    Children no interest in shooting?

    Make it fun. Balloon targets on a target board. If shes likes art, have her hand paint some targets. Buy her the supplies (that shes gets to keep out of the deal) to make them and then give her a challenge with a reward. Hit the bullseye at x distance with 10 rounds and you'll buy her that...

    Sunglasses that double as eye protection recommendations

    I have a pair of Oakley XX's that work great. They fit close to the eyes and wrap around. I recently replaced the lenses with new ones from a company called walleva. I've got a lot of mileage out of this pair so far.

    M&p shield carry & holster questions

    I love my M&P shield. Just the right size and easy to carry I usually carry IWB between 3 and 4 o'clock. I use an Alien Gear holster and it's pretty comfy. At $30 they are a steal. Similar to crossbreed holsters. http://aliengearholsters.com/index.php/

    Anything new in shower stall mount holsters?

    Id say during a shower, you are at one of your least situationally aware household moments. Water rushing over your ears, noise from fans and shower heads, soapy face and so on. A family member of mine rinsed off, turned off the shower, pulled back the curtain and was staring trough her open...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    You're right. I'm basing my opinion on Nevada law from a few years back.

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    Here is the rest of the Arkansas code. (B) However, the initial aggressor's use of physical force upon another person is justifiable if: (i) The initial aggressor in good faith withdraws from the encounter and effectively communicates to the other person his or her purpose to withdraw from...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    You have the right to defend yourself if someone else elevates the conflict to lethal force. I am not at all saying I punch him, he punches me, I shoot him. I'm saying I punch him, he punches me, I punch again, he pulls knife and lunges, I shoot him. You don't lose your right to defend...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    I did. This was from a lawyer in a 2 day CCW course. The example he used was a fist fight, you fall down, guy jumps on you hits you, grabs a nearby brick and lifts it to smash your head. You're justified to shoot to save your life even if you punched or pushed the guy first. You'll be...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    I agree. I can easily see a normal fistfight leading to a knockout which is then followed by lethal force against you while you are passed out. Should you be able to use firearms to defend yourself against an attacker when you think you may suffer additional harm? That's a tough one. I'm not...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    And to add, it can be justifiable to shoot an unarmed attacker in a fist fight if the attacker pins you to the ground and starts smashing your head or kicking you in the head etc. In some situations, fists and feet become lethal weapons and you are justified in using lethal force to protect...

    Husband And Wife Arrested After Pulling A Gun In Road Rage Fight

    "You can't start a fight then claim self defense" Yes you can. You never lose your right to self defense even in a fight you start. I start arguing and shove a guy, he pulls out a knife and lunges at me, I shoot him. Justified shooting. You don't have to lay down your life because you...

    First date and bringing up your hobby

    You set the standard for her to follow. Don't worry about what she thinks, just do what you do normally. She'll see there isn't a problem with guns over time. If she is anti gun it's just societal brainwashing. You can undo that by showing her how to live with firearms.

    One of my family members had a home invasion when she was in the shower. It happens.

    I had to use my gun in self defense for first time

    Preparedness is often mistaken for paranoia. If I was paranoid I wouldn't be able to function and I wouldnt be able to live my life. Hahaha, and now you know, I am not vulnerable in the shower either. It's within arms reach there as well. Like a Boy Scout, always prepared.

    I had to use my gun in self defense for first time

    Prepare yourself, the replies are coming. Yes, on the couch, in the bathroom, playing with the kids , on the computer. I carry everywhere I am permitted to do so. If I knew when the time was that I would need a gun, I would only carry then. My gun is a part of my life. Carrying everywhere...

    My Child and my uncle's unsafe gun storage

    Thanks for sharing that. I'm going to use that when I teach others about firearm safety. It sums up the danger quite well.

    My Child and my uncle's unsafe gun storage

    In some states it is illegal to allow kids under a certain age to have access to firearms. In other states, kids own their own shotguns and go shoot squirrels and birds after school. It comes down to parenting and the maturity of the children. I know my kids can handle it, but the state I...

    Senate negotiations on background check have stalled

    I don't think we should focus on how to keep deranged people from getting guns, but should instead focus on how to protect each other from deranged people. How many normal people can turn deranged if pushed or overstressed? A deranged person just needs 1 burglary to become armed. One visit to...

    Do movies encourage gun sales?

    I dunno. I think Obama has to be one of the best firearms salesman of all time. We should consider getting an award for him.
