Re: New TX Resident with other state RESIDENT license

The problem with getting a verbal answer from DPS is the same as a verbal answer from any government entity about any question.... you can talk to 3 different people, ask the same question and get three different answers.

Re: Carry style

Right side, OWB using Safailand paddle holster with mag/cuff paddle pouch on left side. The same setup I use on duty except I carry G20SF on duty and Shield 45 off duty. I always conceal off duty. If it's cool enough a light jacket, if warm weather I wear shorts with t-shirt and open short sleeve co...

Re: TSA Contact

Yes, you have to have a "real ID" to fly but not to exercise arguably the most important duty we as Americans have and that is to vote. Yes sir, typical Federal bureaucrat logic.

Re: John Cornyn of Texas is focused on bump-stocks

Anybody else baffled by the NRA's call for additional regulations on bump fire stocks? :headscratch Not baffled at all. It is a smart move from the NRA to reduce the liberals momentum. :tiphat: P.S.: Why would a normal person want a device to increase firing rate anyway? Using a loopholes is what O...

Re: Problems wth a Ruger LCP II

Nary a problem with my LCP Coyote Special! As for Glocks, excellent guns but they just don't fit my hands. Too fat and wrong angle in the grip unless it's the single stack models and even those are the wrong angle

Re: HB421

I have NO love for the security industry in Texas. They do have a well funded lobbying arm and for some reason ( money? ) they hold sway over our legislators. A prime example is when they managed to get a bill passed years ago that made it illegal for non full time Texas Peace Officers to work extra...
