Not to hijack the thread, but what's the point of these signs? They basically translate as "it's illegal to break the law" as far as I can tell.

My daughter....19 yo, and somewhat of a leadfoot, got stopped by IPD on 114 for going 70+ in a 60.

For a moment, I read that as going 114 in a 60.

So at first this bum said his wife went out the back door to check the pig and just gets shot. Then the bottom drops out on that tail because it's too far over the moon, so the cop takes a seat and fundamentally changes his story: He drank too many Heinie-cans or Duffs, rears and fires his gun wild...

There are two competing theories that stand up to scrutiny. The first says follow the money. The second says Texas legislators have the emotional maturity of a six year old throwing a temper tantrum.

This.

Thanks, that helps answer the question.

Let me clarify, if I can: 1. AZ does not distinguish between in-state and out-of-state applicants. My AZ permit was applied-for from, and issued to, my TX residence. It is valid for the next few years. 2. I'm not talking about MPA per se. I'm talking about handing the officer my TX DL and an AZ CHP....

Anyone here that's a TX resident been stopped while carrying, who only had an out of state permit (recognized by TX)? How did the LEO react? Any problems? I have Texas residency, DL, insurance, etc., but my permit is from AZ since I don't yet have a TX CHL. Just wondering whether to expect lengthy d...

I am deeply offended by this.

It should be "There are other states?" instead. :D

One thing about the security cables that come with those small safes: make sure it is strong enough (as in thick enough) to do the job. Manufacturers will tout the tensile strength, but nobody tries to pull them in half, they just take a pair of pliers to them. You may need to go by a hardware store...

We talk about anger management, safety, and other commonsense issues when it comes to firearms... and he did nothing wrong? I hope that was meant to be a joke.

If you could buy a pistol right now, what would you buy? I am torn between another Sig, a Glock, a Beretta or a Springfield XD Well, it wouldn't be one of those four, but that's me. My next handgun, when I can afford it, will probably be a .357 wheelgun, either S&W or Ruger. I do have some more...

Or a Taurus-Lamborghini?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

If the guy is already raising his gun you're already at a tactical disadvantage. I'd yell "GUN!" to give the cop a heads up, take cover, and draw my weapon. In that order. Remember: If you're not shooting, you're moving. If you're not moving, you're communicating. If you're not communicat...

That's odd, I heard the GOP Convention was going to be postponed. They're still looking for a candidate that isn't certifiably bug-eatin' crazy.
