Re: What is a belt holster
All of this does beg the question, how long before we see the first holster marketed as "Texas Legal Belt Holster. You define it; we refine it. Only the finest grain leathers used."

I guess I'm in the minority who isn't gnashing his teeth or wringing his hands over this subject.

Re: What is a belt holster
I know what you're going for there, but I'm thinking that if the gun is in a purse it is not being openly carried and doesn't matter whether it's actually in a holster or not.WildBill wrote:What if the law said you had to carry it in a shoulder purse?
Would that mean you had to carry the purse on your shoulder for it to be legal?

I'm glad Chuck has other methods of defense at his disposal than the hammer down on empty chamber, 1911.

Actually I read that it is a Beretta 92, not a 1911.oljames3 wrote:Topbuilder wrote:You tell him he's wrong.

If you want to know for sure you could call or send an email asking him if that is really a pimped out Beretta 92 that he carried on Walker Texas Ranger.

Chuck doesn't even have to aim or shoot. He just yells "bang" and they fall.

Re: What is a belt holster
I believe Mr. Norris only has to think "bang". That is the way it is when one reaches his level of transcendence.
