    Should You Draw ONLY IF your going to fire?

    Possibly in some states but not here. As the Sheriff said a couple years ago when I had a little problem. When you are finished with them give us a call and we will come out and get what's left. Or another time when a POS threatened to kill my wife and I told the Sheriff,(a different...

    Should You Draw ONLY IF your going to fire?

    If the situation is to that point, chances are they will be dead before they draw and get off the first shot. One drill I do with people I teach to shoot is, they are in their home and I am the bad guy. Pointed finger and "bang" is our gun. I tell them, when you see me, do whatever you...

    Should You Draw ONLY IF your going to fire?

    If someone breaks into my house they are shot. If for some unlikely reason I do not shoot them, they had better buy a Lottery ticket because it is their lucky day.

    Concealed Carry Permit Hassles (or not?) based on State

    Yes, we had three new people in the class. Only difference was they had to get their picture and prints. You get a 'free" renewal, I think, on the 3rd or 4th renewal. I had taken my paperwork only renewal the last time, so I had to do the class and shooting this time and it's good to 2019.

    Concealed Carry Permit Hassles (or not?) based on State

    When I first got my license (I think it was about 1994?) I was really against the cost and the two days it took to do something I believe is our right to do. Since then I've changed my mind somewhat. Some of the people carrying guns is frightening. At my last renewal two people loaded the...

    Concealed Carry Permit Hassles (or not?) based on State

    Recently renewed mine for the 5th time. Some changes are, 6 hours total time for class and shooting. Class and written test is cut way down. They use your old picture and prints they already have on file (if you are renewing). I got my new license in less than a month.

    Should You Draw ONLY IF your going to fire?

    If I draw I am "prepared" to fire. Whether I fire or not may depend on what happens in the next second or two. A simple explanation. Right now it's dark. I have a couple out buildings and a barn, which are up to 35 yards from the house. Texas law is such that deadly force can be used to...

    What's Your Pick for POCKET CARRY??

    I have one. Interesting little gun. Reliable, but kicks BAD. I haven't carried it for a good while. Way more accurate than it should be. Standing, two hands, slow fire, 52 yards. All shots hit the 18 inch silhouette but two bullets clipped the bottom of the target because I was...

    What's Your Pick for POCKET CARRY??

    For a good while I pocket carried a 32 Kel Tec. When the P3AT Kel Tec came out I carried that for some time. Still have them. When the Ruger LCP came out I picket carried it until I bought the Ruger LC9. The LC9 proved so accurate and reliable, and is 9mm, I carried it when I could. If...

    CCL/CCW Holder who actually carry.

    Funny story. My friend, his wife and two oldest boys have their CHL. Last year the wife and her three boys were in their Jeep. The second oldest boy was driving. They were pulled over for speeding. The boy gave the Officer his Driver's License and CHL and said I have a gun on me...

    CCL/CCW Holder who actually carry.

    I can't think of anyone I know with a CHL that doesn't always carry. But then, most everyone I associate with are "gun people".

    Something I am overlooking?

    The Glocks tend to be right accurate. But then, most other decent guns are accurate to. (don' know why I wrote XDX instead of XDS :) )

    Compare Glock 42 to XD

    I bought the 45 XDS............just because. I didn't think I was going to like it much. I have the Nano, 9mm and 40 S&W Shield and Ruger LC9 and a couple others. I was surprised that I liked the XDS so much I bought a second one.

    Something I am overlooking?

    A friend gave me my first two Glocks. The first a G17. Can't think of a thing I liked about it. What a brick. (that's actually what my friend calls his Glocks, "Bricks". :) I gave it back. The friend later gave me a G26. I really tried to like the gun since I returned the first one. I...

    TX gun laws? and things I'm missing

    Maybe even not that long. My local gun store is two miles away. Being retired I spend a lot of time there. Having a CHL there's no NICS check when I buy a gun. If I know the gun I want, I can leave the house with a fresh cup of Coffee. Buy a gun and be driving home while still...

    Beretta Tomcat

    I bought one a year ago. I sold it to a friend. I've been looking for another one ever since. I heard Beretta stopped making them.

    Ruger LCP c ss engraved slide

    The gun was sold shortly after it arrived at the store. I have two black LCP but I was thinking of buying the stainless one. It looks good.

    Compare Glock 42 to XD

    I have two 45 XDS and a G42. Comparing them is almost comparing Apples and Oranges. The XDS is almost a half inch longer and about a quarter inch higher The XDS is a lot heavier and a lot wider then the light weight G42. For me, the XDS is way too big and heavy for pocket carry. I've...

    Saw my first Glock 42 today

    I friend shot mine a few minutes ago. Like me, he is not a big Glock fan but he likes the G42. He was impressed with the small size, light weight and accuracy. I have a second one on order. Today I received 300 Hornady XTP bullets to load up some slightly hotter than factory loads for...

    Grips by Recover Tactical for 1911

    I've drilled holes in guns to mount rails for lasers and laser/lights, to increase their usefulness at night, but there won't be any holes drilled in my 1911 pistols.
