Re: Killed in a Midlothian church

I have a brother in law LEO and he's told me 1000 times, that's the hardest thing to do. Figure out who the BG really is.

It's not easy and not all LEO's wave a sign and a badge, you always have to size it up in a split second.

Re: 71 days and counting

Just to be clear.

I'm not complaining about the wait.

I'm complaining about the lack of information.

Their system needs a complete overhaul, which probably means more funding for better tech and more bodies.

Re: 71 days and counting

Patience I have. Not knowing if I'm zero days gone or 72 days gone is what's killing me. I never received a confirmation e-mail, but did talk to someone on 2/2 that said I had submitted everything. I trust an e-mail more than the kid working the phones. Just say'n it would be nice to see a website t...

Re: 60 Days

Sitting at 72 and no clue if they have everything or not. For all I know they don't have everything and my clock hasn't even started. Their customer service is deplorable.

71 days and counting

I've read a few posts recent about some folks writing their local representative about the excessive time it's taking DPS to process LTC applications and the impossible task of trying to actually get someone on the phone. Does anyone have anything they've used that they'd be willing to share? I've b...

Re: Say it ain't so - Glock issues

I thought I had a problem with my Glock 27 G4 staying open after firing. I talked with an instructor at the range and he told me to mind my left thumb. Sure enough because it's smaller (than my G17) my thumb was getting a little high and because of that little extra bit of friction the slide was sta...

Re: Search Results Are Not Clean

Cool. I reboot my phone often, so that was probably my issue.

I played around i the settings yesterday and wouldn't you know it as I'm driving home from work my Apple Watch starts buzzing.

Just need more people to start posting what they've found.

THANK YOU!!!

Re: Secret Service Report - spotting a weapon

I've never seen a BG with such good trigger finger discipline.

Take a look at the image on the first page.

Re: Search Results Are Not Clean

Russel do you plan on adding geo fencing with alerts so when I get near a biz with (legal) signage my watch/phone beeps at me? Like PawPaw said, our mobile apps (for iPhone and Android) have this feature implemented. You can grab a copy of them here: http://www.texas3006.com/mobileapps.php I've bee...

Re: Florida again

So basically the law says you have to have more than one acre to build a range. That doesn't seem that outrageous. Can you imagine living in a neighborhood with quarter acre lots and having a live range in the middle of it? :iagree: Doesn't seem unreasonable at all. I've got a friend who's dad live...

Re: Old and new deer feeders

Unless you have cows on the property. Then you need a hog panel perimeter around anything you use or it WILL be empty in a week.
