Bags are great for traveling, or even a fanny pack. Makes it easy to leave your pistol in the car if there is some reason to. We were in Missouri recently, and while you can open carry and cc, there are certian restrictions on it. So, instead of having to pull a pistol out of your IWB and put...
I thought it was Glock that offered ran the program thru select dealers, a "public service" discount, and included such things as paramedices, firefighters and other EMS and LEO type things. Check again, maybe with Glock and see if you qualify. I know several other civilian types that have...
This isn't as hard to do as you might think, adjusting derailleurs. Stop at your library and get a copy of "Zinn and the Art of Bicyle Maintenance". Yes, you can adjust and tune your bicyle , and it's a good skill. But, on some bicycles, you will find that you spend more time tuning and never...
I picked up a med. ALICE pack the other day. Haven't really put it to use yet, but the basic nature of it appealed to me, as I saw it as being easily modified. I don't have a frame for it, as I wanted a ruck style bag. I have an industrial sewing machine so modification is easy for me. I...
Someone asked about bicycle. I've rode tracks on a bike, but alot of it depends on the ballast (volcanic rock fill) on the tracks. If it's newer, and filled in, a full suspension bike can move along fairly well. I don't know about bridges though. I grew up along a track and it's hard to walk...
I was supposed to meet up with my wife's uncle(he's a ham too) in Missouri, but we didn't make it out of town in time. Maybe nest year. As an aside, two weeks ago, with all that weather that rolled thru our neck of the woods, we had Sky Warn nets like, 4-5 days in a row. A good opportunity to...
Underscores the ability to stay in place during some events. Often times a SHTF is a time thing, if you can stay in a place with safety and stores, when it's over, your good to go. Snow, floods, and icestorms come to mind.
I'm not really sure where the "communism" kicked in? No mention of historical imperative, dialectic materialism, or even proletariat? Perhaps the term of the collusion of corporate media and what might be termed "the current administration" would be "fascism"? Not that the former Soviet Union...
I told my wife that she needs to get me one of these. She's a store manager, so I spend enough time around coffee. She's been talking about getting her LTCH now, too. It's all good and part of work/life balance!
:yesway:Excellent suggestion. I actually remember hearing Carla Emery on the radio when she was touring the country back in the day, trying to sell it. I was kinda cool to hear here. My mom has one of the old, multi colored paper ones. I found it interesting to hear Carla describe the...
I'm pretty happy with my wife. She likes to camp, hike, and hunt. We get along well, and have gotten more and more on the same page. I can't preach to her, but she's figuring some stuff out on her own. She really surprised me the other day by applying to the local Police Department. If she...
I was going to suggest this too. I live on the NW side of Monroe County and I've gotten down there in 45 min. I like it because it's cheap ($45 1st yr, $35 after that), and there are nice horseshoe berms for practice, and you can practice from the holster, ie, a lot more freedom. The have...
