I use a Galco Cop Series CAB2M. Very comfortable. Looks like a good thread to show off our P238's :)

BUMP :D

thanks for the likes  :woohoo:    feel free to add to it.     Quotes from pages of a 1912 Third National Bank book; It is not what you earn, but what you save that makes you independent.   The secret of success is not so much in knowing how to make money as in the ability to hang on to it. ​ The substantial wealth of rich people of the world came through their habits of saving.   Habitual savers can never be poor. In seasons of prosperity provide for seasons of want.   A good bank account is exceedingly comforting in times of need.   Do not hesitate to lay aside a reasonable portion of your income.   Where one man gets rich through hazardous speculation, a hundred get poor.   Where one mans stays poor, through the slow methods of saving, a hundred get rich.   The wise earner makes a present sacrifice for future comfort.   Shape your affairs so that you can deposit at least a small sum every week.   Deny yourself present luxuries that you may have them in plenty later on.   Lean not upon others. Rely upon your own strength.   Earn your own dollars. Save and deposit as many of these dollars as you can.   Educate your children to save by setting a good example.       .

Speaking of WalMart,  :D   Wal-Mart vs. The Morons  1. Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart Every hour of every day. 2. This works out to $20,928 profit every minute! 3. Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to St. Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year. 4. Wal-Mart is bigger than Home Depot + Kroger + Target +Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined. 5. Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's largest private employer, and most speak English. 6. Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world. 7. Wal-Mart now sells more food than Kroger and Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years. 8. During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains sought bankruptcy. 9. Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store in the world. 10. Wal-Mart has approx 3,900 stores in the USA of which 1,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago. 11. This year 7.2 billion different purchasing experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. (Earth's population is approximately 6.5 Billion.) 12. 90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of a Wal-Mart. You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that MAYBE we should hire the guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy. This should be read and understood by all Americans… Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!! To President Obama and all 535 voting members of the Legislature It is now official that the majority of you are corrupt morons: a.. The U.S.Postal Service was established in 1775. You have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.  b.. Social Security was established in 1935. You have had 74 years to get it  right and it is broke.  c.. Fannie Mae was established in 1938. You have had 71 years to get it right  and it is broke. d.. War on Poverty started in 1964. You have had 45 years to get it right;  $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the  poor" and they only want more. e.. Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. You have had 44 years  to get it right and they are broke. f.. Freddie Mac was established in 1970. You have had 39 years to get it right  and it is broke. g.. The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence  on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion  a year and we import more oil than ever before. You had 32 years to get it right  and it is an abysmal failure. You have FAILED in every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars. AND YOU WANT AMERICANS TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED  WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM?? 

That or.....   https://membership.nrahq.org/forms/donate.asp   BTW,  A professor of history turned to Twitter over the weekend to call for the death of National Rifle Association (NRA) CEO Wayne LaPierre, branding the gun rights group he heads as a terrorist organization. “[I] want Wayne LaPierre’s head on a stick,” Erik Loomis, a professor at the University of Rhode Island (URI), tweeted. It “looks like the National Rifle Association has murdered some more children,” he added.” Can [we] define NRA membership as dues contributing to a terrorist organization?” he  asked in a separate tweet. Loomis’ comments come on the heels of the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School, which left 20 young children and six faculty members dead.   http://www.campusreform.org/blog/?ID=4544

Hopefully a few more stories will start popping up.   http://trib.com/news/local/casper/casper-police-nail-salon-customer-packs-heat-gunman-leaves/article_e3236de2-6756-539a-92b0-ae3aaf64c900.html   http://radio.woai.com/cc-common/mainheadlines3.html?feed=119078&article=10644119

  On the flip side, send Gov. Haslam and supportive Reps. a thank you note.  :usa:

damn  :waiting:

OA is my favorite GS, I hope G&L in Greenbriar rebuilds with a larger floor plan with more goodies like OA.

Where is the pro-gun voice? The silent majority is still in mourning and I think they are the other half of the nation that didn't vote for BHO, therefore we are irrelevant. 

All is not lost. Unplug for a minute and take your mind off things;     Where did "Piss Poor" come from? Interesting history.They used to use urine to tan animal skins, so families used to all pee in a pot.   And then once it was full it was taken and sold to the tannery...  if you had to do this to survive you were "Piss Poor". But worse than that were the really poor folk who couldn't even afford to buy a pot...They "didn't have a pot to piss in" and were the lowest of the low.   The next time you are washing your hands and complain because the water temperature  Isn't just how you like it, think about how things used to be. Here are some facts about the 1500's   Most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and they still smelled pretty good by June.. However, since they were starting to smell, brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married. Baths consisted of a big tub filled with hot water. The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, Then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children.  Last of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water!" Houses had thatched roofs-thick straw-piled high, with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, so all the cats and other small animals (mice, bugs) lived in the roof.  When it rained it became slippery and sometimes the animals would slip and fall off the roof.. Hence the saying, "It's raining cats and dogs."   There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could mess up your nice clean bed. Hence, a bed with big posts and a sheet hung over the top afforded some protection. That's how canopy beds came into existence.   The floor was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt.  Hence the saying, "Dirt poor." The wealthy had slate floors that would get slippery in the winter when wet, so they spread thresh (straw) on the floor to help keep their footing.  As the winter wore on, they added more thresh until, when you opened the door, it would all start slipping outside. A piece of wood was placed in the entrance-way.  Hence: a thresh hold.   (Getting quite an education, aren't you?) In those old days, they cooked in the kitchen with a big kettle that always hung over the fire.  Every day they lit the fire and added things to the pot. They ate mostly vegetables and did not get much meat. They would eat the stew for dinner, leaving leftovers in the pot to get cold overnight and then start over the next day. Sometimes stew had food in it that had been there for quite a while.  Hence the rhyme:“Peas porridge hot, peas porridge cold, peas porridge in the pot nine days old." Sometimes they could obtain pork, which made them feel quite special.  When visitors came over, they would hang up their bacon to show off. It was a sign of wealth that a man could, "bring home the bacon."  They would cut off a little to share with guests and would all sit around and chew the fat.   Those with money had plates made of pewter.  Food with high acid content caused some of the lead to leach onto the food,causing lead poisoning death. This happened most often with tomatoes, so for the next 400 years or so, tomatoes were considered poisonous.   Bread was divided according to status.  Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the family got the middle, and guests got the top, or the upper crust.   Lead cups were used to drink ale or whisky. The combination would sometimes knock the imbibers out for a couple of days. Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial.  They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around and eat and drink and wait and see if they would wake up. Hence the custom; “holding a wake."   England is old and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people.  So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a bone-house, and reuse the grave.  When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive.  So they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the graveyard shift) to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be, â€œsaved by the bell" or was "considered a dead ringer."  And that's the truth. Now, whoever said history was boring!!!   So get out there and educate someone!   Share these facts with a friend. Inside every older person is a younger person wondering,  "What the heck happened?" We'll be friends until we are old and senile.  Then we'll be new friends.   Smile, it gives your face something to do!

Yep you're right, an armed society is a safe society. Just hate to think that it would come to that. We also can't identify 100% of the mentally ill or doing anything about them.   No worries though, according to our wonderful leaders, disarming everyone is the answer.

:up: I like it !! Nice coating and sweet grip  :up:   They are very nice shooters, love mine.

Perfect time to support Rush Limbaugh and his idea,  :D   http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2012/12/14/a_three_day_super_bowl_weekend           .

Thanks for posting, suggest everyone to copy and email to friends.

  Can't help you with advice except to talk to dealers and manufactures but I would like to hear if you have concerns about moisture and humidity in this outbuilding and if you addressed them?

  I doubt that.  No, what we should do is start killing the murderers and rapists in jails to allow more room for the petty robbers and thief's.

I agree, we are taxed too much. My post was intended to be sarcastic.  :shake:   Seems that all the schools problems comes down to more funding. The irony of this is BHO cuts this spending but yet has tripled our debt, refuses logical cuts and wants to tax and spend more.   Though your ideas seems reasonable but it brings the thought of living in a police state. Sure more armed citizens may help but recognizing mental illness and having the courage to address them would be more beneficial IMO.   As usual, the people who knew Adam L. KNEW he had issues. This nutcase could have just as well took his mothers car and mowed down kids on the playground, or in a mall, or busy a city sidewalk. He had plenty of time to think about what he was going to do when driving from his home to the school.   Mental illness is the root cause of this evil, resources would be better spent there.

We can call it anything we want to make the sheeple feel good but the bottom line is the funding....we must have tax increases to solve this problem.  :whistle:   http://www.washingtonguardian.com/washingtons-school-security-failure     Government officials told theWashington Guardian on Friday night that two Justice Department programs that had provided more than $200 million to schools for training, security equipment and police resources over the last decade weren't renewed in 2011 and 2012, and that a separate program that provided $800 million to put police officers inside the schools was ended a few years earlier.  

 That was the most racist video I've ever seen! Did you see that white man with a gun just shooting those poor young boys for no reason at all. Shame on you.  :drama:

The Sandy Hook School shooting will trump this just because guns were used. I would also speculate that if this story was brought up by the talking heads the solution was regulating dynamite, therefore we should do more regulating of firearms.   Damn, those were the days :usa: , imagine going to the hardware store and buying a stick of dynamite to use as you please.  :woohoo: Talk about limiting our freedoms, today you have to show an ID to purchase a can of spray paint.

OK, since yesterday it has been reported that the mother wasn't a teacher at the school and wasn't at the school, She was at home and was shot there. She was also a sportswoman who collected guns and enjoyed target shooting with her sons (oh my god what has our world come to!  :drama: ).   The father wasn't killed, this also was reported earlier and his older son Ryan was at work and hasn't been in touch with his brother since 2010.   Also reports of Adam being into the "goth" scene and was devoid of all reality due to playing video games.  :waiting:   As usual our MSM feeds us "assumptions" and opinions rather than fact, so what can we expect next? Meanwhile the left-wing moonbats politicize this tragedy and THE only fix for such behavior is more gun control.   I'm going to wait this one out and keeping the victims in my thoughts. Conservatives and all they stand for will be demonized regardless. We can also look for some type of gun control bill named after Sandy Hook School.  :-\
