Ok. I went to the local DPS office to grab one of the CHL laws and statutes handbooks. I checked the door, no 30.06, so I didn't disarm. I had just gotten off duty in the ER of a non-posted hospital and was carrying a Kel-Tec P3AT in the thigh pocket of my scrubs. There's an outer door then a very s...

I haven't been this excited since I saw they made a jar of peanut butter with grape jelly already swirled in! I finally don't have to lock up the gun in the back of the car when I'm visiting the wife's family in Nebraska! I used to stop just inside the Nebraska/Kansas border and lock up the carry gu...

Well, my brother's birthday has come around again, and I'm trying to find something really cool for him. He's gotten into long range shooting, well, just starting to actually. He's got a Remington 700 LTR .308 with 20" barrel, and topped it with the Leupold Mark 4 4.5-20x50 in Leupold Mark 4 ri...

I know for a fact that Odessa PD carries full auto surplus M16 A1's in the trunks of their patrol cars. My brother and a good friend showed them to me when they first got them. They are A1 all the way to the pencil barrel, 3 prong flash hider, and triangular handguards. SWAT carries an assortment of...

If you're concerned about fit in a holster, look at the LaserMax that replaced the guide rod. You wouldn't have any fitment problems at all with it, and if I remember right, they're not priced too much differently.

I agree. I had to be re fingerprinted for my nursing license. They require the FAST method now. The print quality that it provides is impressive, and it's alot easier than the old ink method for you and for the fingerprinter. I'll do that for my CHL renewal when it comes up also.

I too was on the search for the Holy Grail of holsters. I still haven't found it. But the closest I've come is the Comp-Tac C.T.A.C. I carry a Kimber Ultra Covert II in it almost daily. At work it's usually kakhis and polo or dress shirts, and at home it's jeans, denim shorts, or cargo shorts usuall...

Thanks. What about equipment? I've got the following. May post pics if I have a chance tonight. Kimber Raptor, Blackhawk Serpa holster, Comp-Tac single mag pouch or Uncle Mikes double mag pouch. The rules suggested 3 magazines with at least 10 round capacity or equivalent. I'm considering ordering t...

I'm going to be competing in my first shooting competition of any kind this July. I've read the rules and rules from several other 3 gun competitions to get an idea of specifics. I'll be watching a match first before I shoot. I just thought I'd see if there's anything you guys could suggest or let m...

Thanks for the compliments! The grips are from VZ Grips. They make grips for 1911's and Hi Powers mostly. You've probably seen their grips on a few customs; Nighthawks, Volkmann's, and Heinie's to name a few. I first saw them on a custom shop Springfield on the cover of "Guns" and fell in ...

These are VZ Grips Alien's in green canvas micarta. What do you guys think? I like them on the Raptor.

Ah, I see the clip, but can't watch it right now. I didn't get to see it last night, I just heard shortly after the speech that he had made such a comment. I wonder if the Michelle bare arms thing is what Ann Coulter was refering to? I don't like the guy, but really, I guess I have to admit, he was ...

What was the snide, innapropriate comment Obama made last night? Actually, that question's not accurate. In the part of the speech I saw, he made too many snide, inappropriate comments to count. But I digress... After the dinner and speech, I was watching Fox News. I believe it was Ann Coulter they ...

What's the difference between the 500 and 590? I'm just curious. I already have a Winchester 1300 that I've had for several years, so I'm not in the market. I just don't know much about Mossberg's. I have however heard, that they're pretty decent and apparently just passed some pretty serious milita...

I used the search and found this thread. Good info. We're taking the kiddo's to Sea World over Father's Day weekend. Thanks for the replies to JPAT, it helped me out too. Also, the kids on the shoulders thing is a good point. I'll be sure to wear a tuckable holster and keep the shirt tucked in. That...
