    It's Benn Awhile...

    ...but some crybaby on Facebook was complaining that this forum was dead. So I guess I'll add some content. Oh wait....I can't. Mostly because between the time of my last post, and now, open carry has become so normalized that no one's given me the slightest shit over it here. Not cops, not...

    Carrying in PR...

    Has anyonehere actually done it yet? My parents live in PR, and I haven't seen them in about a year. I live in PA, open carry almost exclusively. I plan to go down to visit when funds allow. If I were to go, say, in August, would I have an issue bringing a firearm, and carrying on the island?

    Finally Getting My Guns Back....Eventually...Someday....

    some background: i was prohibited for a year by a PFA my ex filed against me, for alleged abuse. it was all lies, but i was given the PFA anyway, because it turns out you don't need actual evidence to file one. it finally expired in June, and i was issued a new LTCF, and was given a gun by my...

    Semi-Negative LEO Encounter

    I took a walk to Carvel yesterday with my son. When I say walk, I mean I walked, while he slept in his stroller. Four blocks and a lot of sweat later, I walked up to the window, ordered an orange vanilla swirl, and walked over to the bench off to the side. There were two local PD patrolmen...
