Re: TX: terrorism strikes Austin's 6th street 3 dead 14 wounded

I heard about this Sunday. Pretty crazy. And this is exactly why I tend to avoid these crowded places. Especially late at night.

Re: FBI Ballistics - why FBI now prefers 9mm

I watched this recently and it was very educational and maybe not so strangely, mimicked my own journey. My first carry gun was a 1911 in .45 ACP. Later I moved to a Glock in .40 S&W and then a 9mm. The move to 9mm for me was mainly due to economics because I was shooting more, it was cheaper to ...

Re: Glock 26X


Not off topic here, but I have been carrying a Glock 43X with the Shield S-15 magazines. I finally added a Holsoun and a Streamlight in a Safariland ALS holster. Love it and couldn’t be more happy and safe.

Very sad. You can't expect to have a large, non supervised group of young people, and not have something go wrong.

Re: Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp Holster?


Yes, I got a $25 Mastercard and a $50 Visa card as Christmas presents. I asked the lady working the table I was purchasing from if they were okay to use in addition to my normal debit card. She said "sure." It worked fine.

OK that makes sense. Did you bring the gift cards thinking you ...

Re: Bodyguard 2.0 Carry Comp Holster?

You used gift cards for a gun purchase at a gun show?

I've heard a lot of good things about the new Bodyguard 2.0. Not sure if a comp is really needed for a .380 though. For holster recommendations, JM Custom Kydex has been my go to for a few years now. Think I have a discount code I can share if ...

Re: Glock 26X

Sounds like a mini Glock 45? With a bigger grIp and shorter slide? I like the 45 and this sounds like a smaller version of it. I watched the video a while back but don't remember, did they add a rail to this as well?

Re: TX:The mean streets of Houston- Dallas hold my beer

Somewhat related but I remember watching the movie Texas Killing Fields a few years back regarding this very thing. Pretty good movie from what I remember and I see it's streaming for free on a few platforms.

Re: GA: No place but Georgia: carjacking victim arrested after shooting carjacker at 3am

I think this is mislabeled as a carjacking but in either case, know the laws of your state and know ahead of time if the risk is worth the consequences.

Wonder if those are numbers are unique visitors or does it just count who entered daily regardless if they went once or every day?


I'm betting daily numbers regardless if they had visited previously this year. I can't think of how they would track unique visitors without some sort of badge or ...

Re: All Glocks Discontinued!

Not worried about this at all. And totally get the move because of Cali banning Glocks and the threat/ease of switches. I'm wondering if this was coming out at SHOT show and just got speed up.

Re: In today's times............

No change for me. I've been carrying a full size Glock 17 with a spare magazine, POM OC, one of my pocket knives, and depending on where I am going or the time of day, a flashlight. The only time this changes is when I go to the gym and switch to something more compact and light to fit what I am ...
