      How much do you tell about your personal defense?

      I was the center of a frequently reported on armed defense situation. I was discussing concealed carry a couple months back with my dad, and he said something along the lines of "Gee, like there's anybody left in Indiana who DOESN'T know you carry." Haha

      Rob Pincus (ICE) and James Yeager (Tactical Response) on Open Carry

      The data only covers law enforcement officers and not all deaths among open carriers, so it was merely a datapoint concerning one facet of the OC community. To my knowledge there is no data regarding death amongst CCers who lost retention of their firearm, or it would be included for fairness...

      Rob Pincus (ICE) and James Yeager (Tactical Response) on Open Carry

      Directly from the FBI's latest published data (2010) of the 38 Law Enforcement officers killed by handguns that year, 7 were killed by their own firearms (18.4%).

      Rob Pincus (ICE) and James Yeager (Tactical Response) on Open Carry

      Of course, cops are routinely killed by their own firearms each year due to the retention issues inherent in OC. As others have posted, tradition and the nature of uniformed carry explain police OC. However, as a nonuniformed carrier, I personally prefer CC. You never hear of someone properly...

      What is your favorite HOME DEFENSE weapon?

      Handgun and Rifle sit/lean on my bedstand. Extra handgun magazine and 3 extra rifle magazines (30 rounds each) in waiting. Alarms on every window and door, and my bedroom door is locked with a doorstop alarm, so I should always have time to grab the SGL21. I'd stay in my room and call police...

      One eye or two?

      I close one eye if I'm using magnified optics, otherwise it's both eyes open. As far as actual self defense situations, I had the good fortune of having a laser installed on my handgun less than 24 hours prior, so both eyes were open.

      Rob Pincus (ICE) and James Yeager (Tactical Response) on Open Carry

      I don't understand the draw time argument for OC. If the bad guy already has a weapon out and pointed at you, you are going to get shot trying to draw...from OC or CC. If you aren't the bad guy's focus and he has a weapon and isn't pointing it at you, whether you OC or CC, get to...

      We Gun Owners Are Often Our Own Worst Enemy....

      I used to date a girl who went to ISU. ISU has crossings with signs that say "Traffic MUST stop for pedestrians." So the situation is this...though a pedestrian had the RIGHT to step out 10 feet in front of me while I'm going the speed limit (30mph), if they did so they would get smashed by my...

      Interstate Arms Hawk Model 982 Pump

      Saw this shotgun on cheaperthandirt's front page for $177. Apparently a Chinese knockoff of (and compatible with all the aftermarket gear for) the Remington 870. Clicked just out of curiosity of how little gun you could get for less than $200, and the reviews were exceptional. Checked a few...

      What handgun do you carry?

      4.5" XDM40. Pays to be wide! :)

      The "Best" .380

      My Ruger LCP probably saved my life. Concealable behind a pack of gum in my front pocket and I made a nice little Kydex trigger guard so I didn't pull a Plaxico at work.

      Does your carry gun have a light?

      I keep a nice LED with me all the time. At home, I have a battery powered lantern to throw into the living room that will make a nice silhouette (I live alone). Nothing attached to the guns right now.

      Burd Ford Robbed Sat. evening...

      There were four guys involved in a string of robberies that ended with one being shot at Kroger last December. Can't wait for the images from the security cameras to be released so I can see if these are the same guys.

      So the SHTF almost, here's what happened

      The electricity went out for a couple hours a few weeks ago. I ate all three of the neighbor children to survive. YOU WEREN'T THERE, YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND!

      TGI Friday's not carry friendly

      I carried in this same Friday's last week and nobody said a word.

      Iron Sights/Optics

      Did my first AQT today with a scoped SGL21 AK47. My eyes aren't in the greatest shape (waiting for my new prescription glasses and contacts to come in this week), but I look forward to trying irons as well. I was fortunate enough to research and purchase a taller scope mount so I can still...

      Stay classy target makers....

      That is simply awesome. I'm super pro-Zimmerman just for the fact that his jury pool has been slanted against him before he even gets a trial, let alone the fact that he was attacked by a criminal that should have never been in his gated community. I am thankful this happened 2 months after my...

      Carrying on the job

      From recent experience as a Kroger manager: Gun policies in the workplace are just that: policies. They do not carry the weight of law in this state. If you legitimately feel you need the firearm to be safe while you work, then carry with the knowledge that the company you work for can and will...
