Re: First trip to the range with my new PPS 9mm
Check this image: http://www.katychl.com/images/handgun_shooting_symptom_chart.jpg It is probably worth mentioning that these charts were made for one handed shooting and there are other factors that can throw you off with a two handed grip. The PPS is fairly snappy for a 9mm. Since your first shot...

Re: Coworkers CHL brother stops armed robbery
I wonder how many of the people that were in that room are going to end up with CHLs. Hopefully all of them but two.
That is a seriously brave dude.

I bet they make most of their money off of the fact that nobody wants to crush just ONE car.

Re: TSRA site compromised
If you are running on a common CMS platform and don't have the resources available to keep things patched and secure, it is probably worth looking into moving to a managed solution where the hosting provider is responsible for these sorts of things. Blogs and CMS software are constantly exploited by...

Re: Summertime Cover Garment
Thirding the Dickie's shirts. They are great. I'd recommend trying them on at a uniform store or something before ordering them online, though, because for whatever reason all the styles of shirts are cut completely different. The two-tone ones are cut like a size larger compared to the standard wor...

Re: Taco Cabana - West Houston shooting
So I have never spent any time in that part of Houston, other than to zoom past while driving down the Beltway. What is that part of town like? I'm not entirely sure because I live on the other side of 10, but my wife works right down the beltway. I drop her off on my way to work and I often stop a...

I hate seeing stories like this, clicking through, and realizing it is somewhere that I go fairly often.

I think the general rules is, if you were fingerprinted, list it.

Re: Texas Knife Laws - New Info
Well, I think that the fact that Texas is so large that SOME parts of the state had very high slave concentrations vs other parts where there were either very few or none. Depends on what part of Texas you are talking about. That's true, but it is mostly because certain parts of the state are a lot...

Re: Texas Knife Laws - New Info
I'm curious to see some sort of census data or something to back up that 30% figure. Not saying in the least that there weren't slaves in Texas, but I'm just curious as to the source for that figure. Do you have a link so I can go read up on it? I'm always willing to learn something new. Most of my...

Re: Texas Knife Laws - New Info
We all know about the racist roots of gun control but slave labor was never a big thing in Texas, so freed slaves weren't either. Carpetbaggers running TX worried a lot more about white/black/brown folks who thought they should be free. Shortly before the Civil War started, something like 30% of th...

Re: Pictures Of Your Daily Carry
Here's a new one for me. Walther PPS in 9mm. Shoots real well, but I think that I need to pickup a limbsaver for it. The back corner of the beavertail and the base knuckle of my thumb seem to want to occupy the same space during recoil. After 50 or so rounds it isn't all that fun anymore... :grumbl...

Re: Lawsuit takes aim at The Arms Room
Your attitude isn't appreciated. The source you cite doesn't support your claims. Look at pages 16 - 17 where it recommends the use of ear muffs, or even ear plugs, in indoor shooting ranges. See also page 15 and the discussion of the danger of noise levels in the 138 to 140db, not the 82db range y...
