Re: True TABC signage

The doors on the house were never locked and the keys were left in the car all the time. I remember Dad being furious when someone removed the keys from t...

For a place closer to the center of DFW, Great Southwest Gun Range in Main Street in Grand Prairie offers indoor rifle/pistol

Re: What do YOU call it?

My wife, Texas born, laughs when she used to read my hometown paper and the local grocery store offered a special of a hot dog and pop for $0.50! She thinks everyone in I...

Re: New to CHL: Need holster recommendations

go with the crossbreed holsters. you might have to wait a week or two but worth the comfort... I vote for the Crossbreed Supertuck as well. I've used one for about 3 years and love it.
