Also looks like it can serve multiple purposes. I'll be traveling to the UK next year, looks like a good discreet carry option for cash, passports, etc.. My only minor concern is that it looks to be pretty supple, like glove leather-- which leads me to concerns with how long it will last in terms of serviceability.   Thanks for posting--On my list now.

Given the description of your wardrobe limitations and the firearm in question, pretty sure this "Head of Security" has no real concept of what "concealed carry" entails. Ask him if a simple slingshot hanging in your back pocket a' la "Dennis the Menace" is acceptable...

The internet is forever. Think before you post. :foot:

The way I deal with Facebook is "not at all". Don't have an account. Don't need the drama from "friends".

  Agreed. I firmly believe that Publix laces its chicken with some sort of addictive substance. :yum:

I guess 15204 puts me pretty low in the pecking order... :ugh:

Wow... this thread has taken a pretty wicked turn since page 1. Who knew that the basic principles of common courtesy & etiquette were considered such a burden for so many folks? It takes zero talent and little effort to be an asshole. On the other hand, a little forethought and tact go a long way in promoting civil discourse, which is so much more substantial and rewarding in terms of real communication. I see no reason as to why folks think the OP was out of line in his initial request-- it really ain't that difficult, folks.

I have one that I use pretty regularly for concealment in the spring & summertime. Mine shoots low... from a bench rest. I thought it was just me at first, but having two other people shoot it from the same rest with very similar results confirmed that it was not just operator error on my part. Also, if you have large hands like me, The thin grip (less than one inch wide) may give you problems if you "over-grip" it. When i first got it, I was pulling everything to the left of center... correcting my positioning on the thin grip helped fix this... but there is a bit of a learning curve.   At the Kel-Tec forums, these pistols do have a bit of a reputation for shooting low-- Kel-Tec sells a shim kit for the rear sight, but I made my own to correct the issue. even after elevating the rear sight a bit, I still have to aim for the target head to hit the chest-- center-mass aiming results in groin shots.As long as I know that, I'm comfortable with it. Never had a feed or reliability issue though, have about 350-400 rounds through mine. YMMV.

  Kwik? Maybe before his HCP was pulled?? :D  :jester:

  Same here. :up:

No worries here... I spend as much (if not more) time outside in the fall & winter than I do in summer. Prefer the colder seasons, actually. Equates to less computer time for me during those months, so less chance of me showing my ass. :wave:

Update on this subject-- not sure what happened, but it looks like the merger deal fell through...Outpost is still Outpost, and EW is still EW...   http://www.dnj.com/story/money/business/2015/09/12/barrett-retains-ownership-outpost-armory/72091020/

Welcome to TGO, and soon, to the great state of Tennessee. You don't happen to play Irish fiddle or accordion, do ya? My Celtic band of 22 yrs. is lookin' for a good fiddler or accordion player who's got the feel for traditional Irish & Scottish tunes! :cool: :cheers: 

  Until there is a legitimate change in the apathetic attitudes of the general populace (e.g-- voting in more statesmen and fewer "politicians" to the Legislative and Executive branches of gov't), I doubt that there will ever be another "true conservative" appointed to SCOTUS in our lifetime. The last strict constitutionalist appointed was Clarence Thomas, and that was 1991, so I wouldn't hold my breath for the next one. The deck has been stacked for awhile now-- witness John Roberts-- who was advertised as a "conservative" when he was confirmed... however, many of his crucial vote positions reveal otherwise. Alito and Scalia are often slightly more conservative in their judicial reasoning, but not by much, and even they have been prone to lapses of constitutional judgement from time to time.   The theoretical concept of a "balanced court" (4 libs, 4 conservatives, and 1 middle/moderate) is not completely flawed-- it helps to insure that the views of most people are represented at some point-- but the court does not exist for "representation" of the populace-- it exists to interpret written Federal law primarily on the basis of constitutionality. However, The Roberts court has tended to veer away from strict scrutiny through the lens of constitutional law and has slowly moved towards legislating from the bench... such tendencies make SCOTUS more like an oligarchy and less like an actual judicial body. When the court acts on "feelings of what is the right thing to do" rather than interpreting written law (or the absence thereof), then credibility for jurisprudence is severely damaged.   I only need to point to the recent decision regarding gay marriage to illustrate this. Whether I agree with the decision or not is irrelevant... however, the method, procedure, and reasoning for arriving at the decision is rather questionable, since marriage has long been an individual state issue, and the Federal government as we know it has never had real jurisdiction over it. In this case, using the guise of "equal protection" is a sham if the same equal protection is not afforded to ALL consenting adults-- regardless of their sex, relationships, or preferences for single or multiple spouses. Pandora's Box has been opened on this one-- and there are already cases moving forward regarding multiple spouses and incestual relationships (even if only for the convenience of hassle-free property inheritance) under the premise of the decision on gay marriage.   As you say, it's a dice roll-- but it's been that way since at least the Warren Court. In this day & age, The phrase "Take it to the Supreme Court" should be exercised with the same caution as the phrase "Please castrate me."  One should never be too confident no matter who is in charge of the court.   Government Statists are enemies of personal freedoms no matter what party they belong to, and no matter at which level of government they operate-- and unfortunately, they ain't going away anytime soon.

Excellent, and very detailed and logical. Bookmarked also. Thanks. :usa:

  "Same with most of Newport News."   You're not just whistling "Dixie" there, brother. Newport News is first cousin to E. St. Louis. No reason to go there unless you are unfortunate enough to live there.

Hope you're not installing these on your Glock-- it takes some rather specialized equipment to sight them in...

Evening update to the story posted on WKRN's website.... it's as I figured in my previous post-- excessive  hand-wringing by hoplophobes and gun grabbers with no basis in credible studies, statistics or facts, but plenty of emotional "what-ifs". And wonder of wonders, Memphis Senator Lee Harris WAS there, as I predicted-- leading the charge. Of course, Speaker Harwell's response when questioned on the matter was total spineless jellyfish material, as expected. Gun owners have ZERO reason to trust her... but we already knew that, didn't we?   Here's the link: http://wkrn.com/2015/08/13/guns-in-parks-changes-explored-on-capitol-hill/

None of the people listed are legislators... judging by there affiliations, they are mostly known gun grabbers. If there are legislators there, they probably didn't have the stomach to list themselves... Except for maybe Harris out of Memphis, but even he's not on the list. This smells fishy.   This is gonna be real "productive"... :bs: :waiting:

  You're welcome... one of the best things about Blockade Runner is that they have just about everything in stock in the store that is listed online... so the e-store and the "real store" selections are pretty darn close. And yes, they do have an FFL, and often have a small but very random assortment of real firearms in stock.

  Same here-- with one exception. Brown recluses die on the spot. Everything else in spider family gets a free ride to the great outdoors.

  Since it came from Pennsylvania, they were probably trying to ship it to LafayETTE instead of LaFAYette... I'm sure that you know how everybody pronounces it "incorrectly" outside of Tennessee... :rofl: :rofl:

  Ummm, I believe the preferred term these days is "living historian" as opposed to "reenactor". :whistle:   That being said, if you live in Nashville, you are only about 45-60 minutes away from one of the best stocked Civil War sutlers in the south--   http://www.blockaderunner.com/   They are located right off of I-24E between Bellbuckle and Wartrace, and are very well stocked on just about everything you could imagine for Civil War Buffs... both Union and Confederate gear, uniforms, accessories, relics etc. Well worth the drive for anyone interested in this stuff.   What's more, they are very 2A friendly and welcome legal licensed carry-- with a "FIREARMS PERMITTED" gun-in-green-circle (the opposite of a gunbuster sign) sign right by the front door! :up: And no, I do NOT work for them, but it's one of my favorite places to spend a lazy Saturday.   If you visit the store, you can get a new artillery shell jacket for around $120-- usually they have several sizes in stock, so that's about half the cost of a custom-make jacket. Not sure that you'll find a new one cheaper than that online, besides, better to keep your $$ in Tennessee instead of sending it to some Yankee up north...
