( just wasn't any fun, anymore!)
Retired Federal LEO
(challenging until the End)

Always had a Winchester Pump 12g
(just something about the sound when chambering, peaceful and telling for the one doing the chambering, unsettling for the other one)

First CCW Permit, 1st Privately owned Handguns, ever!
(just something about racking a 9mm)

All the training in the world just won't let me carry without a thumb safety. Can't get rid of that training Brain gap.

So, the Shield 9 Plus without safety is mounted on a magnet holder, locked and loaded next to the bed.

The Shield 9 EZ with Thumb Safety and Safety Grip is EDC. Just simply peace of mind. I know where the safety is, it releases as it's unholstered.

Haven't shared this much public info in 74 years. Lived a sheltered life, must be getting old, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. :D

Probably more info than anyone wanted or needed.

Anyway, learned years and years ago, Ain't any of us getting outta this World Alive!

Greetings from the Volunteer State,
Davy sends his regards, and says "Remember The Alamo"

Welcome from the Commonwealth, Gunny! And thanks for your service. I cut my teeth with a full-sized Colt with a thumb safety back in the early 70's. Carried revolvers after getting out, then just about every brand, model or type on the job except a single action 1911. My chiefs just couldn't see a cocked and locked pistol as being safe.

Enjoy your time here! Go Cats!

Regards from the Bluegrass,
Rick Gibbs
