  I only trust news on stuff like this from places like InfoWars and PrisonPlanet, don't need to read and think for myself, thanks.   - OS

According to the left, they can round up the 250+ million guns in this country, but they can't round up 11 million illegal immigrants. :screwy:

Thursday night, Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that Democrats have been “exploiting misery and tragedy” to pursue their anti-gun agenda. “But here’s my challenge to the president of the United States, you think this is so easy,” he said. “Forego your Secret Service protection, for you, for the first lady, and your children, and see what it is like to have to fend yourself.”   http://www.mrctv.org/videos/sheriff-david-clarke-challenges-obama-forego-your-secret-service-protection

Gentlemen, here is the proof. Share this photo with your spouse. You're welcome!

A properly designed pocket pistol should not have a manual safety.

I want to believe that people are blowing this out of proportion, but people have been underestimating Obama at every turn and look how well that has worked out.

Well not exactly. I have had some pretty cool jobs that allowed me to work with some cool people. I just lead a very boring personal life, but I just found out that I used to hang out with someone most of you know. I went to Western Michigan which is right across the street from Kalamazoo college. My best friend was on their comedy troop there so I used to hang out with them A LOT. While chatting with my friend he asked me what i thought of Steven getting so famous. I was really confused and told him i had no idea what he was talking about. He described some times we all hung out, it started to come back to me. We got a good laugh about the fact i was to dumb to pick up that Glen from the Walking Dead was a college friend of mine (I knew him as Steve)

Reminds me of what Jeff Foxworthy said when the Olympics came to the Ocoee.... "If Ned Beaty can't make it down that river, a Frenchman in bicycle pants hasn't got a chance." :D

It isn't confined to the lake. People in general today are self absorbed a$$holes.   My job requires me to deal with the public on a regular basis, and in the last couple of years in particular, I've grown to despise the public.

"Protect and Serve" at its finest. That man deserves a raise.

Just get a damn holster.  Spend $15 on this trash, another $22 on the kydex thing, and throw in some shipping charges. Next thing you know, you could have just bought a real holster. 

I continue to like David Clarke and the way he tells it like it is. My fear is one day the left will find a way to silence him. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

I thought those cry babies were always talking about tolerance?  I guess tolerance means "accept everything about us and deal with it but change everything we don't like."

Hornaday Critical Defense.  I've seen what they do to ballistics gelatin, never was comfortable carrying a .380 until I found this ammo.

No one said the UN was taking our guns... If you read the post, you'd understand this is to block weapons trade across borders and create a global registry to track guns and gun owners. Now, if we're all students of history, we could assume that registration leads to confiscation.   I won't stick my head in the sand an hope for the best on any gun control, especially global gun control being written by the Socialists International and Communists at the UN.   Meeting of the SI Council at the United Nations in Geneva: http://www.socialistinternational.org/viewArticle.cfm?ArticleID=2326 Meeting of the SI Council at the United Nations, New York: http://www.socialistinternational.org/viewArticle.cfm?ArticleID=2388   Communist Party USA - The fight to curb gun violence is a working-class issue: http://www.cpusa.org/the-fight-to-curb-gun-violence-is-a-working-class-issue/    Democratic Socialists of America - There Is No Second Amendment Right To A Gun: http://www.dsausa.org/there_is_no_second_amendment_right_to_a_gun   United Nations Office Of Disarmament Affairs - THE ARMS TRADE TREATY: http://www.un.org/disarmament/ATT/   And Leroy....That piece of paper called the Constitution, it only has meaning and power when the Govt and the People of the USA believe in it and are correctly educated on it. So far, that isn't happening in our schools and colleges lately, nor by a lot of politicians. So that said, the second Amendment could disappear in a blink if folks are educated and propagandized to be against it. Just read that DSA article I linked above and how they view the 2A and what they're teaching the Democratic Socialists of America subscribers and card carrying members.    For now, I feel as long as we can keep the anti-2A majority of our Democratic Socialists of American aka Democrats and Progressive RINO Republicans from having a majority rule in congress, we'll be safe.    But power shifts back and forth, so anything could happen in the next few elecctions.

I'm within 30 miles of Chattanooga and have a number of handguns from 22lr to 45 acp, both semi autos and revolvers. I have no problem letting you try some out. PM me.

I just got a Bodyguard 380 and love it. The OP might want a manual safety for the same reason I did. I needed something to fill a very small need for a very short amount of time but it may get knocked around in my pocket a bit. I just couldn't risk it even in a holster.

CTD can choke on my capitalism. They haven't received a penny from me in years and won't receive one in the foreseeable future.

Yup. This baby ain't going off in my pocket: - OS

  Say it isn't so...if Snopes is in on the conspiracy, I have lost all hope...selling my mutual funds to buy stock in Reynolds. Tin foil prices will go thru the roof and I'll be rich.

  Tin Foilers now consider Snopes as part of the greater Liberal Conspiracy. :)   - OS

If the Pentagon can be hacked, couldn't Carbonite?

Personally I don't want shot by any brand.  I use Golden Sabre because that is what the county uses.  Just be sure your gun cycles with perfection whichever brand you choose.

It takes a little getting used to, the jaws fit in the groove of the case and if not secure it can spin off.  I didn't see much wobble but if you have a used drill that part can introduce a wobble as well.  With the length gauge in the primer hole though, a small wobble wont be much of an issue.

I went to college with Terrell Owens.  I chatted with him on a couple of occasions during basketball tournaments (I was a band geek).  He is (was), by far, the most athletically talented person I've ever met.  At the time, he seemed like a pretty nice guy and was relatively "normal".  Funny how money/fame changes people.    One of my wife's aunts went to high school with Wayne Knight (Newman, from Seinfeld). 

I don't think they're trying to apply an exact timeline, except that it's "quick", so just 2 or 3 days at most so far. As Tobias says pointedly to reinforce that, "when civilization ends, it ends fast".       Next episode is in two weeks, the Zeds wanted Labor Day weekend off. :)   - OS

Still around

Jefferson Presidential is probably in my top 2 or 3 all time favorites when it comes to bourbon. They make some great stuff.

it was nice seeing you LJ

I just got rid of the last of my colored liquors.  Just can't do it anymore.  Dunno why they hurt my stomach so bad.  ohh well.         I did discover quite the nice little drink tonight.  POM wonderful over crushed ice with a shot of Golden Grain (190).  Very nice.  A bit strong on the tastebuds but I like it.   I think I'll call it a PomaGrainian.   :rofl:

That's funny.

Looks like it took place at Nightmare Range - - - I know it well. 

If your gun is going off when holstered, you should replace it.   Your carry gun should only fire when the trigger is pulled.  A few guns can go off without this, those are not safe to carry and usually involve antiques, home-grown-gunsmithing, worn out weapons, or other similar things none of which are safe to carry loaded in any way whatsoever.     If you gun does not fire when holstered,  you should be fine no matter what part of your body (and everyone else's) it sweeps while being worn.  I pocket carry... when I sit down, the muzzle points at other people in some places.   Its almost impossible not to have the business end point at someone (include yourself) sometimes if you are moving around being a human.   Bend over too far IWB and there it  is, near horizontal to the ground... pointing at who knows what.  Life happens.   So that means it is your responsibility to ensure the gun can't fire when holstered and in its carry location on your body.   This means working it out... practice draw / fire / reholster.   Impact test it.  Unload it and prove to yourself that it is safe.  IMHO that should be done for every gun, every holster, every change in location, etc.    You gotta know its safe.

Nope.  Strong side carry. IWB in the summer, OWB in cold weather.

Bersa Thunder is nice if you can handle the reverse direction of the thumb safety. I couldn't and sold mine. It's borderline too big for me to pocket carry.   The Sig P238 is a great little gun. It's a little slippery in my hand. I think I'd change the grips and add the extended magazine with the pinkie extension. I have a small hand and it still feels small in the grip.    If you're a big guy, you might consider the Taurus Slim 709.    Oh, and there's the Kimber Solo...    And to echo nightrunner, my pocket carry is the Kahr PM9.

Your choices diminish greatly only with a thumb safety. Consider a Kahr. It has a trigger very similar to a revolver in double action, long and heavy but also very smooth. It's not hard to learn to shoot it well but it will not fire unintentionally. You will most definitely be consciously pulling the trigger for it to fire

So, would this have stopped the "Fast and Furious" guns from crossing the border or would government gun running be exempt? 

Professional picture sent to me by Dave of our two tone Bladed TGO TR4. I absolutely love this one, Keep in mind you have until the end of October to pay for your orders, I guarantee you this knife will never be offered again, this will be a very special blade

This is a tempest in a tea pot... Everybody knows Kerry and Obama are tyrant wannabees... It's nothin more than red meat for the children... The UN aint gonna take anyones guns and international treaties do not trump the Constitution....   leroy

Either you support the 2nd Amendment for all or you don't support the 2nd Amendment.  We yell and scream that they are taking our God Given Rights away when they pass gun laws yet now we want to put qualifiers on them?  If your position is that these are rights we are born with, then why does it not apply to other human beings?

  The type he describes does not have a hole in the low point. The condensation occurs on the underside of the plastic. So rain would just collect and stay in the plastic itself, so you would have whatever that gives ya.   - OS

These solar stills work ok here due to the moisture but I've set one of these out before and while it does work, you will not be able to sustain yourself with it unless you make a whole bunch.  Humans need roughly 2.5 to just over 3 L on an average day, in emergencies you could survive with less but of course the more stress (sweat) the more water you will need.  If you had to stay put, I would set these up before running out to see what kind of volume you would get out of it/them.  On the plus side, these catch water rather well so when it rains it does double duty but you have to be ready to swap buckets out to catch as much as possible. 

There are a bunch of reasons why I will NEVER support CTD. I don't care if they have the cheapest guns, ammunition or accessories I will not buy because of what they did to me long, long ago. Back in 1997 I happened upon CTD and got their catalog to see if they had anything I wanted. I jumped on their website to place an order for some stuff. The order went fine no problems. Over a year later I was looking at my bank accounts and noticed "reservation rewards" for like $10 a month. I figured it was something my wife was part of so I never really looked into it. A few months later I asked her was the "reservation rewards" was for and she said it wasn't her. So I started investigating and called "reservation rewards" to figure out what I was paying for. It was some sort of BS thing to get discounts on HIGH dollar vacations, definitely something I would not sign up for because I could not afford a vacation nor would I ever pay to go to some third world country to "relax". They said I was signed up by CTD when I placed an order with them. I asked them for a refund because I did not join and they refused but they did cancel it. I called CTD and they were adamant that the "reservation rewards" did not come from them. Well a few months later I ordered from CTD again and once again I was enrolled in the "reservation rewards". I called CTD to ask why and they were, again, adamant it wasn't part of their website. I asked for a refund of the current and past payments and they refused. I called again and cancelled the "reservation rewards". I have not ordered from them since.   At one point I considered ordering a few things from them but then I heard this.   This was relayed to me by someone who I trust 100%. The owner showed up at a gun show, I think it might have been the Waco show or one of the other big shows. He went around and bought every single pound of a particular type of gun powder and paid for every purchase with a credit card. Then Monday morning he disputed EVERY single purchase he made for the powder. Most of the vendors didn't think it was worth the effort to fight it but one did. It took him several months but my friend eventually got his money back from the owner of CTD. But even so the owner of CTD probably made out with what was probably several hundred dollars worth of powder for free. And that is the biggest reason why I will not support him, his company or anyone affiliated with CTD. Crooks run in packs so I view anyone doing business with CTD in the same way I view CTD.   And because of that I would never consider spending one red cent with CTD. They are not a company that supports the shooting community, especially those who actually shoot for fun. They look for any excuse they can find to raise prices to panic levels hurting those who do not have sponsors and just shoot for fun.

For those of you not familiar with a Protech TR4,  these knifes are awesome they have a safety and a glass breaker built in, here is a short video of my Punisher model   https://youtu.be/L01suAPvvHs
