Re: And people wonder why I carry?
For me, it's not so much whether I would shoot her in this exact scenario, but that we cannot control these events and when they happen and who knows how far this could have gone. Maybe I could fight her off and keep my kid safe and get the heck out of there which would be great. But what if I was o...

And people wonder why I carry?
http://kxan.com/2016/10/17/tourist-attacked-with-daughter-on-congress-avenue-bridge/ This could have gone all kinds of wrong. This guy is lucky to get away and even luckier his daughter wasn't harmed. At the least he should have been on the line with 911 when he realized she was after them. I know i...

Re: Worst LTC Student?
Hi everybody, I am an instructor in the Dallas area, teaching a few years. And I totally agree with having basic pistol instruction before taking my class. And if and when they passed the course, if I'm not comfortable with their skill level, I schedule a 3 hour session (and charge them) before I g...

*SOLD* WTS Ruger LCR 38spl+P
Sold. Thanks, folks!
I woke up with an itch for a different rifle for the field, so would like to fund new purchase with this LCR.
Basic LCR, great shape. I can email pics if you are interested.
$300
FTF, Georgetown area. I may be interested in trades for a decent deer rifle, 30-06 or 243.

Re: Whataburger tonight
I was once on an extended assignment for work, so was given rental vehicle since I didn't want to tie up a pool car for 3 months. I received a brand new Ford Explorer instead of the typical compacts we had in the pool. About one month into this assignment, I basically got to know the SUV as if it wa...

Re: LTC holder shoots bread thief
This is an interesting case. Good shoot or bad shoot? Did they find anything in the thief's pocket? Not sure what LEO will do with this one. They can always just turn it over to the Lubbock D.A. who can take a look at it and decide whether to present to grand jury. If the bread truck driver is unlu...

Re: Motor homes
Depending on the whistles and bells, all the classes overlap when it comes to cost. We're considering upgrading to a Class A within the next few years. The only thing I'm certain of is that I want a diesel pusher from a performance perspective, and in the event we decide to tow a small vehicle. The ...

Re: Aggie Bonfire Tragedy - In an Instant Buried by Bonfire
I DVR'd Burning Desire a week ago. Finally got up the nerve to watch it Sunday morning. I held on until The Last Corps Trip during the credits then broke down. Still gets to me whenever the subject comes up.

Re: Shots fired at BLM protest in Dallas
Dallas Area Rapid Tranist (DART) has confirmed that four of their officers have been shot and one has died per FOX4 newscast. Just keeps getting worse. Yes, there's some cops out there that shouldn't be, but this type of reaction does no one any good. And all the while, good cops rushing INTO the f...

Re: Chest Holster Legal For Open Carry?
Calling the Kenai a chest holster would be like calling a traditional shoulder holster an "arm pit holster". I don't see why the Kenai wouldn't be legal. Both rigs are mainly supported by a shoulder strap, just as a belt holster is supported by a waist "belt" strap.

Re: Any problems with this picture?
Yep, they are actors dressed in costume just off the set. I suspected most would be so focused on the gun, finger and cute girl they wouldn't notice the other stuff. Well done. Well, I'm not going to say I didn't notice those things first - and maybe not in that order, but it was worth a little clo...
