    Do you have a right to protect yourself and own a gun? Yes. Does He have the right to dictate what will happen under his roof? Yes. Is there something you can do in regards to either of those questions? Yes. Financially viable? Military is always looking for individuals willing...

    When do we use the 2nd Amendment

    Having a retention holstered gun doesn't mean I use the gun everyday. Likewise, having the retained right of the 2nd amendment doesn't mean I use it everyday. That said, I feel its important to stress the idea that we have the optioned right to the 2nd amendment, and the actual use of it...

    Carrying +1

    With the average gun fight lasting 3 seconds start to finish... Takes you a 1/2 second just to recognize a threat and decide to do something about it. Another full second to draw from a concealed position. That's 50% of your time wasted on physical necessities of human interaction not...

    Prohibited weapons

    Navyretired 1, I don't mean to criticize you. (take it as an English lesson) But having been in the military yourself. You should know the difference between rates and ranks and the respect that accompanies them. Police are Officer's. Sheriff's personnel are Deputies. There is only one...

    Self Defense Shooting Situation

    AOK Am I to believe by this, the robber was in fact shot? What was the extent of that effect? Did this lead to a hospital report, and subsequent arrest?

    Reload...Do you carry one? Where ?

    WebbJ Funny, I was thinking the exact opposite. It seemed to me that civilians carry reloads, where as LEO's do not. In my personal experience based on what I do, and what my friends do. Carrying extra stuff all day for 8 hours, the last thing you want to do is carry anything you don't...

    Loose fitting vests...

    Vest... 'Knife pocket' carpenters jeans... Yup, he's carrying concealed. Might as well put on a uniform or wear a CCW T-shirt. I think of Michael Baine from BEST DEFENSE Television. Either way, its probably a really good idea, but I can't do it. I'd screw it up and end up looking...

    For What Are You Preparing?

    WEBB, and TOM I'm sorry I didn't clarify, I apologize... What I was referring to NOT the number of victims to crimes, but the odds of the armed citizen firing a gun to stop a crime. I imagine if you were to look at the number of Texans who carry, and the actual number of them who use a gun...

    Roving Meat "salesmen"

    JamisJockey Correct. I was one of the first houses in a new neighborhood, with a new HOA. Back then it was great (what it should be) i.e. No bright pink houses, no car on blocks in your grass etc. Fast forward 10 years, and with the market = good neighbors leaving, and some bad crowds move...

    Calling all Texans! Write Dan Patrick

    Davidsdivad Not all Peace Officers are pro-CHL, but from my experience it seems that Troopers are properly educated with the numbers, and they rarely seem to have a problem with CHL's to the degree they have a policy not to disarm without a really good reason. I've also heard of warnings...

    Roving Meat "salesmen"

    Cosmoline You think governments' power is scary, an HOA is insane what they can do. Which is why I'm getting out as soon as I can. Construct my own range, build my own shop. And as far as meat goes, I plan on slaughtering my own cows, so I won't need the meat truck guy, or the supermarket...

    Roving Meat "salesmen"

    I've been hit up by: The meat man The stereo van guy And one that was not mentioned... The "I'll fix that dent in your driveway for cash" guy (a la the caked-bondo method) :rolleyes: Solicitor signs seem like a good idea, but it doesn't help when its out by the sidewalk and they just walk...

    For What Are You Preparing?

    I don't envision a state or country wide pandemic actually happening. For that matter, I realize a shooting is a slim chance. A) I pay attention and B) the sheer odds. I realize I am much more likely to be stuck by lighting or eaten by sharks than I am to actually need a bug out setup or need...

    What gun(s) are you currently hiding from the wife/gf?

    I'm in the "share" crowd Matter O fact she's got one of my guns at her apartment. I tell her, "git yer own". She's desperate for anything with pink grips. :rolleyes: I got lucky. We talked several times before our first date but never mentioned what I did (at the time) for a living...

    youtube gun reviews

    NutnFancy does a great job, when you take into account he's doing it because its fun to him and he enjoys it. I think his views are right on. If I had to complain, I just wish he would work on making things more short and concise. He can be long-winded!

    Need Help Staying Alert

    I'm only yellow around the people that can kill me. Likewise I only carry my gun on the day I'm going to be in a gunfight. I think the disparity here stems from one camp of folks that do not go red often, and those who by virtue of job or environment are in red for long periods of time...

    The Rest of Your Guns/Ammo When SHTF

    Really hard to say with any accuracy, as each scenario would be different. Unless you're specific to the incident its a matter of firepower vs mobility. A vehicle escape would generally include everything. On foot, well its just what you can carry.

    Need Help Staying Alert

    To those who shun the all-yellow possibility... Being yellow is simply being alert and aware. It is not low-crawling the hedges with face paint, boone hat, and a thigh holster while teeth-clenching a K-Bar. Perspective!

    Magazines and clips...

    Tire = black rubber part Rim = shiny metal part Wheel = tire & rim together Be that as it may, like firearms vernacular If someone says my 'wheel is flat', or even 'my rim is flat', I generally know its usually a tire that's actually flat. Because I know what they're trying to convey. But...
