Mine has a Ruger Mk III 22/45 with a red dot sight on top. She can put 10 rounds into a quarter at 20 feet. (Or an eyeball)
She also has a little Phoenix Arms HP-22 10 shot .22lr semi auto in the car. She does not carry concealed. But the little car gun is there if she feels the need. Mag is loaded, chamber is empty. So rack the action once and go to it. Spare mag and a 100 round plastic box of ammo is in the case with the gun. It all fits snug and out of sight in a pocket in her drivers side door.
As of Aug 1st ND residents no longer need a CC permit to carry concealed.
But mostly we don't see the need up here. People for the most part are polite, well mannered and law abiding. Still better to have a car gun and not need it than need it and not have it.
