    Texas Open Carry Info Trifold/Brochure

    Sometimes being a linux geek has its advantages I grabbed the two versions of the bill and saved them locally. Using the diff tool I was able to identify that there is 140 lines changed between the two texts. I have the delta between the two saved to a third file if anyone wants to look just...

    Parking Lot incident

    Speaking of shooting VW's A Naval 16 in 50 caliber Mk7 gun shoots 2,000 pound rounds. This is about like shooting a VW. This will look familiar to Peter Nap as it is similar to loading his sidearms.

    Campbell Co Website in error concerning fingerprinting
