Re: Wife robbed at gunpoint today- HEB in Friendswood

I worked at that HEB for about 5 years, and shop at that Wal-Mart once or twice a week. A good wake up call that these kinds of things really can happen anywhere. It's kind of ironic, Any time my wife (no CHL) has to do the shopping solo, she goes north up Hwy 45 to the avoid the wonderful La Marque...

Re: Just have to share....

Thanks guys...will definately post up the range report when i get a few through it, hopefully some time next week. I went to the local gun shop to grab some ammo for it and they had both the P3AT and the TCP 738 in stock - I hadn't seen them next to each other before. TCP seems just a smidge larger ...

Re: Friend had to draw his weapon tonight for protection

I'm just going to chime here for a sec. In defense of the "friend" who pulled his weapon. That section of Hwy 6 is most often very busy, and he may not have been able to just drive off. I used to live there so that's how I know this. Hwy 6 used to be only a two lane road, but they have wi...

Ya i agree that most of the anti feelings stem from emotion and also a lack of knowledge. The uninformed part is easier to deal w/, but the emotional one is what seems to be a little trickier. Particularly my SO is the one that has the most isssues. She agrees with the logic that i provide, but when...

Anti-Gun question...

First, just introducing myself. Found this through TFL and so far it has been very helpful and provided way more information than my dial-up can handle. I currently do not have a CHL nor do i own a handgun due to my current cash flow situation, but none the less i feel that education is key and am s...
