    It changed their minds very quickly....

    Thank God I didn't have to go through with it all the way.... Let me begin by saying that I OC when I am by myself and CC when I am with the missus. She "feels" that the OC brings a lot of uneccessary attention to us and she hates any type of attention. I've tried discussing with her the...

    Actually two... I've got a co-worker that swears, (SWEARS) up and down and all the way across the board, that "in addition to having an LTCH, you need a PERMIT to own a gun in Indiana." He says "Thats the way it's always been!"... I think he's wrong, but can't find anything that says so....so...

    And was also shocked a bit by what she said.... So my lady and I went to eat at a buffet here in Indy. The owners know me by sight because I OC/CC and my Desert Storm Veteran hat, plus I always tip and shake hands and talk with them. Very good people and good food, well appreciated. So while...

    Kel-Tec PNR30 for a lady?

    Recently my lady has been interested in getting a Kel-Tec PNR30 as her weapon of choice. Since I am unfamiliar with this brand and weapon I thought I would ask the following questions and get some more info. She likes the idea that it has 30 rounds and can fire as fast as she pulls the...
