Welcome to Texas Roadhouse, my name's Dalton, I'll be your server tonight. What do you mean you don't like the steak. [URL=http://s36.photobucket.com/user/McGarrett50/media/roadhouse1_zps9pyltmzj.jpg.html][/URL]

My thoughts exactly. You have 2 nervous people in a tense situation and now have 1 person grabbing a loaded gun out of the other's holster and handling it. Looks like a recipe for trouble. I agree with the officer having a right to disarm but I don't think in this instance it was done very safely.

Glad this went smoothly. There are several different outcomes of grabbing for someone's carry gun that come to mind and none of them turn out good. Officer or not I don't think it's wise to go grabbing for a loaded weapon during what appears to be a routine traffic stop. If he had just robbed the Weigels or committed some crime he was really taking his time leaving, putting on gloves, getting things situated in his bag, etc. and none other other customers were alarmed or running around. From the video I fail to see any threatening behavior from the motorcycle rider and the tag thing seems like a joke. Had this been an actual robbery by a motorcycle rider the robber would have been long gone by the time this officer even got his blue lights turned on. Seems like the officer could have just pulled up and asked to see id and hcp before he even got on the bike instead of watching him the whole time and them pulling him over as he leaves. Just my 2 cents.

Anybody know anything about BCGO forums? I have been seeing a lot of stickers on the back windows of cars and trucks around my area with BCGO on it. They won't let you on their forum as a guest so i tried to register but is still says "pending staff approval" after 3 weeks. I guess I won't get to know the secret handshake.

I got my Izula from The Knife Connection: http://www.theknifeconnection.net/izula/. I ordered the TKC scales for it as well. I have been carrying every day since it arrived. Great knife.

Shoulder holsters with vertical drop in????
McGarrett replied to bersaguy's topic in Firearms Gear and Accessories
Black Hills Leather has a good selection of shoulder holsters; https://blackhillsleather.com/shoulder-holsters.html I have the BH7D, horizontal but they also have a few vertical models. Not sure what you price range is but the quality and fit was excellent on mine from Black Hills. You send in your measurements and they custom build it for you. The Galco Miami Classic and Jackass are good but they are horizontal. Check ebay for used ones. -
Looks like you got a deal. I get emails from Old Grouch Surplus sometimes. They usually have deals on jerry cans also, new and used, http://store.oldgrouch.biz/mijeca.html They have always been really good to deal with.

What can I tell my father?
McGarrett replied to glowdotGlock's topic in Handgun Carry and Self Defense
Find him a good used stainless wheelgun in 38/357. I bought a used stainless Ruger GP100 DAO a few years ago, perfect truck gun. There are a lot of them out there that were Canadian Mounted Police trade ins. -
My 2nd rifle after the .22 was a Marlin 336 in 30-30, paid $200 for it but it's been many years ago. One of my favorites is my Marlin 1894C in .38/.357, paid a lot more for it. Everyone needs at least 1 lever action.
