    Do you carry at work?

    With the exception of those who carry as part of their job, I'd like to see who carries at work regardless of what company policy is. I for one do carry about half the time. If some whacko gets laid off or gets a bad review, I don't intend on being the helpless target of their aggression. I...

    Taurus feedback?

    I've heard alot of negative feedback on these boards about Taurus guns. I bought a Taurus PT945 several months ago and I was wondering if anyone here has had any negative experiences with this gun. I've only put less than 100 rounds through it. I like the way it fires, but that's not nearly...

    Just a small pet peave of mine.

    Does anyone else find it annoying when people correct others for using the incorrect terminology? The reason I bring this up is, I just read another thread where someone referred to cartridges as bullets(and no it wasn't me). Then someone jumped in and corrected him that the bullet is only the...

    Who else has a Smartcarry holster?

    My Smartcarry holster arrived Saturday. I put it on with just shorts and hung around the house. My wife had no idea I had my PT945 on me. It's very comfortable, even when sitting. I tried it with jeans and it doesn't work very well. It would if you wore very loose fitting jeans. With jeans I'm...

    I've been a gun enthusiast and shooter for quite a few years now, but I've only been carrying for a year. This is due to the fact MA has too many hoops to jump through. I live in NH now and couldn't be dragged back to MA. I've been carrying in condition 3 because I worry about having an AD. I...

    My wife got her CHL today!!!! Another one for the numbers.

    To bad she has no desire to even look at a gun. She's neither pro or anti. Just indifferent. Ten dollars for 4 years in NH with zero hoops to jump through. Permit in 2 weeks max by law. The only thing she had to do was sign for it when it was ready. I figure it's worth the $10 to beef up the...
