I carry because there is no "safe area". Criminals are armed and mobile. I am my own "first responder".

Went to an indoor range with a friend and his wife. She wants to try my wife's Sig P238. One magazine, put them all in the center at twenty feet at first try. I stuck my head around the barrier and asked "who did that?". Friend points at wife and says "She did". Oklahoma farm girl. Sweet gal -...

Agree with you, my police encounters have all been professional - except for one. Germany, autobahn, polizei points at me and motions for me to pull over. I see a group of polizei off the side of the road so pull off slowly and stop. Nice gentleman asks me to come with him. We go to a...

GI style 1911. Have four, rotate them. Borrow wife's Sig P238 when necessary.

Pulled over. Informed officer "I'm armed, right side, holstered". Officer says "leave it in the holster". Didn't even look up from his paperwork. Arizona or Nevada, forget which. Your car is queried in the state system before they even get out of the cruiser. Figure I came up clean so no worries.

Field strip, clean, lube after a range session, although it may take me a few days to get to it. A range session usually includes the EDC. The EDC also gets gets a field strip and lube about once a month. Pins and springs about a year interval.

Approx 1500 .45ACP. Approx 1300 9mm. Approx 400 .380. Approx 1800 7.62x54R. Borderline hoarding? Yeah I know I'm a piker compared to some (a lot?) of you folks out there. This, except for the rifle, is a few years shooting. The rifle ammo will be a problem for my estate executor. I figure I have...

Used to open carry on the way to and from work - 200 miles of rural Nevada. More comfortable and figured rural Nevada is an armed camp anyway. Retired a few years ago, moved to Kansas. Keep it concealed now for the most part since very seldom get out of town. I may uncover it in town while...

South central Kansas here. Some clubs, all filled up. Place called Cheney Lake has an outdoor range, open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. 25 and 100 yard ranges. Need a no-cost permit issued at the range. Haven't been there. No ranges in Hutchinson. One being constructed. I go to Treasure Chest in...

100 rounds .45ACP. Four targets. Range time 😁 Shot it all up.

3-in-1 oil (Me seeking cover....)

Never Buy Serial Number One. You Will Regret It. Trust Me 🤬

Carrying the trash out, I don't bother. It's out back and thirty seconds. Otherwise, I'm carrying - mowing the lawn, cutting up tree fall, sitting out on the porch watching the world go by. Crime doesn't sit in the low areas any more; they're just as mobile as we are. Driving I always leave...

I only have four 1911s. Should I get another one? (I am looking - encouragement accepted...)

The name of the guitar is Lucille. Took me three days to remember BB King. I plead Senior Moment.

When necessary I borrow wife's Sig P238. Bit of a nuisance with the short magazine, the extended magazine makes it enjoyable. All steel, has a little weight to it. Otherwise it's a 1911 year-round.

3 Mosin 91s, all with bayonets. Yes I have poked a hole in the ceiling 🤠 Wife was not impressed.

A quick count shows 19 1911 magazines of various manufacture. Of those 7 are Wilson Combat Model 47 7-round capacity. They're also available in 8-round capacity. When out and it's the 47 magazines, one in the 1911 and 2 loaded spares. Gives me 21 rounds. If that's not enough just make sure you...

Yup. Have an SR1911 with the extended thumb safety. Sometimes the holster will snag the safety and disengage it while holstering. I always do the disengage on draw anyway. Haven't had any normal-size safeties disengage. Galco Fletch holster.

Work site in middle of Nowhere Nevada had diamondbacks and sidewinders and a few others. You didn't kill them because they kept the vermin down. Mice & rats carried Bubonic Plague (the fleas) and Hantavirus (droppings) and probably a few other goodies I didn't know about. Snakebite usually just...
