Re: 1911 Shooters Thumb on/off Safety

I keep my thumb on top. Not sure if it helps my shooting or not, I like it as a tactile reminder of the gun's condition.

Re: Defensible Loads in Court Cases involving Self-Defense



Military use of FMJ is to comply with the Geneva Convention requirement for non-expanding ammunition. It is known for deep penetration.

Re: President Trump signs EO to protect gun ownership



The federal firearms act in its entirety.
The only constitutional part is probably the restriction against ownership by convicted felons, and states can legislate that on their own.


I disagree that the restricted person ban is constitutional either, especially not for non-felons.

But the ...

Re: Ouch this must hurt


Not all police officers are shooters and there are many who do not know anything outside of their issued handgun. I personally know a young man that graduated the Academy 16 years ago and he has yet learned another platform other than his Glock.

Re: Legality of carrying in a school building

I mostly agree with Howdy, with a few personal clarifications.
Several years ago I spent a fair amount of time studying this. As a parent and educator, I was on and around school campuses a lot and wanted to be on the legal side of the line. It isn't always clear, so I tried to figure out what I ...

Re: Texas State Fair Carry Rules

There is no reason to limit it to the state fair. As mentioned earlier, there are many activities that will ban carry for a one or two-day event.

Excellent news!
Dad had his prostate removed at Ascension Providence several years ago and was also pleased with the surgeon, facilities, and staff. Getting back in shape will be tough - stick to it. It sounds like you have a great motivator!
