My daughter and wife attended one last week (I had to work) they built woodduck and bluebird boxes. When I was with Quail Unlimited we sponsored a youth day every year; wildlife management, firearms safety instruction, rifle, pistol and shotgun shooting all under the close supervision of adults...

How times have changed.. When I went to college we didn't have locks on the doors.

Spacemanspiff- As one who spent four summers doing Security at a theme park during college (I have a B.A. in Political Sience), 3.5 years as a Mall Security officer (three as Asst. Chief) after graduation, and have since been employed as a Security Officer at a Nuclear Power Plant for 21...

Just came off the range last week from night qualifacation--We mount the dot sight a little forward and then had a quick detachable mount made for the NV, mounts up tight the sight and works like a charm. Downside for the individual? $$$$ WFM

Come on guys--It's a damn TV show!! Nothing "real" about it. I did find it funny that the Dad told his daughter that "man are dirtbags" I tell my 12 year old that "All man are scum" Must be a Daddy thing;) Before you all start the flamethrowers she doesn't listen to me anymore than her mother...

foghornl--No big deal, "cooling towers" are not critical equipment. fix- We are Duke (in-house) entry level pay is around $14 or 15 I think(it's been a long time) Everyone-We are a "paramilitary force", we have some training that law enforcement officers do not get and they have training that...

Lawdog is correct; I make over $20.00 an hour and our training exceeds that of most L. E. agencies in this area. We use local off-duty deputies in outlying areas and at the gate to our parking lots because they do not have the required training mandated by the goverment.

From what I have heard about our schools you can pick a county and go to work anywhere in the state. I have had a CCW in both North and South Carolina and the requirements are the same for the most part. Good luck where ever you go.

I'm glad to hear the positive (other than finish) comments, as I have mentioned in an earlier post my dept. is getting rid of our S&W 4043s and are going to the XD9s. The current basic class has been issued the XDs now and the rest of us will be changing over later this year. The newbies seem to...

VaughnT-I want to thank you for the link to the Deluth Trading Co. website. I went over there and think I have found a excellent supplier. The firehose pants/shorts look like great work/range wear for off-duty and training, the gloves will be worn at work and the tshirts and "no-polo"shirts look...
