    What do you do if you have to reach for something?

    I carry a 1911 in a comp-tac kydex paddle holster, and I run into that, as well. When carrying, I'll kneel down as opposed to bending over to reach for something. If I have to reach high, I'll either use my other arm or I'll look around to see who's watching. If no one is on my gun side, I...

    Pistol Training in DFW.

    I, too, would recommend Steve Moses. www.northtexastactical.com is his website. I just finished his Tactical Carbine Course with him and Hany Mahmoud as the instructors. There were law enforcement as well as civilians in the course, and I believe EVERYBODY got something out of it. Steve...

    Gun security

    Got a car? With a trunk? I don't know how many guns you're talking about, but I know that all of mine will fit in my wife's trunk (for now...). Quick and easy is wrap 'em in a blanket and store in the trunk until they're gone. I'd only put the guns there... who cares about if they steal...

    Negotiating at gun shops

    In an earlier post I said: There are, however, stores I won't do business with because of outrageous prices. ...While there are a few stores that applies, I was thinking of the "only game in town" gun store in Killeen, TX. There are no "good deals" in that place. I've only made a couple...

    Negotiating at gun shops

    I won't haggle over the price of a new gun at a gun store. There are, however, stores I won't do business with because of outrageous prices. The only time I ever did any "haggling" over the price of a new gun was when the seller wanted to charge me an extra fee for using a credit card. Of...

    Got a little problem

    ...that's why I was advising oldfart to contact the trucker to make sure he was aware of what was happening. I didn't mention it in my earlier post, but I was talking to my stepdad about "homesteading" where you can build a fence around property for a period of time, then lay claim to it. He...

    More thoughts on the RKBA...

    Discussions on our 2A rights have been debated for decades, and it will never end. Most of the classic cliches associated with "being free" and "gun ownership" come from those wanting to be free to exercise their 2A rights getting involved in that fight. Statisticians on both sides try to...

    Got a little problem

    I would contact that truck driver and make sure he knows what's going on. If he knows about it, then life is good... but that notice *MAY* be some legal requirement before the company can "squat" the property to take it over. The owner may have time to contest it. That's fine and good, just...

    This is the HIGH ROAD isn't it????????

    In the public eye, law enforcement (in general) needs to be put "in check". It happens occasionally, and this, too, will eventually die down. In the past couple of decades, law enforcement has suffered some pretty severe "black eyes". The days of "Officer Joe, the friendly neighborhood beat...

    Training Question (edit - IPSC/IDPA competition worthwhile for training?)

    I'm actually writing an article on this very topic. Regarding the "gun games", there are some very good training values that IPSC and IDPA matches can offer up to the shooter. The issue is not whether you do or do not get any good training out of the games, the issue is "what kind"...
