Re: Is the cat out of the bag on 30.06?
Let me enlighten you to another reason you see the gun buster signs and improper use of 30.06 signs. In some instances it is intentional in order to comply with an insurance company's demand to post a no weapons sign in order to get a cheaper commercial liability policy. The policy does not stipulat...

Re: SB17 OC Bill On Intent Calendar for 3-16-2015.
I had been receiving multiple emails and calls from OCT and another gun rights group that I thought was a bit radical for me. I asked them nicely to quit calling and to remove me from their mailing lists. Nice evidently did not register with them, so I got ugly, real ugly, I can't repeat what I told...

Re: Police want to check your serial #
An officer that exercises his lawful authority needs no further burden to run your serial number. If you have been stopped, probable cause has been established. Even prior to CHL, an officer had the legal right to a warrant less search of any part of your car within reach of the driver. If the offic...

Re: Florida Senate Approves Warning Shot Bill
If a threat is to the point that discharging my weapon is justified, it will not be a warning shot. It will be discharged with the intent to neutralize the threat.

Re: Police want to check your serial #
If you are stopped and the officer exercises his lawful authority to disarm you and you refuse, you will probably be arrested. I was a LEO for 15 years, prior to CHL, if I was on the streets today, it is unlikely I would disarm most who carry. Most officers I have come in contact with simply hand th...

Re: i drew my weapon tonight
I did not read all 5 pages of responses to the OP. The OP did a great job here. I have said many many times on this board you don't know how you will respond until you are put in a situation where you have to respond. It was night time, that in itself raises more concerns, the other vehicle was driv...

I personally hope we never see open carry here. But that is just my opinion.

Re: Poll, PC 30.06 in "Private Businesses"
I thought I had posted this in response to this poll, but I don't see it, so if this is a duplicate post I apologize. 1- The private property owner has the right to control that property under his/her care, custody and control. Their rights do supersede the privilege enjoyed by a CHL holder. Persona...

Re: Enhanced CHL
I have thought this to myself for a long time.

Re: PISTOL STORAGE WHILE ON VACATION?
I have often wondered if there would be enough demand for storage to purchase a couple of used armored trucks, modify the rear with a sitting area and park near the courthouse or airports. A person who carries climbs in back, unloads his/her weapon, gets a receipt, and the weapon is stored in a lock...

Re: Off duty request for ID
