TGO David

Glock 19 in a Raven Concealment Phantom OWB this morning. Covered by a shirt of course. Seemed like a perfect light-carry setup for such extremely pleasant weather. Good accompaniment for a cup of coffee and bagel at Panera Bread while I wait for FedEx Kinkos to run some copies off for me.

New screen name huh?

A while. I honestly don't remember how long. TGO consumes every bit of my time now, especially since we're doing the Expo events.

I know the guy who runs that site. Honestly if it doesn't start seeing more traffic, I'm probably going to kill it. I'm really having to thin down on the number of projects that I have going just for the simple logistics of it.

I'm pretty sure my Bates are the 2269's ... steel toes. I wanted them for use around the garage and at the Expo while I'm overseeing vendor setups. Don't want someone dropping a pallet of ammo on my piggies.

We will definitely adjust the rules as necessary, perhaps before the event itself. Right now our desire is to accommodate those who wish to provide for their own legal means of self defense. BUT... we may be over ridden by our insurance company (whom we have yet to hear back from) so this may all be moot as they could very well stipulate that "No loaded weapons, period" become part of the rules.

Again, photos will be added. We have nothing to post pictures of yet. The map is supposed to look like that. If you do a zoomed out Mapquest map, it shows a boat-load of clutter. I wanted to only show the main arteries coming into and out of Winchester. Obviously if they want a more detailed map, they are going to use the GoogleMaps link.

I meant to send those pics last night and now I'm heading out to take care of some business today. I'll email them tonight. Sorry.

M&P 40 again today. M&P 340 in my pocket.

Most likely.

Why? I worked hard on that map. Plus there's a link to Google.

I was tempted to go with a IonBond finish on it but will probably just do it myself using Cerakote. Not really in a rush for that just yet.

I'm going to add a photo gallery. We'll put some pictures of the venue itself in there, plus some photos from the shows.

PM me your email address and I'll forward some ridiculously hi-res pictures that Brian Morrison @ MARS sent me of their different MSH designs. They might help you.

I picked up a pair of Bates boots at Hero Gear the last time I was down there, but they were a hair over your budget. Greenes was the first Nashville-area option that came to mind. You might also try Zappos.com since they do free shipping.

Thread renamed per request.

It's a Magwell. The quality is extremely good and so far the finish is holding up nicely (I sprang for the Cerakote option) but the wait time was really long. It would probably have been even more worth it had I gone for the MARS golfball treatment instead of standard checkering. I just wasn't sure if I wanted that look on this gun.

When I *do* rename threads, the SEO friendly url for the thread stays the old name. Just a cost of doin' business on the Interwebs.

I've been busy working on a better web site for the Mid-South Guns & Gear Expo events that I'm co-producing with Joe @ Hero Gear, and I'd like some feedback on it. Often designers/coders or jacks of all trades (like me) get a little cross-eyed when we are working on projects and miss obvious things. That's when getting more sets of eyeballs on it makes the whole process go a lot smoother. Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think: http://www.gunsandgearexpo.com You can Google "gun shows" to see what most of the other sites look like. Most of them are hideous, so the bar was set pretty low to begin with, but I still want constructive suggestions.

*sigh* Threads on TGO don't need to devolve to the point that we find ourselves pitted against one another. Closing this down.

Today is the Kimber Warrior 1911 inside a Raven Concealment Phantom OWB holster, under a loose T-shirt.

Honestly there are things that move that aren't legal to shoot that I'd like a crack at every now and again. Welcome to TGO. Enjoy your stay!

Indeed.

Or... it could be sold here on TGO. Just suggesting the obvious.

Welcome, Jamesshot. What all has Jamesshot shot, if a Jamesshot could shoot shot?
