Re: Guess I wasn't discreet enough! Thoughts?
As always, good advice and pointers to a new person. TAM, I like your suggestion about FAQs. I always perform a search, but it's hard to pin-point the exact question!

Guess I wasn't discreet enough! Thoughts?
A fellow came to the door tonight when I was home with my three young children. They all ran to the door and I told them not to answer it. They were seen, obviously, by the man. While they were staring through the window, I was pocketing my Sig P938. He had backed off the porch, so I answered the do...

Re: Close Encounter?
As a result of a different post here I'm reading Rory Miller's "Facing Violence". It's an excellent read so far and gives one insight into the thought processes of those who would perpetrate violence. One interesting idea is that most of us are taught to be polite, especially to strangers....

Re: Going to Disney World!
We're going in February, so I appreciate the post and any updates. Question: I hold a Texas CHL which prohibits carry into an amusement park. Well, since I'm licensed in Texas, under Texas rules, does reciprocity mean that I'm prohibited from carrying into an amusement park in a different state even...

Re: Another California to Texas Article
Careful with the 'Native Texan' stuff. Unless you're a Native American you could be subject to the same criticism...it's what you bring more than where you were born.Chris wrote:Colorado is now a blue state for the same reason.
Unless you were born here, you are a guest. Treat it accordingly.

Re: Bob Costas anti-gun rant
It seems that with a little introspection the NCAA and NFL (NBA, MLB, NHL, etc.) would realize that the system is pushing these young men into bad positions. They get recruited in high school, put on a pedestal in college, given millions of dollars, and never expect them to learn anything more than ...

Re: Transporting Personal Firearms Across State Lines?
Yes, because I went back to the FFL to ensure that he understood I was talking about an interstate transfer...And they know you're talking about a transfer across state lines?

Re: Transporting Personal Firearms Across State Lines?
Just talked to an FFL who contacted the BATFE to get a ruling on the situation. According to the FFL, per conversation with the BATFE, no transfer is required, it's a private transaction. This is too difficult, I think I'll just have him sell the firearms and pay me cash. Now, would that require a t...
