While a gunshot in an enclosed environment might cause damage, it is likely that auditory exclusion which occurs in such situations might gain you a free pass. I only fired once in a moment of need and the sound was a small pop. I could not believe how light that sound was.
I do carry earplugs...
First suggestion is to read the manual (Look it up on-line - if you know the manufacturer.) for this gun to fully understand how these parts all properly function. There are many details which would be helpful to you right now. Particularly knowing how the various parts are secured is vital...
I think that the first step is to figure out what it is that you hope to accomplish with any tool. From there, you start to make better decisions.
Some areas:
Protection/concealed carry
Hunting - big game or small game
Target - long range, short range
Sporting clays
Plinking
Sad loss of a good man. I met him in Denver during the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference. He was signing his Glock pictures and speaking with people. I told him how much I valued his positive representing of our shooting sports and particularly the effort that he put into...
I agree with Spleen. I like the Milt Sparks Summer Special 2. Comfortable, fast and concealable.
Toyed with getting a MIC after one of our guys started carrying one and raved about it, but have not taken the plunge yet.
Welcome. Sincerely.
But I think that you are misinterpreting a content comment with lack of welcome. Quite separate items.
As to the video, it does not give us much to work with in the situation shown, but the official records, complaint call recording and officer body cams will show us...
I started by asking a question and giving the generally accepted answer. This was a lead to my main point. I then separated between open and concealed carry because I see a strong practical reasoning there. I close with my final argument which I freely admit might be used against my earlier...
Intentionally ambiguous...
It is interesting to see the varied views in here. Some people seem to really dislike the police for some reason. If this is the case, you might spend a moment or two looking in the mirror. You might be the problem.
On the other hand, I know of local agencies...
If you open a business, then can you halt people from coming in because they do or do not meet your various preferences? The civil rights laws are pretty clear that you cannot.
I believe that this should extend to people who are exercising their right to carry self defense tools. I am not...
As a recreational diver, I have Advanced Open Water, Nitrox, Deep, Nav and a few other certs.
I would be interested in any LE related dive training.

I can empathize with the frustration of dealing with LA DMV bureaucratic screw-up.
Many years ago, I went to renew my license in Baton Rouge and was informed that I could not renew - because I was dead. I laughed, but they were serious. I asked the lady if she often spoke to dead people and...
Thanks - will be good to get back.
As to our shooting spot in Barataria, let's just say it ain't there no more. The old building which dated back to the 1700s got washed away and the little berm is also gone. Katrina was quite unkind...
Greetings all!
As so many Louisianians of my generation did, I had to move for career reasons. But am retiring and coming home to southeast Louisiana soon. Wanted to check out the shooting climate in anticipation, so I was bothering someone on another forum for info on ranges. He politely...
