Re: Shooting Range Newbie needs a bit of advice - Frisco Are
Thanks, that helps a bit. What kind of targets would I generally bring for Pistol shooting? I hate to make the 20+ mile drive and realize I forgot something I needed. Also, I read that some ranges don't allow FMJ...is this just in regards to rifles? I can't see it being a real issue in 9mm, but agai...

Shooting Range Newbie needs a bit of advice - Frisco Area
I grew up in rural Arizona...so shooting ranges are not something I am familiar with. I just purchased a XD9SC that I would like to shoot to become comfortable with, but I have no idea what I am doing when I go to a range. What is the procedure for a newbie like me? I am not super close to any that ...

Re: Why can't Texas do this?
Great discussion, and shows why I am confused. From my point of view, reciprocity for CHL/CWP is the same as reciprocity for a license to practice medicine or law.

Re: Why can't Texas do this?
I have a related question, as this thread came up in a search. I have a Utah CFP. Texas offers full reciprocity. Does this also apply to the rule about 1,000 feet and a school zone? I would have assumed so, as Texas has given me the right (via reciprocity) to lawfully carry within the state...but I ...

Re: A New Holster Source
After finding a link from this site to the Glock forum, I ordered a holster for my XD9SC from him this morning. I emailed him late last night asking about some particulars (I didn't want as much point on the bottom) and he responded very quickly. I ordered mine in black, with belt slots of OWB carry...

Re: Gun Safety Rules
I tested my kids last night. We have had airsoft guns for some time, so I handed them a pistol, to see what they would do. The Airsoft gun isn’t 100% realistic (hard to check the chamber on this design), but it pointed out that where they tended to put their finger was very much muscle memory…it wen...

Re: I Saw a CHL Badge Yesterday
If you tell everyone you are carry concealed...doesn't that constitute "Failure to Conceal"?

Re: Church Carry - Incorrect information from CHL instructor
That's a real shame. I know he won't be able to recover anything from this "instructor", but he can sure let him know that his gun was stolen from his vehicle as a result of his misinformation. Lay a guilt trip on him if that's possible. Maybe, just maybe, he'll start teaching the truth s...

Re: Gun Safety Rules
Just printed out the rules from the first post, one copy for each kid that can read, and one for my wife and I. I was VERY insistent that each read and memorize them. I will continue to be insistent on this, until each knows the rules. The kids too young to read will be coached with extra guidance. ...

Re: new to CC...how to Motorcycle carry?
I have various sized tank bags...4 of them in fact...but I generally use my hard mounted trunk since I sometimes have to carry a laptop to/from work...so I leave the tankbags for touring purposes.

Re: new to CC...how to Motorcycle carry?
All good comments and discussion so far! I appreciate the input on the motorcycle carry especially. I to received CPR training…first in Boy Scouts and then again as part of Life Guard training. I wasn’t much of a Boy Scout, and never actually had a lifeguard job, but the training stuck and I have ha...
