Re: Grab a Gun Rock Island GI 1911 $289.99
I bought one in 9mm at a gun show around 10 years ago for around $400. Been very pleased with it as a training gun.

Re: One more reason to avoid Academy
I used my phone on August 15 while in Oklahoma to order super combo license from TPWD. When I returned to Texas a week later, it was in my mailbox. It also included (without my asking for it) the free Sandhill Crane endorsement that I ordered later last year.

Re: Shots fired at Trump!?!
"Clay Martin has some very impressive credentials. SOTIC is a premier sniper school."
This appears to be click bait, using the circumstances to get some attention. I could be wrong, but it sounds like the first 8 shots came from the kid's AR, then #9 (from a SWAT guy on the ground?) may have very ...

Re: Shots fired at Trump!?!
Mike - Thanks for the research and reply. That also sort of explains MAYBE why they counted 5 casings at first then upped to 8 total later.

Re: Shots fired at Trump!?!
A few hours ago, I read a headline for an article in the Washington Post that indicated a local cop took a shot at the kid and interrupted his shooting. It's one of those "subscription only" things, which I do not do. Hopefully, another news outlet will follow up on that.

Re: LTC 104
Thankfully, I have copies (partially completed) of the LTC-100. And a private class on April 27. In reseaching the DPS web site, I found NO way to print an LTC-100. So, it appears anyone who needs one before May 1 could be up the proverbial creek ......

Re: Can the USPS get any worse?
Guy I trust mailed a check to me from Lewisville (next town over) on Feb. 11. Still have not received. Similar has happened before and it eventually arrived in plastic bag and damage to envelope. I mailed a drawing from Flower Mound on Saturday to a banner making outfit in California. They got it ...

If you go looking for trouble, you can find it. Not impressed with attitude.

Re: North American mag
I have had one with 1 5/8" barrel for at least 25 years. If carried or handled very much, I can atest to the fact that you WILL drop it. As mentioned above, those safety notches are very important. A trim carpenter was showing his new one to me when I asked if he had read the manual. He replied "It ...

Re: Shooting from a moving horse
It's a cool sport, but quite spendy. They use the gunpowder to burst balloons, which keeps spectators alive.
