But I liked my sheriffs badge that came with my twin cowboy pistols and winchester rifle.

I'd never seen one before (in person) and it looked to be a real labor just to pull it out from his wallet. Plus add to that, if there comes a time that I have to use my weapon, I don't think reaching for a badge is going to be one of my first priorities. However, he is a friend and while I think he...

I saw a friend of mine at Wally world yesterday, and he is a CHL, Our conversation quickly turned to that topic, gear, guns and conceal carry. He promptly told me that I needed to buy a badge just in case I am ever in an incodent that I should throw it over my belt just to show the cops that I have ...

The first month after recieving my CHL I felt like I had everyone attention everytime I went somewhere public, sometime even in my garage if I had the door open. After the 2nd month it became more normal for me. Now it is habbit. I once walked down to the mail box a couple of blocks over to retrieve...

Also just FYI - I had no problems with my tactical XD 5" with the same ammo all day.

I own two XD .45's . One is a XD .45 service 4" and the other is an XD .45 Tactical 5". I was shooting federal ball ammo out of my service pistol and it began giving me Failor To Feed problems. The new round would be almost at a twelve oclock position within the chamber after the extractio...

Thanks

All I know is what I see ont he box guys - .45 Auto vs .45 ACP - basically the same round, right?

I don't know how long this bill has been on the table - however I think it's funny that it happens during a time when we have Republicans on the bad side of the Hispanic vote (imo) and a real chance to change the look of Congress this fall. Would a 51st State change the picture this fall?

Did the democrats just make a play to get more power by adding a Latino only entity to our United States? Puerto Rico. Make sure to read the whole article - very interesting read. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/04/29/house-approves-puerto-rico-statehood-measure/" onclick="window.open...

Auto Colt Pistol versus the Auto - is there a difference?

I'm heading out to the "Astro" range heading toward Austin tomorrow with the wife. If they let me I'll try and take some pics of it and let you guys know what I think of it. It's a fairly new range, so I'm hoping that it's a nice area to shoot. Just me and the wife tomorrow, so wish me luc...
