Re: Renewal Debacle

I received immediate responses and attempts of assistance. The representative and his staff are exemplary. They are working on the case now and are experiencing the same obstacles, prevarications, and obfuscation that we all have. In the meantime, I've received a call (voice mail) telling me for the...

Renewal Debacle

Just the facts: Moved out of state so renewal became 'out of state' renewal. Proper change of address on file with DPS, as required. One is still required to travel to TX to get a TX Notary!?!? on all forms for out of state renewal. Mailed package MARCH.13 (expired May 28) Mail notified first of MAY...

Re: Mardi Gras?

NOLA gets around this issue with a state law that prohibits chl carry to/at any parade for which a permit has been issued. The LEO may have been aware of LA's law & extrapolated it into Texan. Interestingly also, in LA it is illegal to chl carry into any private residence without 1st receiving p...

Re: Walking through 30.06 signs

I have to agree with you Ledi. If I am going into an establishment that doesn't want anyone packing I simply leave my pistol in my car. Just that simple. I agree with Ledi as well - but respectfully, not you. Take your business and $$ elsewhere - DON'T risk the trip to and from the business and loo...

Re: WOULD YOU SHOOT???????????

While I would not shoot unless to save a life (my line in the sand, thanks, Mr Cotton) - I would however, stand behind you & Mr Horn as you defended property - it's your right to STOP the dirtbags... § 9.42. DEADLY FORCE TO PROTECT PROPERTY. A person is justified in using deadly force against a...

It looks like I'll be able to "unofficially" use the 21c as is Depends upon the match & MD. A ported barrel can be a safety issue if the match includes shots from retention. You could easily end up with a face full of hot gases & damage your eyes. Otherwise I agree with Sailor - c...

Our letter to Fox 4: Your 'indefinite suspension' of Ms. Agular is grossly insufficient for such an egregious betrayal of public trust. What about the producers who approved this for the air? What about her superiors? She should NEVER be brought back under any circumstances. Her producers and superv...
