I really don't think body shape has anything to do with it. I've used both and the MTAC is infinitely more comfortable no matter if we're talking about wearing it in summer, winter, fat or thin months. I tend to wear an undershirt no matter whether I am wearing a t-shirt or a polo over it, so maybe that's why my leather MTAC has never gotten slimy or sweaty or whatever. You couldn't give me a CTAC if an MTAC was available for the same firearm.

Highly unlikely, at least for the first few months while I gauge our bandwidth usage on the new server. I don't think people really understood how much that thing ate up bandwidth when we used it before.

It's already been posted.

I've sworn by Comp-Tacs products for years. In my opinion and as a long time user of both, the MTAC has rendered the CTAC obsolete. I don't understand why they keep selling the CTAC save for the fact that they are wary of producing the MTAC for firearms having manual thumb safeties.

That's very slick.

Sounds cumbersome to draw if it's your first line of defense.

Let me be clear about this... TGO does not "support" PayPal. We use them as a service that makes it convenient for our members to contribute to the site. If a more "gun friendly" alternative were available that provided the same convenience and the same level of service that PayPal does, we would certainly investigate using it. This whole argument is silly. Those of you who don't wish to use PayPal are more than free to do so. If your dissent is based on a fear of them losing your money or compromising your financial security somehow... that's a matter that is personal to you and involves a decision that only you can make. But if your dissent is based on the notion that they are staunchly anti-gun, you should look closer at what their regulations really are before making a knee jerk decision. As others have pointed out, they are not anti-gun. They do, however, have restrictions on what may be sold based on the fact that their service crosses countless jurisdictions with conflicting laws. I don't blame them one bit for following the advice of their attorneys and setting the restrictions to the tightest level that provides them maximum legal protection. My rights as a gun owner end where their rights as a business begin. They are well within their rights to impose whatever restrictions they want. I either accept those terms and use their service in accordance to their bylaws or I sit around and moan about how I won't use Paypal because they aren't as gun friendly as I am. Which of those two is more productive? Which of those two teaches someone a lesson? That said, this thread is done. The few voices of reason in it have once again been overshadowed by the specter of FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt).

Mike, stop by the house sometime soon. I'll let you see the Bersa 380 that I own and a J-frame S&W revolver. I think the decision will suddenly be a lot easier for you.

Do not use Comcast email. Period. I have had them block legitimate, very important emails as part of their horrible, overbearing effort to block spam. Our emails will almost never make it through their filters.

Check your ISP's spam filtering.

Most people aren't perceptive enough to notice that you're carrying openly, especially in a place like HH mall. But if you do, I highly suggest a holster with active retention for the firearm (i.e. SERPA, thumb strap, etc.) to keep one of the many opportunistic thieves in that place from picking your gun. One of the first things I do before going into HH mall is to make sure that I've moved my wallet to my front pocket where it's harder for someone to pick off as they brush by.

It would be a little more polite to ask before linking to other forums in your signature. Especially when that other forum's lineup is a fairly blatant ripoff of our own. If you wish to discuss it further, PM me. In the meantime, removing it would be nice.

Thanks... just fixed those two, but it would be better if we would start a new thread devoted to bugs and such rather than muck up this thread with that sort of thing. I'll split these off from this thread and start a new one.

No, I'm pretty sure you make an effort to point it out every time you post by virtue of your signature.

Are you sure you admin another forum? The emails in question are those you would receive were you to subscribe to a thread or a forum and request that the TGO forum email you when new threads or posts were made. In addition to other things.

Those of you who have already replied, please vote in the poll at the top of the thread also. I just added it to help me get an "at a glance" feel for things. Keep in mind that a vote for "C" is not a bad thing; it just means it was working good before and is still working good now.

Now that we have had about 24 hours to operate with TGO hosted with our new web hosting company, tell me what you think about it. How fast does it respond to requests for new pages? How fast do the pages load? Are you getting the appropriate emails from the server? Please keep your comments relative to the way things used to be on the old server. If the page loaded slow on the old server because you're on a dial-up or other slow connection, you should not assume that this move will have suddenly made things faster for you. Thanks.

It's seriously wishful thinking to believe that gun or gun-related purchases will pull our economy out of the toilet. The economy is in a death spiral and it's going to take a concerted effort from all industry sectors to avert a total collapse. Right now there is a vicious cycle at work: Companies are laying off employees to "cut overhead". These displaced workers are filing for unemployment and overtaxing the unemployment system. They are losing their homes, which is further destroying the mortgage lending industry. They are losing their cars, which puts a burden on the banks and lenders. This also impacts the sale of new cars, which hurts automotive manufacturers and the industries that support them. These unemployed workers are also cutting back on their own spending, which kills the retail sector. Not to mention the negative impact it has on their individual credit ratings. It goes on, and on, and on. So no... buying more guns won't stimulate the economy. But that's never been a good reason to buy more guns anyway.

A map? You must have been sent to our Dora The Explorer site by accident.

Welcome to TGO. The answer to this and a lot of other questions can be found by doing a simple search of the existing threads. As member Steelharp said, the exam is very easy. Just pay attention, take notes if you feel lead to do so, listen to the instructor and relax when it comes time to shoot. You'll do fine.

Please take a few extra moments to give your threads more descriptive titles. I edited this one for you.

Blue Jeans Cables has great pricing also. But if you're in a pinch and you have a SAMS Club membership, you can get 1080p compatible HDMI cables there for fairly cheap. I think I gave $16 for my last 8ft cable from them.

Clear your cookies. Clear your DNS cache. Reboot your computer. Those things typically resolve TTL issues on various records that may periodically point you back to the old server.

A couple of late nights and a little work on it during some down-time on Christmas.

By the way, I think that member NuTcAsE was the first person to see the new server according to my records. Congrats?
