As a Ranger I never wore Armor, but I also got out 16 years ago.
If I ever have to BUG OUT my plan depends on stealth and evasion. I'm not including body armor due to weight. I would rather carry what I need to survive.
If SHTF I plan on disappearing rather than going into battle. My job is to...
+1 I agree with you on this.
My home defense plan does not include clearing the downstairs. The floor plan makes it just as dangerous for me as it would be for the BG. The master bedroom is the safe room for my wife (and grandkids when they stay over), I go to another room where I can stay...
In Ohio it comes up when they run your plate. The scary thing is it comes up in the same windows as wants and warrants.
The shoved over the hood comes from LEOs that do not like armed civilians. They decide to try to enforce the laws as they see fit. The Leo knew about the LTC from when he ran...
In Ohio we are required to have the gun holstered on our person, or in a closed glove box or console. What I do a lot of the time is use an ankle holster when driving and I strap it on over my pants leg.
There are a lot of reasons why people carry the way they do. It is just like choosing a gun or holster. You have to choose what works best for you. This is learned through practice and training. I normally CC myself, but there are occasions where I do open carry. IMO a person must use what is...
I have tried ankle and shoulder holsters.
I use an ankle holster when I carry a BUG, or when I carry in my work van. When driving it is very convenient to get to.
I like my shoulder holster in the winter as long as I am not going somewhere where I will have to remove my coat. It was...
I normally CC. I agree with having the element of surprise.
I do OC around the house or when working outside. To hell with a cover garment when working in the heat. Sometimes I do OC if I'm going to the local quickie mart for something real quick.
I own 2 C9's I teach CCW classes and I use them as loaner guns for the students that show up with 22's.
I have never had a problem with either except when someone would limp wrist it and cause a misfeed. One of them I can actually make one ragged hole in the center of the target with. It's very...
You are right Jeremy. I did this as well when I served. I also have some nieces, nephews, and friend of my kids who are serving or have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. I felt them out a little and it was 100% where I thought.
If something happens that would cause a civil war, there is something you need to consider. How many of our young men and women do you think would be willing to kill their families, friends and neighbors. I believe that most would switch sides and bring everything they could with them.
Remember guys, if your lady picks out a gun it is not a joint decision, it is her decision. The only time you should have any say is if it is a gun that is known to have problems. Then you may want to suggest that she try something else and explain why.
Just be glad you aren't with an anti.
I understand where you are going with this, but I know my house. I installed my doors and window in an over 100 year old house that is all oak construction. The downstairs windows would require a ladder to climb through, and I reinforced the door jambs and used steel doors. It would damn near...
