Good article. I haven't stayed in a hotel in 20 years but good information

This is in response to the people that say that they Open Carry in rural areas or out in the woods. I have run into some very very weird people out here. I decided to Bush whack from St Mary's Falls (red dot). Over the mountain that I was standing on when I took the picture. Shortly after...

Stock Photo. I bought a 1991 Geo Storm in September of 1991 which apparently was the 1992 model year. So since my car was a last year's model I got it for $9,000. I think I put over 150,000 miles on it before someone rear ended my wife and totaled it in 1996. The insurance pay out was...

Does buying a car at a Buy Here -Pay Here place count? Either way it was a car. I bought a 1970 Dodge Duster in New Port Richey Fla that fell apart on me shortly after I bought it. I never did pay off the loan on that one. I bought a 1980 Volkswagen Rabbit at a Buy Here Pay Here place in...

Short answer, no. Loooooooong answer; Our biggest change was moving out of town and we didn't do that, that wasn't our accomplishment. The apartments that we lived in were five buildings with 18 units each. I'm going to guesstimate an average of three people per unit. Bearing in mind that...

There's such a thing as having too much. There's such a thing FOR ME as having so much of something that you can't really enjoy it. I've said this a whole bunch of times but I own less than 10 guns. I shoot less than four of them with any regularity and remember I have a range on my property...

Not in retirement For a good portion of my gun owning life I was an accumulator. I don’t remember how many different calibers I had or how many different makes or models of guns but it was enough that I couldn't afford what I considered an adequate number of magazines or ammunition per gun...

GM made approximately 490,000 M16s during the Vietnam war. If I remember right they made M3 grease guns during World War II. IBM made 1911s Rockola (Juke Box) made some M1 Carbines. I don't recall having an M16a1 ever fail to fire on me BUT I never fired one any place but a qualification range

I am in no way disputing this article. I remember during the Obama years that several companies were making AR pattern rifles and I remember hearing news reports that they were all back ordered because their suppliers of the individual parts couldn't keep up with demand. When I worked for...

If we get gas every three weeks it's a lot

Gas station parking lots are By Definition Transitional Spaces The only person I'm aware of who has compiled any database on Citizen Defender shootings in the United States is Tom Givens. His database is 66. One person was caught off guard and robbed. he gave up his wallet and the robber...

Everything's a trade off. Last island, closest to the entrance is the shortest route out of the gas station. We generally fill up at 3/4 of a tank of gas and we do that on our own time schedule. I have the luxury of being able to skip the crowded gas station to go to the one that's not...

When I was working nights I made a point of fueling the company car at a gas station in the middle of nowhere. It's funny, I drive past one of them on my way home now. When I went there it was 10 miles out of town. Now it's solidly in town. We get gas on the way out of town. The gas station I...

Weird. I'm sure you know the basic load is seven. You'd think they'd ship them with 7

Why five?

I've said this before, the older I get and the more time I spent carrying a gun because I had to, the less interest I had in guns. Basic training taught me what a pain in the booty an M16 was. Being in a unit that lost in M16 in the field in Germany really taught me what a Pain in the booty...

Good to know. John Corriea has studied tens of thousands of videos of Citizen involved self-defense shootings. I think he said the number was greater than 40,000. He also says that he is never ever ever seen a video that includes a citizen reload. I believe him and I believe Givens. I'm...

No you don't

I can only tell you what he said. You'd have to ask him what he meant by it. Not a response to the above quote. I've said this before I worked as a security guard for 15 years. For almost 7 years I worked on this site. For anybody that's familiar with Colorado Springs it's a propane storage...

I don't disagree with you. The thing is I already have the setup of the Glock 19 and the holster and the Dual magazine carrier and all of the above. Since I have all that stuff and I'm used to carrying it why not continue to carry it? If I had nothing and was starting over again from...
