    I'm a little bitter.

    My wife applied for her CPL last Thursday. I warned her that most of the state seems to take the full 30 days to complete and return her CPL, as that was my experience. Well she was all too quick to rub it in my face when her CPL was waiting in the mail for her today, 7 days later. Do you think...

    I may have "Warranted Alarm" today

    So I was walking into a store today, not paying much attention to the Gaurda truck outside. As I walk in, I see the armed guard walking out of the store and hear " a guy just walked in with a gun" come over his radio at the same time. His ass puckers, my face turns red, and all I can think to do...

    Flying with a firearm

    I have checked a firearm while flying before, so my question does not pertain to the process. I am curious if after checking your firearm, have you continued to wear your holster through security or did you check it as well? Last time I checked it, but would prefer to wear it.

    Eastern WA OC Report

    This seems to be a popular and effective thread topic for western WA so I think it is high time us dry-siders chimed in. This thread should be used for anyone in Eastern Washington to share their OC experiences from day to day. It does seem to be effective in encouraging the inexperienced and...

    OT: WA hands free law does not apply to police

    I am rolling down Broadway Ave in Spokane Valley tonight on my bike and pull up next to a local Police Officer holding a phone up to his head. I look at him, he looks at me, I hold my hand up to my helmet gesturing "Nice Phone" and he gives me the dirtiest look. The light changes and I follow...

    imported post I was visiting one of our local liquor stores OC this afternoon and was in the store for almost ten minutes when I heard the clerks cackling about something. Soon one of them walks up to me and says "We would prefer you not carry your firearm inside our liquor store." "O.K." I...
