Re: Going to the Circus at the Freeman Colliseum

I went yesterday and saw nothing - I was looking. I've been there many times for gun shows and they always post, but no posting for the circus. Keep in mind, that there are lots of "bump frisk' opportunities and little kids running around, so be mindful of your cover! I was looking for this thr...

Not sure Costco is the safest place to carry. :leaving
Concealed is concealed! It's as safe as anywhere.

Re: First Weekend in Polite Society

take your gun off prior to having to jump into the pool to extract your overly brave child. This sounds like it could be a thread in and of it's self. :lol: ... :bigear: I bet the Glock was fine! :thumbs2: I was thinking of that exact scenario today.

Re: First Weekend in Polite Society

Update from a year of living more or less the same few days I outlined in the original post. Not a lot has changed. My carry rig is the same, minus the Wilderness belt (which I don't like, but still have) and I dabbled with appendix carry for a while when my back started to hurt, but I'm back to the...

Re: What's the Origin of Your User Name?

It's my name. It's a common enough one that I don't feel I give up anything personal with it, and it reminds me to never say anything that I wouldn't say in person.

And I can remember it. :lol:

change of address?

I moved and did the required CoA within a couple days. The CHL folks were great - I had my new corrected CHL weeks before my new driver's license. Now the question. I seem to remember that I am supposed to do something with my old license - return it to DPS? For some reason, I think I remember my in...

I'm selling a Mk III Hi-Power on TGT.

Let me know if this is what you want. I never carried it.

Re: Bexar County Tax Office (Vista Verde Plaza)

Ok - so major necropost, but I had to add this. I just went to renew my registration at the Bexar Cty. Tax office, and the same setup was there. Allied Security security dude with a huge wheelgun, etc. On my way out I asked him what the correct process was for CHL holders and he told me that he'd ei...

Re: Carry at the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo?

I wound up going and it was posted 30.06 - had to run back to the car and lock things up.

Fortunately the kids were in a good mood and I got a good parking space.

Carry at the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo?

Just checking - there's no prohibition against carrying there, is there?

Thanks -

Re: What is a school?

That does help, thanks.

Is there any statute that someone can point me to that would make it solid, or is this a matter of interpretation and custom?

What is a school?

For the purposes of carrying, what is a "school"? Does this mean primary, secondary and university type schools? Does it include the South West School of Art and Craft? (http://www.swschool.org/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) Does it include a driving school? How...

Re: First Weekend in Polite Society

Thanks for the kind words. The moving around is lessening - I think it was part of the breaking in process on the holster. It stays put pretty much. What's bothering me now is how my undershirt bites into my belt-line where it bunches around my waist. Maybe I need to get tighter undershirts... When ...

Re: Labor Day at the Range...San Antonio

Bullet Hole has never treated me wrong either, but I need the ability to shoot offhand at 100 yards, and they don't allow it. That's as ridiculous as Bracken's bullet shroud. Wetmore Shooting Sports is going to be opening up a range on the south side (near the 251/181 junction) in the near future. ...
