If you have a non-Kydex holster for it, I might be interested in moving some of my free cash into your pocket.

The origin of the nachos story (from what I've read) is that it was a comment for all the newly-licensed people who ask if they should buy a CHL badge. Instead of spending the money on the badge, you should spend it on nachos. The Wally Walk and nachos just got combined into one story because they w...

I took my class at Top Gun and everything went very smoothly. I think my instructor's name was Ken (tall guy, looks sort of like Richard Petty). The class went about as well as any 10 hour class on state law can go :smile: Just listen, follow instructions, and ask questions if you have any. I rememb...

Here is one I found interesting. It was a fatal shooting details are ******** Vargas drove an SUV through a movie theater parking lot. An off-duty officer followed him because he thought Vargas drove suspiciously. He approached SUV with his gun out. The weapon, rested on the driver's side window, d...

300 rounds is about what I was planning on also. Couse I may end up bringing two guns, don't know why, just because. Reading PSC rule (5)(E)(3), I guess we cannot carry our CCW around with us loaded since we'll be using it on the firing line? http://www.psc-range.com/PSC_Range_Rules_200601.html JLa...

I've only used it for ID once. I was opening an account with a stockbroker and needed to provide two picture IDs. They didn't say anything about it.

30.06 stickers on glass

A while back, I saw my first 30.06 sign (at least outside of the CHL classroom). It had the correct text in English and Spanish, the letters were at least 1 inch high; however, it was only the letters stuck to a glass wall. I vaguely remember that not meeting the qualifications for "contrasting...

As much as I agree with the sentiment of the original post, I think the math may be a little misleading. The military death rate is 60 per 100,000 per month. I think that the Washington D.C. number is probably per year.

+1 on the thanks for organizing and running the day. It was fun meeting y'all.

Having never seen any IDPA events before, it was really nice to be able to run through a couple of scenarios without the stress of the timer and keeping score.

I'm wondering what I need to bring for the shoot. I read the rules at http://www.psc-range.com/PSC_Range_Rules_200405.html , but I want to make sure I don't forget anything. I'm used to shooting at a range where I can pick up a lot of the things I need. Anything you can think of that I don't have li...

I'd be interested in this, although I can't really commit until a week or two before the date (work always tends to have something that crops up whenever I plan to have some fun :(). For a class suggestion, I'd be interested in a basic gun maintenance class. Something along the lines of cleaning, pa...

They received my application for a new (first-time) permit on May 31st, according to the Post Office receipt. I had it in my mailbox on July 18th. So, 49 calendar days. I didn't have anything sent back to me that needed to be re-done. They were also nice and set my expiration to 2010. Since my birth...
