Yes, I've always liked this list of helpful hints. I My caliber starts with a 9. Does that count? BAH! Be gone from this place with your evil metric ammo! Come back with a .45, .460, or .50GI... Another great quote to address this subject of caliber... "I would rather someone shoot at me with ...

if it is a bar only CHLer has no business to be there armed that obvious. If he entered and found out it is just bar, better to leave pronto. That is my point. It's on you, not the owner to post a sign. I recently went to a place in Houston called SRO. It's a sports bar, but serves a lot of food. C...

Thanks for the info. So it's not likely to work out for her.
I'll pass that along to her husband (maybe point him to this thread), and I'll let HIM tell her. :)

If I were him, I'd let her go through the steps and have the state of Texas be the 'bearer of bad news'.

Where do you guys come with those explanation? :waiting: :waiting: You enter a restaurant that has a bar and most likely it is not a 51% establishment, and no such sign nor a 30.06 notice. It is legal to carry regardless if there is a bar selling booze. I do it all the time with no hesitation. I ne...

Also, isn't it on 'us' as CHL's to know? In other words, if it's a 51% location and it's not posted, we're still illegally carrying if we enter such a place and don't leave. I know this doesn't necessarily apply to your scenario since yours is the opposite, but it's always safe to assume the worst (...

My best friend's wife is interested in getting her CHL. He has had his for 2 or 3 years (I think), but she's now just getting interested. We were talking at lunch, and turns out that she has been diagnosed Bi-Polar and has spent a time or 2 in a mental health hospital over a year ago. She's consider...

Thanks again guys. I travel a bit for work, so the next Wednesday I have in town, I'll be heading to impact zone! I'm hoping that will be before October is over. Good advice regarding ego. I should have known better. I've been a driving instructor with Porsche Club and that also translates into your...

I live in Katy and shot IPSC a few times several years ago out at American as well, but then my son's schedule filled up my life (he played Katy football). Now that he is a freshman in college, I have just started shooting again, this time, IDPA out west of here at Impact Zone. You might want to go...

Awesome info guys! Thanks. I think I'll try IDPA and likely at Impact Zone near here. I was thinking I'd watch first but I might as well try it then too. What have I got to lose besides pride? :) I am not really as worried about winning or competing as much as I am about learning to shoot better and...

I've had my CHL about a year and I shoot at indoor ranges fairly often (almost weekly), but it's the same thing... shooting at a paper target from varying distances. Years ago, before getting into shooting handguns, I watched a friend of mine do a shooting competition of sorts at American Shooting C...

Have you tried American Shooting Center in George BushPark, on Westheimer Parkway? That is the closest one to Katy. I have. That is where I do my rifle shooting. I would not shoot handguns there due to the restriction on "rapid fire". I was hoping for another choice that was closer than B...

I agree with all the posters about your scenarios being a little over the top and it does sound "mall ninja-like", but... In my class we happened to cover the scenario of an armed robber pointing at a cashier while you're in the store. Ultimately, you're legal to shoot the BG and stop the ...

That bill of sale doc is great! Thanks!

I'm selling a Glock to another individual. I want to make sure I have proper documentation in case down the line I have to prove I sold it.

What will pass as proof?
BTW, the buyer is a CHL.

The manager responds, "We're not. We're just under 50%, but we post one anyway because we don't want guns in here." <--- :shock: :banghead: So I then say, so you have a sign posted that is incorrect? He says, "Yes. We don't want them in here" (Them referring to guns I guess) Eve...
