Something is awry, even if it is just that Sig did very little to openly address the issue when it was "lore" and hadn't completely become widely accepted as being true, regardless of the validity of the claims. I have one and I really like it, but I have also sidelined it until I have more reasons than a PR statement to restore my confidence in it.

It's not 100% yet but it's better than it was. Will try to get a better fix in place over the next week.

I will look into it, but it may be Tuesday before I can. The next two days are booked solid for me.

Yes, I'd cancel the PayPal subscription and try again. Something has gotten out of sync between the forum and PayPal.

You had a few expired Benefactor memberships that were eligible for renewal. I canceled them entirely, so you should be able to re-subscribe under a new one now.

A little more information added above. Thanks.

If you are part of a safety/security program for your church, synagogue, or faith-based school or organization within driving distance of Nashville, or have personal contacts filling those roles, message me privately please. I am helping organize a private event in March that will be of interest. Material will be presented by two former CIA members on the current and emerging threat of terror attacks by ISIS and Al Qaeda against faith based organizations in the United States. Pastoral leaders, principals of faith-based schools, and leaders of faith-based organizations are welcomed and encouraged to attend with their safety/security leads. This is a private event. Security will be very tight. Advance RSVP will be required for admission. This the most public thing you will see mentioned about it until after the event has occurred. Again, message me if you are a team leader for a safety/security program at your church or synagogue or can put me in touch with them. Also if you are a security leader or officer for a faith-based school or college. Thanks! **Driving distance means whatever you want it to mean. I'm expecting a few people from other states.

Thanks. I know a few people who might be interested.

I carry one of these daily and have had several folks ask about mine. Does yours have the Gen 1or the Gen 2 optic cut? I'll be glad to pass word of it along to some folks who have inquired about mine.

Allow me to bring this thread back from the dead... So, twelve or thirteen years ago I started taking Krav Maga classes. It lasted about 4-5 months and then I quit. Work and other things in life got in the way and I just lost the drive. >>> Fast forward to December 2024 >>> While my brother in law was visiting for Christmas he told us that he and his wife had begun taking Krav Maga classes. They spoke about how much they enjoyed it, how challenging it was, and so forth. Given that several of my friends have been hounding me about coming back to join them at Krav classes, it set a slowly smoldering fire in the wet leaves of my give-a-damn. One of those friends started his Krav Maga journey 12 years or so at around the same time I did and passed his black belt test in mid 2024. Talk about something that catches your attention! Realizing that two of us took wildly diverging paths and one of us ended up with their black belt while the other kept buying progressively larger belts.... Yeah. >>> Fast forward to January 2025 >>> One of those friends told me on New Years Day, quite coyly, about a gift pass that he had for a free month of unlimited Krav Maga classes. It was the proverbial straw that broke the fat camel's back. "Say no more. I'm in.", I said. >>> Fast forward to January 30, 2024 >>> And now here we are at the end of my third week of returning to the art. Three classes a week, more or less. (I had to miss a Saturday due to family commitments) I totally suck at it. I've forgotten most of what I learned previously. I'm nearly 15 years older and probably 75 pounds heavier than I was back then too. BUT... I'm loving it. Clothes are getting looser. Stamina is increasing. I'm allowing myself some grace and mercy and allowing myself to be terrible at it, rather than being the usual maladaptive perfectionist that I normally am. It feels like the journey I am supposed to be on, embracing my limitations and imperfections, and trusting that the process will slowly erode both of those things while it also erodes some of those 75 extra pounds. The point of all of this? I just want to encourage you. You aren't out of the game until you sideline yourself. Life will try to sideline you, but it can't unless you let it. It may slow you down. It may limit you. But you don't have to quit unless quitting sounds like a good way to go out. Get out there and do something that challenges you this year. Six months from now, I hope to be surprised at what I've accomplished.

It's attempted murder. Of children. IMO, the conclusion of this should be the death penalty if he's found guilty.

Ditto! My dress boots are Chisos but the boots I wear most are my Double H's.
