Re: Why I carry, even in the house

I unholstered my hi-point 9mm and charged the weapon You don't carry it ready to go? Think there will always be plenty of time to charge it when you need it? This was one of those rare times that I didnt have it cocked and locked. I had just gotten home and "thought" that we were in the f...

Re: Drew on a guy today

But I bet he'll never dump trash again :lol: I am with you on certain parts of the situation. I too get frustrated when lowlifes do stupid stuff like dump trash, let their dogs bark all night, jay walk, and generally treat the world like they are the most important thing there and we all should bow ...

Re: Why I carry, even in the house

lol Yeah, I thought of OC but I'd rather not let me neighbors know there's any fireams in the house. Especially that a neighbor to our immediate right isn't a citizen of the most upstanding way. Ha ha! Yea, we all have "that" neighbor. I know there are quite a number of members here that ...

Re: Fort Hood alters gun registry rules

What's sadder about this whole thing is that the sheeple of the world will read it and say "Wow. That will fix the problem. I feel safe again". :banghead: Again, these are the same people that think gunbuster signs and stuff like that will ACTUALLY keep bad guys away. I laugh when I watch ...

Re: Bradys help write the news again?

A guy I work with here is from the UK (accent and all) and after I got tired of listening to him drone on an on about how great the UK is and how gun crime is down, I let him in on that little fact (that knifing and other violent crime went through the roof). His response "that is just lies tol...

Re: Why I carry, even in the house

Carry 24/7 or guess right..... To the person that doesnt like solicitors, we have had some success with putting up a no solicitor sign. My wife and I fought about that, but everytime I sat down for dinner, the doorbell would ring and my wife would not answer the door (I didnt want her to answer eith...

Re: IWB vs OWB

So here's more info about my first week. On the second day our family and some friends are going out together, taking their SUV. My wife suddenly starts talking about me getting the CHL, and her friend says she hopes I'm not carrying a gun with me. And my wife agrees. I just laughed, and they took ...

Re: IWB vs OWB

I daily carry IWB my hi-point 9mm with a cheapo ($14 tuckable holster from cheaper than dirt at 8 o'clock (I'm a lefty). I enjoy it as it keeps the gun nice and tight to me and it is easily accessible. True, the pants need to be a little bigger and you need a decent belt, but all in all it is an eas...

Re: Right to Self Defense

If you want to "really" learn about self defense in real world situations, may I recommend Krav Maga. Very good stuff from my experience. I am sure that there are others (and I dont want to get into my crane style is better than your monkey style :lol: ), but Krav is a good self defense sy...

Re: Right to Self Defense

I work with a Brit that has naturalized here in the US. It has been a hoot to hear him drone on about how great it is over there. He has heard from other folks that I am a "conservative" and started a conversation with me about health care. After he told him the wonderful thing managed hea...

Re: Tracing a gun back to you

The wife was asking me some gun questions, and I was talking about some dummy saying he would shoot a robber and put a gun in his hand before the cops got there. She asked if you bought the gun from say Academy would the police be able to trace that gun back to you without using fingerprints, balli...

Re: Present CHL when not the driver

From the 2007-2008 CHL handbook for Texas QA section Q: If I am not carrying my handgun, must I still carry my license? Under the concealed handgun law, you are only required to have your license with you whenever you are carrying your handgun. However, many license holders choose to carry their lic...

Re: Present CHL when not the driver

I saw some of the responses and need to get something cleared up. A few posters mentioned that if you are asked by a LEO for ID, you dont have to give them the CHL if you are not carrying. I know that there was a law that went into effect on (I think) Sept or October 1st that stated that the PENALTY...

Re: Concealed Carry and Worrysome Family

Well, since the cat is already out of the bag, it is important to be respectful yet firm on your beliefs. When my mom in law found out that I was interested in guns, I got the "blood in the streets" speech. I attempted to use facts and figures to convince her....logic doesnt work on emotio...
