So, I received a bit of a spanking (yes, I enjoyed it) for wrongful placement of this post. I have hopefully made necessary corrections:

Low Light Pistol
I’m writing a review of an upcoming course that I have taken a few times from ACT, out of Terre Haute, IN. I must include a brief bio of myself before continuing so that I may give due credit to the ACT crew and you may all prejudge whether I could have anything of value to...
I carry a S&W 617 10 shot 22lr often when cutting timber as it is ideal for that environment. From time to time I will end up in public with that same firearm and am very cautious as I understand I am significantly handicapped should I need to use it.
