kd5zex and seamus, two great and very well reasoned posts. I agree that the reason ANYONE should carry a concealed handgun is to protect themselves, their family, and their property. We - as responsible CHL holders - ARE NOT police officers. And insinuating that we think we are or should be just giv...

Ryan- I was told that the problems were associated with the Walther brand. The "newer" models made by Smith? You will have to excuse my lack of knowledge.....I am only able to pass on what was told to me. My Dad carries one of the older models and has few problems with it. Please let us k...

Hello friends. Been lurking here and other CHL/gun boards for a while, but never signed up for one until now.
