Re: TX: Two deputies have been murdered in Central Texas

My hometown. Eden. Really, not a bad town. People there are usually friendly.
They'll have to hold trial in a distant county, as most there would gladly dispose of the miscreant for free.

Re: DOJ to change definition of a firearm

"commonsense'....
Their line of thinking shows a complete lack of ANY common sense. Doing what they propose would lead to calling a spring a firearm.
My junk box of parts from when I worked as a mechanic would be considered 'constructive possession".

Their stupid overflows.

Re: HB 1927 on the Senate floor now

Seems to me that the opposition's arguments can be summed up as the same old 'blood in the treets, for the children, cats & dogs living together" argument that was used when CCL was passed, when campus carry was passed and when open carry was passed. It will have the same results again too ...

Re: Icom LMR - MDC 1200 programming help?

No problem. Glad to help. I might mention that the ID that you put in is numeric only.
There is a provision for aliases where you can enter a name that goes with the ID though. If you do that the name will show, not the ID number.

That would be Gutierrez. Truth is, he nor no one else truly knows how many people are gun owners in Texas, but I'll bet its WAY more than 3.5%.

Re: HB 1927 on the Senate floor now

Been watching intermittently. Some of the 'questions' being asked make it more than obvious that they just don't get it. They are blinded by agenda, oblivious to truth.

MDC1200... Can do a lot. What exactly are you looking to accomplish? ID the radio? Thats easy. Under MDC GENERAL enter the ID number you want to assign. You can assign up to 5 IDs. Under MDC PTTID enter the characteristics yo want each to have. ID at key down? Id at key up? Both? Delays...I suggest ...

Re: Off The Beaten Dripping Springs, TX

Born and raised there. Went back a few years ago for a visit and get-together. Definitely not what it was. Property I grew up running around on is now all chopped up into gated sub-divisions and 'ranchettes'. The one saving grace that I saw was the old domino hall. Spent many hours there with my Gra...

Re: What Would Be The BEST 30-30 Lever Rifle

Joining in a bit late to this, but as to what is "best" is relative. Just as in vehicles. There use to be huge gaps in quality and durability. Manufacturing has pretty well evened the playing field. Find one you like, shoulders well, etc. and go forth and enjoy. Personally, I'm partial to ...

Re: Priorities for 2019 legislative session

"The bill I have written 1) creates unlicensed-carry; 2) moves all of TPC §46.035 to §46.03; and 3) exempts LTC's from §46.03. The benefit of this approach is that it creates so-called constitutional carry while preserving a big incentive to get an LTC. The Legislature does not like unlicensed...

Re: Someone push me...

Charles, I guess one day I'll have to upgrade to Extra. Just always told myself I wasn't going to do it till I could do the 20 WPM, even though its not required anymore.
