Getting back to the original topic....

There's a checkpoint about 20 or so miles south of Alpine in Brewster County. I've passed through it many times on the way back from dove hunts on Elephant Mtn. WMA and from down on some friend's private wasteland in Terlingua Ranch area. The back of a pickup truck or SUV would have all kinds of ...

By accident

I had an experience like another poster on this thread did. I was going to a meeting at a large international oil company here in Houston, had been there many times before and knew the drill. Signed in, told the security desk who I was there to see, handed over my business card and what I thought ...

Good professional instructor for female- San Antonio area

Hi, y'all:

The daughter of my wife's best friend recently was given a handgun for protection. I recommended that she get basic handgun training and then get her Texas CHL ASAP. The young lady is late 20's, grew up in rural Indiana, has a college degree and has a good job in construction project ...

Re: Got a chance to show the police my CHL!!

Showed mine :mrgreen: (CHL, that is!) twice.

I was headed home kind of late (about 10:00 PM) on a Friday night from the old office in Houston's beautiful crime-free Westchase. Headed down Westheimer towards the Beltway and there was a roadblock; HPD was waving everybody over into a strip center ...

Re: So, anybody else CCW a mousegun?

Thanks for the answers, folks.

Knives? I carry a pocket knife of some kind everywhere except on a commercial flight. Carried one since I was 8 or 9 years old. But, heck I'm not a knife fighter although a few years back (25?) I did have some training, and some martial arts. Too many years and too ...

So, anybody else CCW a mousegun?

Just did a search for "mousegun" on the forum and only came up with 2 posts.

First off I will admit to being a mite neurotic about printing, accidental flashing, and such.

When I first got my CHL way back when, I was a real 1911 bigot. I tried carrying my all-steel 1991 Commander in various ways ...

Re: New Member with a Quick Renewal

So I guess the real question is, since this is my 2nd renewal, and I've never done the Wally Walk thing since I didn't know about it until I started coming here, do I have to do that now?

Could I just substitute by wearing my 5" bbl Model 29 IWB while cutting the lawn today? (my normal carry is a ...

New Member with a Quick Renewal

Hi, y'all

I've been lurking here a while. This is a great board, well moderated and the folks here seem to be a great bunch. BTW, I am also a member at The High Road, but I don't get to post much- pretty busy. Probably will be the same way here but when I do I hope it will add something real.

Well ...
