Since no one has posted for today, I guess I will.
It is 168 days, 13 hours, 57 minutes, 50 seconds until Friday, January 1, 2016 (Austin time)

Re: OPEN CARRY COUNTDOWN-
How many days until HB910 is in full effect?
Your best option for personal security is a lifelong commitment to avoidance, deterrence, and de-escalation.
When those fail, aim for center mass.

Re: OPEN CARRY COUNTDOWN-
I went into academy sports yesterday and, of course, visited the firearms section.
I noticed that on the shelves with the holsters that had two signs: Concealed and Open Carry.
Obviously they are planning ahead.
It made me smile.

164 'til Open Carry. And Happy Moon Walk day to all y'all!
3 days to Open Carry for me. My 18 year old son and I will cross the New Mexico border on Thursday at about 1300CDT. I'll carry openly until we again cross the Texas-New Mexico border as we return Aug 3.
We are heading to Tucson, AZ, to fly rockets in the dessert. http://naram57.org While in AZ, my son will also carry openly.
My 9mm will be IWB. His sub-compact .45 will be OWB. Not making any statements, just going about life and waiting for 1/1/16.

Well, we're only 44 days away from that 90. So now can we have a secondary countdown?Beiruty wrote:When it hits 90 days to go, it is near.

Re: OPEN CARRY COUNTDOWN-
It got a little warm today as we grocery shopped and had lunch in Polson. I thought about shucking my new concealed carry vest and going au naturel with my compact 1911 exposed for all to see. Inasmuch as no one nowhere was wearing their piece out in the open, I decided that rather than draw any unwanted and unnecessary attention, I kept my vest on over my CC.
We nodded to a mature gent with a similar vest going into Super One as we were leaving. Do y'all reckon that he.......
