? I said no I don't believe anyone can get a CCW. I was going to go into 2nd amendment rights, etc., but it was an interview and wanted to stay on topic. I will let you know if I make it to the next round.

Did I mention it was only the female officr who kept pushing the issue... What is it with women and CCW's... Elitist I think...

Personally I think women and CCW's get along just fine!!!  Ignorance on the other hand knows no gender.
