      Man fires upon School Board members video

      Probably, Dave...a glaring example of how safe gun-free zones make us...:doh: Funny (well not really)...this video made me cringe. I was in a situation similar to this a few months ago, when I was held at gunpoint by a lunatic with a rifle. I remember that man's reaction very well --...

      Woods are full of thieves

      Interestingly enough....in Texas you actually CAN shoot to defend your property. I have a friend who had hunting property near Dallas who drove up on thieves stealing stuff from his shed. He unloaded on them with his pistol. One was shot, no one killed, but police cleared him, no charges...

      How many of you carry a round in the chamber?

      Good one...I swore that video clip was going to end with the dude shooting himself or the camera... I had to check again....hadnt noticed the shower curtain the first time... What better place for a stoner to do a video about gun safety? If someone gets shot, it's an easy place to clean...

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      Thanks aard... I shot a friend's 10mm, and actually I like the way it shoots. Of course, as far as handguns go and general recreational shooting, I only shoot fullsize guns anyway. Diving into the more concealable gun market is something I never really took seriously before now....

      What is the first gun that comes to mind when you hear the word: "Magnum"

      .357 magnum - S&W 686 .44 magnum - Ruger Super Redhawk Deafdave: I have a Marlin 1894 in .44 magnum. I believe Winchester still makes one too...both are lever action, tube magazine...your dad probably had one of those. It is sweet...the easiest way to shoot that monster pistol round!!!

      REALLY drank the koolaid

      I have a G21 (fullsize .45). I like the feel of fullsize handguns better, too...but I dont carry yet and wouldnt carry any of them. I also have an XD9 tactical -- it does have a slightly more comfortable grip, IMO, but I've been a big-bore kool-aid drinker since the first time I shot my...

      How many of you carry a round in the chamber?

      I've heard a lot about the SP series...in particular the SP101 for CCW if going the revolver route. I like .357 magnum a lot...and of course it's easy to train with .38 spl or lighter loaded magnum rounds.

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      I thank all of you for your well wishes and advice so far. Your opinions have been greatly appreciated... To get back to one part of my original post, however... I plan to take CCW training of course and any additional tactical training that's available for me. I know a carry gun is often a...

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      It's ridiculous, the JP Sheriff's office was stopped in delivering restraining orders/peace bonds (privacy laws, they claimed). They can't be served until he's released!!!! I dont know how long it will be but he will be released sooner than later... Posse: I had called the DA's office...

      How many of you carry a round in the chamber?

      I'm getting ready to apply for my CCW, so this is new to me... I havent even yet decided on my carry gun yet, but I have given this thought as well. I have to concur with everyone on this thread who has said you need to be ready, and comfortable enough with the weapon to NOT worry about a...

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      Duck/Spanky: I havent re-contacted the DA directly, but since he was brought in on a mental disability (danger to himself/others) he was brought to the hospital, not jail. When I learned he could possibly walk in 72 hrs or so, I contacted the police to press charges and they told me because of...

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      Thanks NOLACOP, and all for your comments so far... I agree 100%. Actually, yes...this was a push for sure, and to answer that question I can only say this: My 'plan' when I realized I had won the fight over the rifle and it hadnt shot anyone yet, was to get back and train it on him in...

      Held at gunpoint...getting started on CCW

      Had the worst experience of my life last week. For years I've been a gun owner, and enjoyed shooting, but never really looked into concealed carry. My life changed last week when me, along with my mother in law and wife, were held at gunpoint by of all people, my father in law. He had been...

      Help chosing a 45

      .45ACP has been my favorite handgun caliber --amateur opinion, I dont shoot competition, but it just feels good, and of course has great downrange energy for the kill. I'm not a carry expert, but I like the 1911 model for general accuracy and overall reliability of the browning design. I have...
