Re: Home invasion advice

Home invasion is generally used when people are home. This appears to be a burglary.

Re: Need holster/belt suggestions and info...

Wilderness Instructor and IWB Blade-tech NANO. Cheap. I also retired a very expensive holster in favor of the NANO.

I carry a full size Glock 17.

Don't forget the southern accented President from 1993-2001...

A RINO is worse than a democrat in my opinion. At least with Obama we are on guard.

Re: Gun sticking in Holster

Belt tension, especially for a leather holster, is going to be one of the keys for retention strength of the holster. The snaps also sound defective, are they pull the dot type snaps? On plastic holster I use silicon. On leather, I just did a ton of presentations. Kydex has been fine out of the box.

Re: How much printing is ok?

I've posted before, but my first carry experience was in NY after a day of sighting in my new hunting handgun, a .45 Colt Blackhawk 5.5" barrel. A couple buddies and I were shooting, getting ready for deer season and after we finished wanted to get a bite to eat. Instead of getting take out, we...

Re: To carry on a work business trip or not

Ahh Detroit. Used to live there, still root for the teams. Risk of losing your job sounds pretty high, or you wouldn't be asking. Risk in Detroit...probably the same as any other big city. The bad areas are easier to spot than some cities (if there is a row of abandoned houses and a couple are on fi...

Re: Conditon White = no good....

"No" + "Back off" works well. You need to spot these guys ahead of time. He never should have gotten within 6 feet of you. Arm to arm, that is a normal distance for conversation between strangers.

Re: Question about "Parking Lot Bill"

I work for a very large Arizona based company. Large as in 51,000 employees in 42 states. When I asked the management if they would be changing the employee hand-book where it states no firearms allowed in personal vehicles, the official answer was no. Their explanation was the company parking lot ...

Re: HB681/SB321 Parking Lots Bill is on the Floor

Please move if this belongs in another place. What is to stop an employer from posting 30.06 signs at the parking lot? Then CHLs would be prohibited by state law (which the SB 321 says is an exception to the new law) and since a CHL is required to have the firearm under SB 321 as part of the new la...
