Re: new member Ftw
Bill, the range on Lancaster at 820 has a good collection of rental guns you can try out to help with your decision. My wife and I both used .38 SPL revolvers at first. The recoil was too much for her previously shattered wrist bones from an old horseback accident years ago. I bought a Walther CCP ...

Re: Another newbe
Well this is a question that needs to be clarified. My wife is pretty adept at research and has taken on the challenge to answer it. The guy who gave the class made sure we all had his phone number and told us he'd be happy to answer questions. Of course I'll need to see it written on something a ...

Re: Another newbe
Longhorn86 brought up a valid question. I do remember this being discussed in the class but still spent some time making sure. According to all information I can glean, like many states which recognize permits from other select states, Texas does recognize a Florida CHL and treats it as a Texas CHL ...

Re: Another newbe

We were told in class that we could not enter a school (The building) but could drive into the driveway to pick up ...

Re: Another newbe
I appreciate the responses. Am I mistaken in thinking a full size ACP is too large for summer dress? I wear straight-legged jeans with my Walther and was considering a pair of flair-legged (boot jeans) for the big gun.OR tuck it into a holster inside the waist. I know a 9mm Hollow Point is a ...

Re: Another newbe
I thought about that wording, wondering if it was the correct term. Not really unfriendly, just seems like it might be a little bulky compared to what I have now. Been looking at various models and brands. I do want the weight and the full size to help with kickback. I've got a friend who's carried ...

Another newbe
Hello, Tom here. 58 years in the DFW Texas area. Thirty years ago if you'd told me I'd consider carrying a gun around every day I'd have called you crazy! My wife and I sent our paperwork off for a Florida CHL this week. This world is not the same world I grew up in. I don't look forward to it. I ...
