Re: Great job Mr Cotton 740 am radio

Great job Charles. I am glad you are on our side. I have said this over and over but it is worth mentioning again. One of these folks is going to get hurt going into businesses with a rifle or shotgun slung over their shoulder. My wife and daughter own a business with a storefront and have some cas...

Re: My life could have changed in a second

Always carry a big dog to a gunfight. You got that. He is huge and he does turn ham bones to powder but I really can't see him hurting anyone. I know, famous last words. He is a Newfoundland, I can see him backing up and demanding his bottom being scratched then he will sit down in their lap and br...

Re: My life could have changed in a second

WOW! Just for the sake of discussion. Why does the law require that we have to claim fear? Must we walk around afraid? Is it so difficult as a society to admit that some things that people want to do to others requires a particular response, without fear, remorse or hesitation. I pray that in the f...

Re: My life could have changed in a second

WOW! Thanks for all of the votes of confidence. I hope I didn't mislead anyone, please don't think me more noble than I am. I just wanted the noise to go away. I guess after so many years of being in charge and stuff and putting myself in the middle of whatever is in front of me. I sometimes forget ...

My life could have changed in a second

Saturday night I was winding down my day and taking the dogs out for their last lap around the yard. I open the door and from across the street I hear screaming and crying. The park is over there and the dark side of the street but I can see a guy beating up a woman, a barely walking toddler is stum...

....when your in Houston for the CHL instructor's conference. You are leaving town so you stop by McDonald's for a quick bite. On the way out the door to mount the Harley you start trying to find the keys. Realizing they are in your front pocket, you pull out the Ruger LCP and pocket holster and la...

Re: You know you're very comfortable carrying when...

End of the day, feet up on the corner of the desk, keyboard in lap, glass of wine at hand, checking posts on TexasCHLforum.com. 9 Y.O. grand daughter comes over to hug me good night. But she has the forethought to pat me down so she doesn't get a tooth knocked out. I often wear a N.A.A. Black Widow ...

Re: Opinions/comments on parking lot guy approching me?

Look at this another way. Depending on what the person said, you could have been charged with a lot more then intentionally failing to conceal as I read in the thread. Imagine if this guy or a witness called 911. He would say he was walking in the parking lot and you assaulted him and threatened hi...

Re: knockout game

I guess I'm still looking for a definitive answer on the moment that you can drop the hammer. Do you have to get hit or hope that there is a video camera somewhere near by that will show him swinging as you drill him or. . . The other day I was in an area where I could use the surrounding windows to...

Re: knockout game

At what point do you get to engage the attacker? When you hear the footsteps speed up behind you? When his arm is cocked back and loaded. You better get it right the first time or you may not get a second chance. Do you have to wait till he strikes you? You better have this figured out before you ar...

Re: Carry while at home

"On a side note, canning of the weapon works well too but takes longer to open."

What is the shelf life once canned? Do you put a "Born on" date or a "Best if used by" date?
