Is it illegal to keep one in your car? Ie the cooper can take it as an offensive weapon etc?

 

with the other kit that goes with it... yes

alex

 

Make sure you have a few balls to go with it.



Dave.

 

If u look in all the pics of me car ul see a base ball in the window

 

yup, you need bawlls to use it

 

funny though if u carry a bat & ball ur ok

but if you carry a semi auto with 2000 rounds its worse

just not fair if u ask me

 

FPMSL

 

erm dont think it matters if its in the boot

say ya came home as ya lost ya ball

 

i have a strg lock(anti theft thing) that looks remarkably like a baseball bat when it is off of the strg wheel, i have found this rather conveniant on more than one occasion hehehe and it is totally legal

Pugo

 

Carry it but will you use it????

I got hit once by a baseball bat across the shoulder/neck/head and it snapped at the handle ( wooden type ) the look on the guys face was a picture when he realised that I was still standing infront of him......... shortly followed by a wack by my ally bat followed by "should've bought an ally 1 mate they don't snap".....

 

now your a big guy but all i can think of you now is you with a ally bat on ya shoulder( vinnie in lock stock style) and a fancy coffee in the other

 

The point is if it come to it would you use it ?? and where would you strike ?

i used to carry one all the time and a berata 9mm gun ( blank fire one) but one of our local hels angles told me what would you do if you pulled a bat on some one and they had one aswel or worse for me i waved my 9mm around and some one had a real one

All this was over 10 years ago so i have grown up now

So no i don't carry anymore

 

I find the MRS in the passenger seat works a treat.

 

You know that........ too old for that shite nowadays

 

i used to carry a few odd tools in me car, one day when i needed em was the day i bought a fooking new car, stopped further up the road, looked in boot of new car and all i could find was a plastic jerry can, FLAT AND FOOKING BALD spare wheel and a diamond jack, opened it up walked up to the guy who i had a issue with, tapped on his shoulder and belted him in the face with it, caught me fooking fingers in the opening when i belted him too, that fooking hurt


my car has never been touched since though


my best mate on the other hand it a fookign psycho, he used to carry a brand new unopened box on knifes in his boot, the day when we was removing a cossie of a guys drive ( we was asked to btw, not actualy robbing it) the guy showed up and when i asked for proof its his car he went over to his car and came back towards us with his hand behind his leg, me mate seen me argue as he was at the boot, he opened the pack of knifes and went straight over to the jamacan guy who claimed to own the car, pinned him against the saph and said open ya hand









was the keys to the car



ahhhhhh the fun days

 

Yes m8 carry a ball and if you use it get rid of it some where so you can collect it later as i nearly got done (and the bloke got away before i got to him and he went to the police ) but as they could'nt find it they could'nt do any thing thank god

They Had 3 police cars around me stopping me going any where tho

 

2 arms and legs make good enough weapons when connected to the right body! Can't see a need for tools to be honest cowards way imo

 

i got a 10 cell maglight, can afford the batts though

 

if you're going out for a fight aye but not when you're protecting you/your motor at a moments notice! there might more than one, they might even have weapons themselves.. and they might even backoff at the sight of a lengthy bat

Sayin' that i don't carry anything, i'm thinking 12bore

 

you got one chance of a hit with a baseball bat IMO... you miss or dont connect and you aint got chance for another swing.

its also not practical to carry inside the car.. and not much use anyway.. as you get out say car jacking etc... what ya gonna do??

just seems bit OTT imo.

weapons only really good for a threat unless you really really willing to go for it and take the consequences.
you use a bat on someone who hasnt got a weapon and youre going to get put away. (unless of course they are breaking into your home etc)

 

fuck a baseball bat, its not the best weapon, too big and not that good, esp the wood ones which break too easy, actually a cricket bat is better, and thats still shit.

and when it comes down to it, you gonna use it? getting it out n thinking your bigstyle is all well n good, but when your not in the right frame of mind to use it and the other person just steams in and knocks you spark out, its not much good.

if youl honestly tihnk oyul use it without hesitating, use somthing smaller like ideally a pig extenable baton, or just a big wrench

 

I was round my(now) wifes flat, a few years back when 2 scrotes tried knicking her golf, i grabs my metal lock out of my car whilst they are inside hers trying pathetically to break the strg lock off, they see me coming and locked the fookin doors, now after previously trying to punch my way through a door window and breaking my hand, i blew the drivers window with the bat then proceeded to bladder the bloke in the driving seat with it whilst his mate leapt out of the car and was running like fook up the road screaming blue murder??????
I shattered the blokes cheekbone and dragged the sorry fooker out onto the pavement before beating and kicking him to within an inch of his life, wife to be had called the filth , they turned up nicked me and him, i got done for affray (Ł300 and bound over for a year) he got done apparently but i never heard,

Now you might think i am a coward but those 2 little fooks could have been tooled up and i wasn't prepared to risk it
they bring a stick, i will bring a knife, they bring a knife and i will bring a gun, i am not prepared to lose, it ain't the queensberry rules on the street, its win or die.

oh yeah i had hit the guy about 4 times with the end of the bat


Pugo

 

you guys must live in rough parts of the world - no need for weapons where i live!!

and tbh if someone wants your car bad enough then they are going to get it. reminds me of the time karl got his car jacked, a baseball bat would hardly of stopped that.

 

atm, i'm not carrying anything, but think i should.

in my old 3i cab, i had a guy threaten to 'cut' me and pulled a knife out, but didn't actually do anything.

closest thing i have to a weapon atm is a stoplock which isn't much use.

i did use to have a telescopic wheel wrench, put i'm not sure how good it would have been.

my mate keeps a massive wooden sword in the boot of his clio. its one used for martial arts. the good thing is, he can reach over and pull the back seats down and get it out the boot whilst he's driving/sitting in the front seat.

it would to a fair bit of damage too i think

 

pugo... you got one chance of a hit... and connected!! so then as a reward for your good shot you get a few more...

and in fairness they were in the car...

im talking here about it been the otherway round - as in carrying it in the car.


i have a ball pane hammer under my bed at home that if got a fair swing, but homes home. oh and practice wooden sword from my jujitsu days thats similar to a baseball bat but has a sharp edge!! (well not sharp but it would break bone if it hit)

 

Rhys, buy a stun gun and some CS gel

But dont get caught with it

 

you missed out the end bit 5 years for the stun gun
same as a gun shooting type in uk

 

The way stun guns are 5yrs is crazy IMO.

They not projectile weapons (unless you got a tazer), and not leathal/permanent (unless you very very unlucky), zap, down, the end, no mess, no fuss.

If i was prime mininster theyd be mandatory

 

Anything can be an offensive weapon as it depends on how you use it!

Fist
Foot
Bat
Steering wheel
Gearknob

The result is an offensive weapon if used in the wrong way!

 

can of de icer....

i aint got owt in me car, well, i got a couple of screw drivers in the door pocket, that could be used to good effect id imagine

 

I look a mean bastard so I have not had any probs so far.

Cam

 

I'd say it's all in the psychology, if someones got the red mist you can stick knives in them all day they'll still try to chew your face off.

 

Also depends how charlie'd up they are, never forget once when we about 19 and 2 twats at lot older than us kicked off for nowt up beer gardens one afternoon, was 5 of us, 2 went to the car n got dumbell bars, smashing the fuck out of em, theyd fall down, then theyd get back up again and try n carry on
It was like a zombie film, anyone else wouldve been dead by then, they just kept getting back up n trying to fight

 

PMSL @ Steve

Wouldn't want to get in a fight with someone who has AIDS tho, imagine that.

 

YOU FOOKIN COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONT

IF YOU WERE ELECTED , THE NEXT DAY THE AGE OF CONSENT WOULD BE LOWERED FROM 16 TO 14

 

ROFL And you know youd vote for me Deano

 

FOOK OFF WOULD I















ID BE YOUR DEPUTY PM

 

Well i had an incident when some your lad swung a baseball bat at me whilst in my back garden and was more than surprised when it was cut clean and half, him and his mate started screaming as they ran and jumped over the fence.

As they famous advert said. For my Paul Chen Samurai sword there was mastercard, the look on there faces was priceless
