    Need for high capacity magazines!

    I can sum it up real quick. "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED" that is a simple statement thats easy to understand for most educated people. Personally, I carry a Glock 23 it does not have a 33 round magazine, I dont need or want a 33 round magazine, but if I decide later that for some reason I do...

    First time to pull my side arm today

    Glad you folks are OK The only thing I can add and its been mentioned "Be the complainant" The puke can call and report you, dont allow yourself to become the bad guy in the eyes of the law. Make that call, it can save you a buttload of trouble. Sounds like you got through unscathed...

    Why Are We Fighting Useless Battles?

    Here in Oregon, we have open carry (with some city exceptions) the CCW is easy to get. I think any and all fights when it comes to gun rights is a worthy cause. Carrying open in a liberal state/city etc makes the Muggles very nervous and I really dont want people getting stirred, as you...

    How Critical is Draw Speed?

    I remember a statement from Mas Ayoob that is as clear today as it was back in 1990 "Never draw on a drawn gun" Every situation is a "Dynamic" and all you can do to prepare is to be good at shooting, smooth and reasonably fast with your draw. Practice what Mas Calls the "Stress point...

    Slowly easing Girlfriend into the reason for CCW

    Went back and reread several of the posts over again. C'Mon guys, lose the macho Rhetoric and all that crap. You can't treat a woman that way, "Taint gonna happen" the relationship will fall apart real soon, even if guns are not in the picture. As an instructor, I find myself working...

    I will weigh in here Pacer, good for you. The issue with many women is the emossional thing. For those who do not know (Have not read my Bio) I am a 58 YO woman. Not your basic fem for sure. 6 foot tall and real scrappy. Now with the intro over, women for the most part are creatures...

    Would you skip your guns warranty to fix a small issue yourself?

    Well this is a goodie. Myself being a journeyman machinist and a fairly good smith can certainly agree to some extent. I have always fixed or modified most everything I have ever owned. NOW, I get the ocassional AR type gun that someone should have taken to the warranty shop rather than...

    Top shot show on History

    Let me say this, the attitude of the competitor makes or breaks them from my perspective. Now, just look at season one, there were a few shooters on there that were very much just full of themselves. Others gave their all for their team and just did the best they could without all the ego...

    Can't use PayPal to pay for guns?!

    I spoke with Paypal a long time ago about this issue. I spoke with a high level supervisor and the response I got was, " we do not want to open ourselves up to law suits by overzelous attorneys who are looking for someone to sue over something. Basically, the thinking is, If we (paypal)...

    CCW at Gunshow

    I mentioned the courthouse and such as a reference and to make a point, that we dont always get to take our guns everywhere we want, just because we have a CCW. The point is valid. Snowy
