      Pistol in Car Dilemma

      Exactly. Duty to retreat. You are not IN your house. You are not IN immediate threat. Call the police and move back. Period.

      OMG...that was pretty funny. My RAM actually came with a lockable vault in the console.

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      Seen the clip-draw. Interesting concept. Read a lot of love/hate reviews. But everyone has an opinion. I did buy the Galco pocket for the 26 as well. Wasn't thrilled w/the trigger coverage, took pictures, and sent to Galco with some questions. They explained to me that the gap on the one-side...

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      I have horizontals. The Army used to have fits about it with the M9. I also made a horizontal for the Glock. Almost bought the Miami Classic (and would have been less expensive than making my own). I am well versed in the Glock's safety mechanisms, but 40 years of manual safeties and a hammer...

      Does anyone here actually use a shoulder rig?

      I know they get a bad rep, but I first used one in Afghanistan (local market buy, and another in Iraq for my M-9 when on FOB and not needing the full battle-rattle. I found them comfortable, accessible (not as fast as 3:00 OWB, but pretty good) For a 2013 Cross-Country motorcycle trip, I...

      What did you learn at your Wear & Carry training class that you didn't know before attending?

      Since no longer on duty/uniformed representing LEO (military), probably hypersensitive concealment. Don't need the hassle or conflict. Still trying out different carry options. Being a little wide-at-the-waist, IWB isn't my best option (though, 5 oclock is doable; not a fan of appendix, lean to...

      What did you learn at your Wear & Carry training class that you didn't know before attending?

      First, this has been a good thread and I appreciate the comments. Second, the vehicle storage aspect-I had issues with the way the MDSP website really skirted this issue with decent specificity. I have a LEOSA, and for some reason, carrying as a civilian is different for me (worry about...

      Electronic Fingerprint File

      I have used PrintScan and FBI check. It was $50 for that and my FBI sheet. They have stations in many places you may not be aware of. The one I was directed to was an insurance company. Within 4 hours I had my FBI sheet in my inbox. (Used for LEOSA).

      Same here. Also on Target Sports. But I'm not ready to take a second mortgage out for primers....

      Don’t Take Your Gun Off in Bathrooms

      Yep. Used to do that w/my M9 in IZ. right there. its pretty hard to forget it there and you DONT want to fish that out of the Spot-O-Pot. That blue will never come out of your hands. Trust me on that.

      Remington 700 Police

      Nice rifle. Have one I bought new in the late 80s in .308 at the Howard Co show. I wanted a SA, but couldn't afford one, and this was a good buy at 650 new and in box. I put a Leopold Bench Rest 25x on it and a Harris bipod. Didnt get out to shoot it often as kids, etc, and run a bore swab...

      bass pro shops gun counter guys

      Well, he doesn't have his way. Cops enforce, not interpret. My experiences w/Bass Pro has been positive in the past. Just in the last 2 years or so, there always is a line. So, haven't bought a firearm from them in a couple years.

      .45 Long Colt for Deer Hunting

      And they could use a better technical writer. I remember the hunting reg used to be only a few pages that you could fold and put w/your license. Now they have the magazine, all the adds. Nice magazine, but poor/confusing writing.
