TGO David

I've been considering a stake pocket mount for my truck, but using one would require me to cut a hole in the plastic trim cap that runs the full length of my bed rail. I need to price the replacement for that before I decide to cut or not.

Sadly there aren't many good books for it out there, and the classes tend to just get you up on the basics. 90% of what a good Citrix admin knows how to do, he/she learned over the course of actually doing it somewhere else. It's kind of rare to find technical disciplines where that is the case anymore, but Citrix is definitely one of them. I do some Citrix here at work from time to time and can easily see why this is the case. Our Citrix guys earn their keep.

TGO should be way down on your list of importance when you're facing things like medical bills. I had to clear away a mountain of medical bills a few years ago and it wasn't fun.

I've started using holsters from Occidental Leather Company as they are pretty damn close to the same design and quality of the VM2 with none of the wait time. The Phoenix Stronghold IWB is my favorite. http://www.bestbelt.com/product/gunleather/gun_holsters.html I now own one of these for pretty much every one of my carry guns.

Procedural issues like that are hard to enforce, though. Before you know it, you've got a dozen moderators for classified ads and each of them has a dozen or more threads they're trying to edit the title of with little help from the people who started them.

I'm always open to new ideas no matter what else is cooking on the stove.

I can't believe that in this day and age with so many better alternatives for not much more money, anyone seriously defends the Fobus line of holsters as being a worthwhile option. But I also can't believe that Uncle Mike's is still in the holster business either, albeit for different reasons.

I am open to this, however... there is a Classifieds script that can be added to the IPB forum software and I am leaning heavily toward implementing that once we convert. It totally changes the way that classifieds are posted on the forum and allows us to incorporate fields such as location.

Haven't changed servers yet but the new one is online and I'm in the process of testing it.

Exactly. I'd like it if those two clowns would get together and agree on a figure so that I could sell my house soon without totally losing my ass in equity.

Not surprisingly there aren't many Citrix admins looking for work out there. We have a fleet of them at my company and they rarely move to other places of business unless it's to advance themselves somehow. Good luck with your search.

Thanks again guys. It's reward enough knowing people enjoy the site and find it both useful and entertaining. Gun owners are good folks, by and large, and I'm happy to be able to offer this to the community.

I'll be taking the site offline briefly this evening sometime to try and repair that. Going to wait til later though, as the site seems to be doing well right now and it's pretty busy.

Thanks guys. You're all very welcome and I consider it more of a labor of love than a burden. Granted, it seems kind of burdensome when the site is running slowly -- but that's because I am very picky and HATE slow web sites. As for the new software, when we go that direction, the site will look different of course, but I am going to try very hard to keep TGO's characteristic appearance intact. I don't want to throw the baby out with with wash water. And yeah, currently I'm just going to move the site to a "different plot of land". The address will stay the same.

I disagree with this video's lumping Kydex holsters into the mix, particularly since Fobus are plastic and not Kydex, but you get the idea. Fobus rivet mounting is not secure. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDeKtgkZKmQ

I may take the server offline again tonight to repair and reindex portions of the database. That may resolve this issue.

Read the announcements, folks. Nothing is going to improve until I get us moved to the new server.

Yes, that is true.

Fobus holsters are almost a step above carrying your firearm in a paper sack. Almost.

The SERPA lock design encourages bad finger discipline when drawing your weapon. If I am going to use an active locking mechanism I would much prefer something that uses the thumb instead, because your thumb isn't going to be covering (and slapping at) the trigger once the trigger guard clears the holster.

<-- Still not a fan of the SERPA holster, for carry purposes, for obvious reasons. (Although they make reasonably good holsters when screwed to permanent / semi-permanent structures for house/office/vehicle firearms stowage)

Man, you are getting REALLY good with your photography. Nicely done. Far better than anything I can do.
