    To those who attended the Marysville OC event last year...

    Okay, sounds kinda funny, but remember at the Marysville event, someone brought some absolutely AMAZING tamales from Mexicantown in Detroit? Anyone know where they got them? I now work in Mexicantown from time to time, and I'd love to get my hands on some more. I've tried a few places and...

    Four day OC experience

    So my wife and I went up to Mackinac to celebrate our 1 year anniversary together. We stayed in Mackinac City, but visited St. Ignace and Mackinac Island. I'm proud to say that I OC'd the entire 4 days we were up there, and had absolutely no problems what-so-ever, and even OC'd in two PFZ's...

    Can't decide...

    I recently picked up a pocket pistol (Kel-Tec PF-9), and I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what I want to do with it. I typically use it as my CC gun when I'm dodging in and out of PFZ's and need something small to leave in the truck where I can't legally carry, and throw in my pocket after...

My truck (2001 Ford F-150 5.4L) is having some intermittent starting problems. I initially thought it was...

    Does anyone in the Troy area reload?

    I keep hearing how damn cheap it is to reload. Does anyone live in the Troy area by chance that could show me the basics? I know I can watch a hundred videos online, but nothing beats first hand experience. Feel free to message or PM me. Next time you reload, maybe I'll come see how its done.

    Need links or a copy/paste of AG and MSP OC in PFZ opinion

    Simple enough.. I know somewhere someone's got a copy of the Attorney General opinion and the Michigan State Police letter regarding open carry in Pistol Free Zones. Can anyone link them or at least post them by chance so I don't have to dig heavily?

    Disclosure and/or giving ID

    I've never had a run-in with any LE that's given me any sort of grief, however if the time comes, I want to be prepared. I know most of you refuse to give ID and do not disclose when OCing. Since those tactics work and I don't plan on fixing it if it ain't broke, I've planned on following suit...
