    Which Name Brand Do You Own Poll (revised)

    Agree with Ride and BigDaddyDan, no Sig options. Hm-m-m-m-m, guess the 4 Sig's I own don't count. o~\o

    Empty Holster in Post Office?

    I recently forgot to remove my 'small of the back' holster when I flew to Chicago. The inspection guy had me remove from my belt, continued to "wand" me all over, handed the holster back to me and said have a good flight. Like some people have said, piece of nylon and a metal clip...not a...

    Brandishing?

    Just wondering what some of you would have done in this case. Got my opinions but will reserve them to myself. http://youtube.com/watch?v=lWqVIdq9NH8 o~\o

    What to do when you see a "No Guns" Sign

    On a recent visit to one of our local sports bars I noticed is now supporting one of the State's 51% signs (51% revenue is derived from the sell of alcohol) right as you walk in the door. Don't know just how long it's been there but just noticed it a couple weeks ago. The place sells a hell of...

    This is how it is done in Texas

    LoL!!! found out several months ago that when crossing over into Canada and the young lady ask you for your citizenship...you don't say "TEXAN". OMG!!! The look she gave me.......I smiled, took a couple steps back then walked back up to the window. She kinda grinned, saw a slight glimmer in...

    Colt Government Model .380

    I picked up two of them up before the price started going thru the roof. They are really nice pistols. I put Pachmayr grips on mine and left the stock grips on the GF's. They are nice shooting guns and a real easy carry pistol. I think I read that the last production was in 1984. Don't know...

    Results of New York Gun Control Day 2008

    I agree with RDak, WoW!!! I can't believe what I just read and think the funniest one in the list of bill is: A-9819A, requires "microstamping" on all pistols even though the technology doesn't exist. Another surprise, at least for me, was MSNBC's reporter taking the stand he did in the...

    Just got my CMMG Bargain Bin M4!!!

    Bluerider, experienced the same wobble you're talking about. I put "Accuwedge's" in both my Bushmaster and my Rock River. Cured the wobble. Matter of fact I made mention of this little piece to one of my friends over in the sand box...long story short ended up sending a dozen over to him. o~\o

    My Marine buddy over in the sandbox just sent me another and NO I haven't verified any of it: "When someone asks me why I carry a gun, I reply: * Because it is my right. * For self defense. * Why aren’t you carrying? * Because when seconds count, the police are just minutes away. *...

    Probably more web pollution as you say...received from a buddy fighting over in the sand box. Just found it interesting...didn't verify any of it. Guess I posted as more thought provoking ... o~\o

    John Steinbeck once said:

    Where guns are outlawed you can be assured the outlaws have them! The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental. As...

    What are laws in TX for handgun shooting outside?

    I'm having all kinds of problems trying to figure out WHY ranges are charging a per gun fee vs a lane fee. All ranges up in this part of the country charge a 'per lane' fee. You occupy a lane for say an hour for a fee, what difference does it make which gun or how many guns you shoot. ...

    What are laws in TX for handgun shooting outside?

    Newbie, check out the site below. We have quite a bit of 'public' land up in the Panhandle especially along the Canadian River and Red River areas. There's also quite a bit that we've hunted down south in the Alpine, Marfa and Presidio areas. But all of these are quite a hop-skip-and jump from...
