    Vehicle 'Carry'

    Uncle Mike's #36 (IWB, clip, at 11 or 1 o'clock, or 4:30/7:30), and return the LCP to your pocket before you exit the car.

    What .22 for a backpacking hunting gun?

    Not yet mentioned: Rifle - Chiappa Badger. Take-down .22 LR, simple, single-shot, crisp trigger, 16" barrel, ghost sights, leaves $200 for optics (rail). Ruger also has a take-down 10/22. Handguns - Ruger Mark I/II with an optic (I like the Tac-lite posted in this thread) or any of the...

    22lr versions of your carry gun for training.

    RW: not yet mentioned, you'd be looking for the Taurus 94 .22 lr (18 oz.) to complete your training/carry pair. Does the weight sound about right? Smith and Wesson had been doing this for a long time, and I still don't think they're actively marketing this concept, but folks here (and at...

    very lightweight long gun

    Keltec SU 16 is lightweight. Pistol-caliber leverguns, surprisingly, very lightweight. In the original magazine-tube configuration (4 + 1), the 930 is very handy, and familiar. Not much lighter, but the balance changes significantly, for the better. I'd prefer the handling characteristics...

    Couples tactics for older folk

    The above-mentioned reading is worthwhile, and I'll add a few things off the top of my head not relating to knives, sticks, or spray, or automobile SA, since that'll be well-discussed. It may generate some controversy, as some of the 'answers' do not speak to fighting instinct, training, or...

    Interviewed at the ATM

    All 'troughs' have associated risks. An ATM, unfortunately, is quite thoroughly conventional. No going back. .38 special and/or a .380 (or even .32 acp, for that matter) 'feels' just fine for the single bachelor who can still sprint a little, move laterally, and react reasonably quick...

    Advise on my current collection

    Sell the Judge. The go-to HD gun should be comfortable (especially recoil-wise) for the smallest/weakest of the family-unit. Maybe a used 20 gauge pump. If she doesn't like the felt recoil of a revolver on the hands, likely she won't have any interest in 12 gauge felt recoil on the...

    Profanity

    There was that exercise, way back when, demonstrating the 'command' voice .... "Get the 'F-' outta here or I'm gonna shove this up your 'F-ing' 'A-'!" Not suggested by the NRA script, but whaddya gonna do? (Don't recall the name of the rude guy doing all that cursing .... :evil:)...

    Florida MD restrictions overturned.

    It is not surprising that you would continue, for as long as possible, to place the burden upon others to make the case (giving you more post-fuel to simply be content as the dilatory cross-examiner), before you decline to make yours (by making cross-examination the only substance of your...

    Florida MD restrictions overturned.

    Continuing to snark-out, and then cry about the thread being closed at the same time? Methinks you protest too much. So, let's get back to the substance, then. What harms are doctors preventing by inquiring/recording/disseminating firearms ownership (and their number), and the method of...

    Florida MD restrictions overturned.

    Loosedhorse: You've an interesting way to discern motive. "He must be after me, since he remembers topics of discussion!" Nope, this is a subject of interest to me (my dad's a doc, my grandfather's a doc, and I have more aunts/uncles/cousins that are docs than I can count on both hands, and...

    Florida MD restrictions overturned.

    First, I meant doctors decide which are the harms, and the way to address them (i.e., achieve prevention of such harms). Nice way to ride a collateral mis-statement into the sunset. That out of the way, let’s get to some of the rest .... I have no love for Obamacare, and that kind of...

    Florida MD restrictions overturned.

    LoosedHorse: You’re ‘hitting of the issues’ with ‘already in place, already covered’-comments are unresponsive to the fact that these practice areas were mentioned to demonstrate that governments already may regulate professional speech. Volokh thus introduces us to the possibility that the...
