Re: State Fair of Texas 2025

Unrelated but when I did go to the Fair, I always took the DART rail as I hated the parking around there, it was cheaper, and it was just convenient as it drops you off in front of the Fair grounds. I refuse to go to a lot of places unarmed, especially events like this where predators are looking ...

Re: Being a gun owner in New York

I don't care to put stickers on any of my vehicles no matter what message it conveys. But pro 2A stickers just invite this sort of harassment along with theft.

Re: Personal Body Camera

Eh... Not LEO so haven't really felt a need for it. I probably should have one in whatever vehicle I'm driving in but hadn't felt the need for that either. The few times I've needed one on my person is because I'm doing some kind of activity that I want to record and I just use my GoPro. Sorry I'm ...

Re: State Fair of Texas 2025


Two years later, still no one can determine if the shooter had an LTC. Some crack investigative reporting. Seems like that would have come out during the trial.

I'm 99.9% sure he didn't.


I'm sure he didn't either. I was more so curious than anything. But the fact that the media fails to ...

Re: State Fair of Texas 2025


All of the above "safety" partners were unable to prevent an unlicensed, illegal gun carrier from entering the fair grounds and shooting people. But hey, if you're there and you see someone about to shoot others, by all means say something. :banghead:


I had to look up the shooting I last ...

Re: State Fair of Texas 2025

Ya I checked last week knowing the Fair was coming soon. Still no change. Guess another year I am not going. I have always ridden DART rail to the fair to avoid parking fees and hassle and simply do not feel safe doing so unarmed.

Re: Glock 19 Gen 5 COA

I bought a Glock 19 COA a few months ago. I am not sure what to make of it and if I'll keep it or not. I normally carry a full size Glock 17 or 45 and I'm perfectly comfortable with it. When I need something smaller, a Glock 43 or 43x with a comp on it that makes it 48 size.

The good. The 19 COA is ...

Re: Seattle waterfront shooting

Agreed on not being able to claim self defense claim when you initiate the contact. I believe I first heard of this when I took Massad Ayoob's MAG40 Class (excellent class BTW and I feel everybody should take this while they still can with Mas still around).

One thing that gets me is this guy ...

Pretty crazy. I was watching some videos on YouTube on this last night. And yes, no mentions of a good guy with a gun where mentioned. Stay safe out there everybody and always be vigilant.

Re: Get a gun- cameras just record your murder

Just finished reading a few articles. Pretty sad. The house was apparently accessible after the suspect climbed a high spiked wall and entered an unlocked door. There were several calls to the police to report the burglary but they were not able to access the house due to the high wall and locked ...
