Re: Springfield XD-9 vs XD-9 Subcompact

I have owned both and I liked them both equally. I have very small petite hands and had no problems with either one. If she ever plans to carry I would go for the sc. I used my service for IDPA only and then sold it to buy my husband an xd 45 and now have only the sc. The only noticeable difference ...

Re: Gun Store question

I would make the drive to Bullet Trap or use Gunmasters, both are in Plano both have about the same prices. Employees are great at both places and both places will try and get you what ever you want. Bullet Trap has the biggest selection of test fire guns if you want to shoot before you buy and a gr...

Re: My Dog attacked by Pitbull while wearing my CCW

I have one question on the whole situation that is bugging me. What were you doing when your dog took off? Did the dog run from the house or were you hanging around outside in the yard with it? I ask because I am guilty of letting the girls (12yo rat terrier mix and 11 yo dalmation) go into the gara...

Re: CHL and Children and question

My daughter is 6 and she was told up front about it. We explained that she can talk about it in the privacy of the home but not in public. I took her with me clothes shopping as I needed new conceal shirts and she didn't say a word like it was normal to be there. Of course we have been working with ...

I have a 6 year old that is not fearful of ANYONE. No matter how many times I tell her and explain stranger danger she will just start talking to peo...

Nokia Theater Grand Prairie

Does anyone know if they have metal detectors or not? and if they are posted 30.06? I am going for a competition cheer event this weekend and cannot find any info saying if they use them for all events or just certain ones. I have looked online and found info from 2008 but nothing current. We carry ...

Re: December applications

Does anyone know what time of day they update the website?

I am getting so frustrated seeing the processing when I know everything is done and it is just sitting there waiting to be issued (per guy at CHL status line).

Re: Single or Double Mag Pouch for IDPA?

I carry two in a double mag pouch and two in my back pocket and use an xd9 sc. Since we can use 11 rounds in the first magazine I carry my long ones in my back pocket since I only need access to them when loading and making ready. (10 in mag and 1 in chamber) and then my short ones are on my belt re...

Re: December applications

Called for an update and background checks are back but there is a back log on actually issuing the licenses?? So aggravating because I could understand if they were waiting on info to come in to complete it, but not that it is completed and just sitting there. Said a supervisor was emailed on it bu...
