    Contact your legislators - Smith & Wesson made it easy!

    Sent... I've also used Ruger's site, and have sent several using the NRA-ILA site. We HAVE to keep the pressure on, so tell your friends, family, acquaintances...hell, tell total strangers!! Those bozos in D.C. and in our state capitals need to have the fear of not getting re-elected put in...

    True story on breaking an entering

    First, let me say that I completely support the men and women who take the oath to "protect and serve" and admire them for their bravery. Second, I'm not going to get into the discussion of whether they are "required" by law to protect individuals. The bottom line is this: the work of police...

    My Wife on Self Defense

    Outstanding!!! A quote came to mind when reading your post: "Train up a child in the way he [she] should go: and when he [she] is old, he [she] will not depart from it." - Proverbs 22:6 You, sir, are doing it right! I was also reminded of an old TV show with Art Linkletter - Kids Say the...

    My Wife on Self Defense

    LOL...very true!! And of course, I would HAVE to try any and all guns purchased...just to make sure they're in good working order. And that testing might take several weeks... :D

    Glad I was Packing My 442

    Spoken like someone who has never faced the business end of a gun or survived a near-miss by a knife wielding moron outside of combat (given your screen name I assume you may have served in combat). I have experienced both as a civilian (never been a LEO), and thank God I survived. I am more...

    My Wife on Self Defense

    I've done some research looking for a class that is newbie and female friendly. My friend, the General, has sent several of his female family members and friends to a local range that specializes in training women to shoot, so I think my wife will be going there. We've already made plans to...

    Glad I was Packing My 442

    In my profession (minister) I sadly spend more time than I'd like to in hospitals and ER's. Since obtaining my CHP a couple of months ago I always carry when visiting hospitals. Old Cop, you were wise to carry and even wiser to be suspicious. I spent 14 weeks serving as a full-time intern...

    My Wife on Self Defense

    AMEN brother!! It is up to us (gun enthusiasts) to educate friends and family. Imagine what would happen to the anti-gun thugs if every gun owner could help change the thinking of just one anti-gun person?!? Obama, Feinstein, Reed...they would see their support group (already a minority) dwindle...

    My Wife on Self Defense

    As you might guess from my screen name I, too, am a minister. It is refreshing to see another colleague discussing CCW. I have had my permit (here it is called CHP - Concealed Handgun Permit) for about six weeks. I carry 99.9% of the time. The only time I don't (excluding the illegal places like...

    New report about school shooting

    Yep...they can't let facts get in the way of their agenda. They will make certain the "facts" match the story that will support their attack on the 2nd amendment.

    Conceald Carry

    Old Faithful. Same design as Crossbreed but if you buy the kit it is half the price. Also, the leather and the kydex is thicker...just my 2 cents.

    New to me SW9VE anything I need to know

    Congrats on the purchase. As BBauer927 said you didn't over pay. And I agree with others...read the manual, then: clean-lube-shoot...REPEAT! I've had mine for a year now...put about 800 rounds through it without one problem. Once you get used to the trigger (which means practice, practice...

    Flying and taking firearms

    Moonman is correct...mailing weapons can only be done through a FFL dealer. As for taking them with you on the plane, that is not difficult at all. You will need a lockable gun case, such as a GunVault 100 or 100. Place your unloaded weapon in the case, along with the ammo in the original box...

    Here it comes....

    Well, thanks to Czar Obama I will no longer be a law-abiding citizen...my EDC holds 15 rounds. Of course, when he gets his real agenda foisted on the American people, ANY gun owner will be a criminal. He wants the total ban of civilian ownership of guns...that will make it so much easier when he...

    Ruger's "Take Action Now!" for contacting your Representatives

    Thanks for the link...everyone MUST forward this info to all their friends. And don't forget to use the NRA-ILA website as well. We cannot remain silent and sit on the sidelines...we must stop this attack!

    You just heard a window smash...

    Before I hear a window smashing or a door busted in, one of my outside perimeter alarms would go off. No matter which side of my home a potential intruder might choose, I'll know long before he gets close to a window or door. So, the perp would enter the window or door and come face to bullet...

    Guess I will order my IWB online

    I've carried my Sigma in an Old Faithful for several months. It works great, it's comfortable for all day use, and it costs much less than Crossbreed. Also, the kydex is thicker, as is the leather...and since the kydex is attached with screws (instead of rivets) you can adjust the tightness as...

    Ammo apocalypse!

    I was in my local Walmart about two weeks ago...only had empty shelves where the popular ammo should have been. I was there about 6 days ago and they actually had about 15 boxes of Federal 9mm. They were priced the same as before, so I bought two boxes. They also had plenty of .22 and some boxes...
