    OT -- Mayor Knuckles office opposing nationwide CC reciprocity

    imported post Looks like Mayor Knuckles is trying to stir up more bad sentiments about CC -- after all, those legal guns carried legally by law-abiding citizens are a major cause of gun violence, right? (Sarcasm!!) Anyway, a friend gave me a copy of this email that was send out by the mayor's...

    Positive interaction at Lacey Home Depot

    imported post This morning at the Lacey Home Depot, in the checkout line. I'm OCing my Officer's 1911. Nobody has said a thing (can't remember the last time anybody did), but it did seem that the associate in the paint section was especially concerned I was finding everything OK. :D A guy...

    Do you carry a gun?

    imported post So the doorbell rings a few minutes ago. It is one of my neighbors, wanting a signature for the home owner's association. I still have my 1911 on, and we stand and talk at the door for three or four minutes. I notice the dog has run outside, so I walk out onto the street and call...

    Somewhat OT, but self-defense related

    imported post I know this isn't OC related, but I think any time our constitutionally protected right to self-defense is encroached upon, we should be concerned.

    Help Obama keep kids safe from guns

    imported post (I knew that headline would get attention!):D I'm thinking of new federal legislation, and since our state's senators are 1) so concerned with gun safety, 2) realize (hopefully) that stolen guns are the most common source for criminals, 3) understand that property crime will...

    CPL Renewal

    imported post Has this happened to anybody else? I went to renew my CPL at the sheriff's office today. Finished all the paperwork, and gave them my check.

    Had a pistol pointed at me today . . .

    imported post So I went to Cabela's this afternoon, thinking it was time for a new toy. I had been looking at Kahr pistols for those times when deep concealment is the only option. I was carrying my Officer's .45 as I normally do away from work. I went with the PM40 -- such a nice little...
