    Richmond to use dogs to sniff for guns in Shockoe Bottom?

    I don't have a link on this yet, but I just heard the Mayor's press secretary say they will be using dogs to sniff for drugs and GUNS. Sounds like OC only down there now, since if you aren't concealing they should not have to ask if you have a concealed permit. And yet somehow I don't think...

    Good OC retention holster for Beretta 96 VERTEC

    imported post So I had a house gun I didn't carry much because it had limited capacity and was a pain to CC. Since then I have gotten some bigger magazines so I figured it would make a decent OC gun. Problem is I can't get a Serpa that fits the Vertec model, so I need something else. Anyone...

    Old Country Buffet

    imported post I see from a PA site that there has been quite a hubbub about guns at the Old Country buffet up in PA. From what I can gather, some LEOs illegally confiscated one or guns of some guys having an OC dinner. The Old Country Buffet management did not mind the patrons with guns, in...

    imported post I thought southern police would have a lot of them but only a very few listed on their website. I am tired of doing the untuck, and some of the ones I bought online don't work very well. I want to try a few out.

    imported post I happened to look at a campus map and it seems to me I am technically breaking the law if I go down Belvedere and turn onto Main whith a gun in my car, much less actually park and go anywhere there? Is there an interpretation of this law put in practice? Does it only apply to...
