I use a holster that "looks" similar to the Serpa, but the trigger issue is not there. Your trigger finger presses the catch, but stays out of harms way. It's made in Israel by IDM, about $30 I believe. I have zero complaints. Also, adjustable for cant, and is available with other options. It's a paddle type that fits over the belt.

   Same here. Just one of my many mistakes.

Hadn't planned on heading up that way anyhow, so loss for me. Sounds like a politician grandstanding on a feel good mission.  JMHO

 I've always been partial to CCI, but never had an issue with any others I've tried. Just a personal thing, I guess.  Buy a box of 100, different brands, experiment, see if there is any difference. Not out a lot of money.

   Same here. Never owned what you would class as a self defense gun 'til I was grown, actually 'til I was out of the Army. Thing was, at the time, I belonged to a rescue squad in Westmoreland. During the big flood of '69, we went to Red Boiling springs, which had heavy flooding. Went there looking for bodies + guard patrol. About 3 AM, shot were fired up on the hill. At what or who, never knew. Bought a Colt 38 next day. Roiugh day. Got a new respect for the power of water.

Maybe put Ulysses S. Grant & Martin Luther King on all memorials nationwide, and see where the gripe goes from there.

   Obviously not on S.S. or VA, then.

That's true, but % wise it doesn't add up. Only a few places have it, so they jack up the prices, at least in this area.

It's probably the best one in this area. Ahead of Goodmans ( which isn't saying much ), It has the usual ration of junk stuff, as they all do. Adm. is $10, free parking, sometimes scarce. Worth a trip tho. If you looking for reloading supplies, see David or Sam (DLM on here ). He has the best deals, need to check with them if they are going to set up.

   And, there you have it. They're selling like hotcakes, price stays up & up &...........

Similar situation, off topic, but, why does it cost more to leave Ethanol out of gas than put it in?

 I still use an old lyman Ohaus I've had since the late 60's I think. Still works great. If I were going for a new one, the RCBS 505 would be my choice. JMHO    I also weigh each charge, necessary or not, no hurry. Just call me old school, I reckon.

 I've used it in training & practice, never had an issue. Lot cheaper than the good stuff. I"m in good shape, or I'd jump on it, if it was close to home.

Anyone going? R.K. Shows as usual. May be the last shot (pun ), for a while of any size. I'm planning on going, not sure which day as yet.  

I use the bucket & hand crank tumbler that came from Frankfort Arsenal with a dry tumbler kit I had before I went wet stainless. Works for me. There are many ways you can separate tho.

I've been reloading rifle & pistil for over 45 yrs. The only FTF I've ever had was a 30-06 Winchester factory round. My carry round in 40S&W and 9mm is Federal Premium LEO Tactical, that was our duty round when I was LEO. Still got 'em, why stop using them,. Works for me.  Comes down to preferences & opinions, we know how that goes.

Hey, if that's part of her normal "routine", then she has a legit concern. Just saying......

If they are going to go this route, they should take down all the Martin Luther King markers as well. Works both ways.

   You hit the nail right on the head. I've said all along, when Karl Dean tried to put the Fairgrounds ot of business so he could sell it off to his developer buddies, the new Mama bitch ( Barry ), is doing the same with a different tactic. Parking fee didn't work, so just stop the shows.  I agree with another poster, best thing would be for a private venue & tell Metro to shove it up their a--. Goodmans' show is not one of favorite places to go, seldom do, but the principle is the issue here. May go this weekend somtime, just because I still can. Sucks!!

Think I'll pass, my ass already has one hole in it, so far that has been enough.

 Not a bad deal I guess. Used them for a while on duty. Never had an occasion to put them to use, thankfully. We switched to somehting else, for whatever reason.  I'm well stocked on factory ammo, thanks for the tip.

I agree with all the previous posts, being a combat wounded 'Nam vet  myself. But it would be nice if the vets could have the day off from work, with pay, rather than the folks who work for some gov. agency, banks, and the few others that close on Vets Day.

I got the same packet, guess all did. I'll likely re-up for the 3 yr. deal, about all my budget will stand right now.
