    manly breakfast (includes 1911)

    Not enough bacon? Maybe. Not enough napkins? Definitely. Edit: That settles it, after looking through this post, I'm having breakfast for dinner tonight.

    Park service = LEOs?

    Thank you, all. @Rich636: Yep! So you and I and my wife make 3. With only 3 armed lunatics running around, it must be a safe town, right?:rolleyes:

    Park service = LEOs?

    Thanks for the opinions. To clarify slightly, my concern is not about when to inform an LEO, but for whether or not one should consider park rangers to be LEOs. Yes, there surely is a hierarchy in the park service and every employee isn't an LEO, but I can see how a ranger could be. Does...

    Park service = LEOs?

    Given that there is a "Duty to Inform" law here in NC, if I am in Great Smokey Mountains National Park (as an example), do I have to notify a park ranger that I am legally carrying if I come into contact with him/her? That is, are they considered law enforcement officers?

    Very unsafe 1911 usage! (R/C helicopter)

    Angular momentum keeps the recoil from flipping the helicopter - the same that keeps bicycles upright and frisbees level. Try holding a bicycle wheel by the axle while it's spinning and turn it. The faster it spins, the more it resists.

    Toys for Tots

    Even toy guns are becoming taboo now in the hands of children. I was going through my email at work today and there was an email about a Toys for Tots collection this week. It got me thinking that maybe people would like to join me in buying a bunch of toy guns - cap guns, squirt guns, whatever...

    My brother is a mall ninja

    That's funny, I think my dad is on his way to becoming a mall ninja in the sense that he believes and repeats BS stories he hears from idiots he talks to at gunshops. It's funny because I got my parents interested in guns this past spring and my dad dove in head first. Technically, I'm still a...

    Woman Harassed for Open Carry

    Please don't take this as an endorsement of soccer over hockey, but here goes: Q: What's the difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull? A: Lipstick. Q: What's the difference between a soccer mom and a pitbull? A: lipstick and a gun.

    Woman Harassed for Open Carry

    There's got to be a joke in here somewhere about the difference between soccer moms and pitbulls (lipstick, and open carry?) - I just can't put my finger on it. Any ideas?

    Bet no one's asked this before.

    Sharpie then take it home and go over it yourself with a woodburner THEN clear coat it.

    School shooting in Finland

    What is it with school shooters and Walther P22's? Isn't that (in part) what the VaTech a-hole used?

    Recommendations for the proud new concealed carrier?

    That's funny. I totally shoot bad guys on TV while dry firing. Never good guys, of course. ;)

    Bravado aside, I have to admit that your eagle holster is totally awesome, wyocarp. Maybe it's weird, but when I think of open carry I never picture a shoulder holster - I usually picture Han Solo with a laser blaster on the low-slung belt.

    Recommendations for the proud new concealed carrier?

    What a coincidence! I'm actually planning on carrying two Deasert Eagles in a shoulder holster. Mine shoulder holster has a bullseye on the back part, though. :D I'm actually planning on making my HK P7 my regular carry gun. I love that thing. Now if only I could carry more regularly! I'm in...

    Recommendations for the proud new concealed carrier?

    I know the laws. What I was trying to say is that I think it's unreasonable to expect anyone to wait until they are perfectly trained to begin carrying (That reminds me of the much-maligned D. Rumsfeld quote about going to war with the army you have...:D). And besides, I really was looking for...

    @SCKimberfan LOL! Now I get it. I didn't realize it was such a well-planned sequence. Maybe I'll pick out a nice action video game for my 360 if I don't find any action movie DVDs that I don't already own. I'm liking the steak part, too, because hey, carrying for the first time is something...

    Trisha, I really like the triple mirror idea! That's something simple I had not considered. My wife will appreciate it, too, for obvious reasons.

    Recommendations for the proud new concealed carrier?

    We picked them up this morning. It's ironic, in light of the discussion above, that when the secretary at the sheriff's office handed us our permits, she said "have fun" with great sincerity. I gave her kindof a funny look and said something like "Uhh... thanks." At least she didn't say...
