    Don't Take It For Granted.

    imported post Well I've been in Hawaii for about a month (without my guns) and I'm starting to miss Idaho. I feel somewhat helpless walking around hoping I won't need to defend myself. Never knew how good I had it back home.

    Restroom Etiquette

    imported post I'm not trying to get too personal here, but I was curious how you folks go about "powdering your nose" while carrying. I thought I read a story on this forum where a guy was pointing his gun in the air and fired off a round (no pun intended) while in a stall. As I said, not...

    OC in the woods

    imported post I just had a thought I wanted to run by everyone. Most of my friends own firearms, and a few of them are also hunters. I am the only one of them with a CWL, and the only one out of the group that carries openly. To my knowledge none of them even keep a pistol "under the seat" when...
