Re: Ranges in San Antonio?

Bexar Community Range is my range of choice. If you like to shoot often you can buy a membership for $60.00/year and you get to shoot for $4.00 per visit instead of $10.00. I only shoot hanguns there so I don't know the prices on trap of skeet.

Re: S&W lightweight??????????

A 642 is a fine pocket gun. Yes, if you shoot a box or two, you get a sore hand for a bit. I recently shot an IDPA match in San Antonio with mine for grins. It is not a fast reloaded and the distance shots need some work but for close to moderate ranges, it is more than accurate. Were you shooting ...

Re: Need suggestions for deep cover j-frame

Oh, and like most of you, I've tried the pager-pal type holster, and after a few weeks, is in the holster box. What was it about the pager-pal type holster that didn't work for you? The problem with mine was the holster allowed the small J-Frame to slide to deep, so the barrel hung out the bottom a...

My wife is a Kindergarten teacher so I have to be mindful of the times I go up to the school. Also, it is hilarous to be at the grocery store and have the little Kindergarten children recognize her and all but flip out that their teacher is shopping at the store.... It's like hanging out with a movi...

dpatterson,

I'm glad to help. I spoke to the vendor and he does all the work himself. He can even do some custom stuff if you know what you need. I plan to get one if I start traveling in my truck again.

They pry the lock off and get in easily..My mom had someone actually remove the lock from the door (there was only one on the drivers side.) She used the keyfob and the number ...

Theater parking lots are notorious for vehicle burglary. I guess they figure you'll be tied up for awhile. I see a lot of vandalism and burglary claims in our shop that happen at a theater. Make sure you have some kind of lock on your pickup tail gates. We used to replace a lot of stolen tailgates a...

I also purchased the gun safe mentioned in this thread at Sportsman's Warehouse in San Antonio for just under $20.00.

Hope this helps.
