Yeah, if anything he risked his livelihood (his family's livelihood) pulling a gun and shooting at someone to prevent the theft of the NCDOT truck that was issued to him. It's not a stretch to think the state would have fired him for that. And if this was about his livelihood, where is his...

My understanding is that he intervened in a carjacking of a third party in another vehicle before the criminal stole the truck that he was killed with. In any case, the truck he defended with lethal force and eventually with his own life wasn't his property and was owned by a third party. It...

Correct- the way I read their web page, the certified range has to own all of the equipment and isn't allowed to resell it. Firearms Instructor credentials from one of the following certified bodies (NRA, Military, Law Enforcement, Technical College or Private Industry ie., Sig Academy, Smith...

Does someone know of a good force or force class out there? I noticed there is a LOT more access for Simunition for civilians than there was a few years ago when I first looked into it. There are at least a dozen in Florida now. https://simunition.com/certified-range-location-florida/ Has...

Not really. As far as civil liability goes, the the cop's employer is going to be held accountable. So the department loses money, the cop gets written up, and taxpayers foot the bill.

The 9mm is a surprisingly lively caliber in a small revolver. Even in a steel J frame, it's a handful. I pocket carried one for a while and it was a lot of weight. I went back to an Airlite 357 loaded with 38 special.

Sorry, wasn't looking at your comment in context.

This is similar to Chicago's argument in its lawsuit. I don't see anything unique about Glock compared to other striker fired pistols, expect someone targeted Glock.

This is rarely addressed. Recognizing your limitations and shooting within your limitations in a defensive encounter is just as important as improving your limitations in training. If someone can't hit anything better than a man sized target at 3 yards, yeah, that could be better. But as long...

How do you do that when you're asleep? A locked door or window buys you time.

I laughed at that, but I used to have a lanyard for one of my Kel-Tecs. I could put the lanyard over my shoulder and jog with it tucked in the waistband of my jogging shorts. It stayed there really well. And if I pushed it out against the lanyard, it felt like shooting a rifle with a sling...

One of the news networks did a test of the effectiveness of concealed carry in a college campus shooting by giving a handful of college students airsoft guns. They gave them and the rest of the class large white t-shirts so the attacker wouldn't know who was carrying. When the "attacker", a...

I agree with having contingency plans on contingency plans. Maybe this makes a case for stashing guns all over the house, because she can't predict where she's going to be tied up when she allows a home invader to tie her up. Seeing as how the invader was ransacking the house for loot, he may...

Closer to where she needed it? She needed it before her attacker got control of her. My whole point was a gun inches from you does you no good if you don't know the intruder is coming into your house.

I like the Jerry Miculek grips for those. I like the smooth wood grip and they fit my hand well.

I just ordered 6 identical pairs of the same shorts I'm wearing right now. I do the same thing with long pants. Feom the variety in my closet, you'd think Ernest P. Worrell lived here.

So your position is that police should be allowed to pull you over without probable cause or articulate reasonable suspicion? That they should be able to stop anyone they want and say show me your papers, and conduct an investigation? And I should be polite when they're breaking the law? I don't...

Yes. I have put myself in the shoes of a guy whose job it is to try to find a way around the 4th amendment and stop everybody he can to investigate them for crimes. I totally understand why pulling over a cook repeatedly by the same cop sitting in the same place outside a restaurant seems...

Those are all excellent suggestions to avoid getting pulled over for a ticket. If you don't want to get pulled over for an investigatory stop, you can't be driving in the wrong place or at the wrong time, and you need to spend more money on your rolling hunk of depreciating asset. You can do...

You asked a good question. I'll be staying in a hotel and I would assume that a hotel (or your family's home) would be a temporary residence.
