Re: HB 1927 on the Senate floor now

I've heard no one mention LOSING the ability to purchase a firearm using their TX LTC to bypass the NICS background check. So with passage of constitutional carry and the elimination of the LTC system we are now subject to mandatory NICS background checks on new purchases. What is there to stop CUJ ...

Re: I want to keep my guns.

I've been thinking about the all inclusive, anti-bullying, we love everybody societal change. Why didn't "they", not necessarily the victims, but members of his peer group, circle of acquaintances, generation, etc help him? I mean he was obviously troubled, an outcast, probably bullied, be...

Re: Military Discount

Military discount at Lowe's is store by store and cashier by cashier. I shop at the Lowe's that honors the discount. I've never had a problem using it at Home Depot and Calloway's. I only did 4 years, but I do work for one of those government agencies that issues a DOD id card. I also have military ...

Re: BREAKING: A military coup in Turkey has overthrown the govt

The Turkish military is more secular than Erdogan. Erdogan is to0 close to the Islamic Brotherhood and ISIS. Turkey is a buffer and used to be a stabilizing influence in the region. If the military can succeed, it would be a good thing. If they fail, Turkey will become a full-blown sharia state. I h...

Re: Ted Cruz A Texas

I am for any R, real or imaginary, against Hillary. Our country is halfway down the slippery slope. If Hillary wins our country is gone. I am willing to blow up the republican party and possibly the country in the process as I feel I have nothing to lose. I don't think anything Trump could do will b...

Re: 30.06 and 30.07 signs at gas stations

I've wondered about gas stations as well. If I pay at the pump totally unaware of what is posted on the building, what happens when the CC receipt fails to print? I cannot legally go in the building to get the receipt. I cannot see hitting the help button and asking for my receipt to be brought to m...

Re: Im going to face flame and compare Trump to Patton

:iagree: There is enough discontent in both parties that a straight talking, non-PC candidate has a serious chance. I do not want Trump to run as an independent, but if the RNC takes the nomination from him there will be a revolt. The only thing better than seeing the RNC power elites neutered will ...

FYI. If your member number has leading 0s you may not be able to access the site. After the third transfer ended at NRA HQ, they discovered it was an IT problem. Isn't it always lol.

Re: Anbody else recieve renewal letter today?

Only send additional info if it's requested on the checklist. The turnaround times are great! I exercised my LTC at the polls last night. The election judge was a little surprised that it did not say CHL.

Re: Anbody else recieve renewal letter today?

I got my renewal notice 10/2 for my CHL that expires 3/16. I filed my renewal online 10/5. I got around to emailing a copy of my DD214 on 10/16. LTC received 10/31!

Re: Learned something today.

Yes, I got the Navy plates last year. DD214. Application. Picked them up in person in Lewisville. It was painless. They have a version for honorably discharged and one without the words honorably discharged. I personally like the plain ones without honorable discharge. Go Navy!

Re: air rifle in the city

I guess I'm late to the party regarding pellet gun laws, but after I evicted a cantankerous squirrel from our roof I considered getting a pellet gun. I found some likely candidates, then it occurred to me to check local ordinances. My how times have changed. To shoot a Daisy Red Ryder BB gun require...
