      Concealed carry permit

      I took a concealed carry class at the Shooters Club in Harahan about 6 weeks ago. This past week, I got a certified letter in the mail from the Louisiana State police indicating my finger print cards were not of good enough quality. An enclosed letter indicated having my finger prints done at...

      Range keeps copy of Form 4

      I went to a range several years ago and a range official was looking at every weapon and recording serial numbers. Had I not been on a long anticipated range day with my brother-in-law and my two sons, I would have immediately walked out. I regret doing so. I have never been back. I think...

      Self Defense for my daughter

      Good. I want to have my granddaughter take it in the next couple of years as she grows a bit older. I sat in on one lesson to see what it was about and then bought a book on it. It seems like the world is becoming less civilized. Unfortunately I got diagnosed with cancer before I started a...

      Self Defense for my daughter

      Try to find training in Krav Maga. That is the Israeli military martial arts. It does not train the student to spar by rules. It trains the student to survive a no rules bared street fight. A kick in the nuts, gouging eyes, and chocking are all valid tactics in a life or death street fight...

      .45 ACP handgun suggestions...

      I have a FNX Tactical, fine gun. My favorite is my HK 45 Compact Tactical. This is a different pistol than the HK USP Compact Tactical. I love both of these 2 pistols. Both have a threaded barrel for a suppressor. I usually fire 230 grain subsonic ammo. I don't have any data to support it...

      Headed For Neck Surgery

      I had this surgery in 2005. Mine was a bit more complicated. They also discovered a broken bone fragment imbedded in my spinal cord. I had been suffering all the symptoms of a heart problem such as pain in left arm etc. I actually complained to my doctor about my arm doing my pre-op for...

      My new purchases

      It seems like the recent mass shooting has brought out the anti-gun people again. Unfortunately, President Trump has indicated he may be willing to compromise and pass some form of gun restriction. This has embolden the anti-gun people further. It seems like they may gain some traction this...

      Mobil-1 gun oil

      I had a can of Mobile 1 in a spray can many years ago and used it on my guns. It was really good. I also used it to lubricate my car door hinge. When I attempted to get out of the car, I pushed the door as I normally did and the car door flew open violently. It worked too good. When that...

      Bump stock

      Sorry guys. I voiced a personal opinion. I have no problem with differing opinions. Still friends, I hope? I do have to agree with the "slippery slope" argument.

      Bump stock

      I need to qualify something first. I am an uncompromising advocate for the Second Amendment, I just don't think the anti-gun crowd are honest negotiators. They are not interested in "reasonable gun control" or "gun safety." Their end game is an outright ban. With every shooting, they clamor...
