  1. I recently reupped for another 5 year membership at the NRA.  In conversation with them the person on the line said "be aware the AG of New York has currently a lawsuit to dissolve the NRA"   I said I understand.  I assumed she was telling me no refunds.

  2. Yes, simply switch to 4-5 position.  Re-check in mirror.  Big difference.  Another benefit is that it appears that you are retrieving your wallet when presenting firearm from 4-5.

    Goodrich and Gould black leather belt is as dressy as any, it's thick, so be aware of belt loops, they ain't spec'd

    Tried the shifting to the 4-5 today and it worked great even with an inadequate belt.

    Dress belt from Goodrich and Gould is on the way.

    Thank you very kindly fellas.

  3.  I wonder if there will come a day  the pocket for the hymnals on the backs of the pews, will have a built in holster?   From what I've seen there aren't that many young people in church these days. Would require a lot of re-holstering which has its pardon the pun drawbacks.   From what I've seen people sit in the exact same spot every Sunday.  Maybe just where the security teams each set?   Or some variation of the idea?

    Gregg in your situation I understand.  That is great to hear. I have visited several church's since I moved here in July and my experience is very few aren't on social security.  In my church the opposite. Most are on social security.  Don't have any trouble finding a seat either.  Gregg has good news!!  

  4. I assume some or many cc with a jacket and tie.  Just the other day I looked in the mirror for my final check before leaving and noticed what looked like a bread basket on my hip under my jacket.  EZ 380 OWB.  I wear and will be wearing a nice clothes for the foreseeable future . Looking for guidance on how to address this.  Tweak my current  3-4 o-clock to 4-5?   Carrying one in my slacks pocket is difficult as I have no hips and my slacks would be around my ankles.  Even on the hip I have to pull my dress belt purty snug as it is.   Are there posts somewhere already to address this issue which may by the way be affecting some others who will benefit from the info?  Thank you very kindly for any helpful info provided.

    mmirob      I will try adjusting to 4-5 as a quick and easy test.

    peejam       Leather slide holster by G.  D'ambrose of Tombstone.    Yes, what I saw in the mirror was "absurdly obvious"   A howitzer on my hip. Thus the impetus to make a change.

    Defender    I am not sure if I'm ready for suspenders😬

    Grayfox      As mentioned above a brown leather basket weave slide holster  by G. D'ambrose of Tombstone AZ.  Picked up on one of my motorcycle trips to the west coast.  Yes, my standard dress belt needs upgrading.

    A.J.             I looked at Goodrich and Gould and those are and upgrade.  As you pointed out to pay attention to the basics and measured my belt loops.  The site says they are 1.75in belts and my loops on my slacks measure 1.75.   

    I will keep you informed.  There may be countless young men that are helped by the guidance above.   What more noble thing than to "always be a teacher"?

    "The moisture in the crawlspace really isn’t bad but some of our closets would get mildew"

    Would it be prudent to get a moisture meter and get some actual test numbers?   Before and after the fix.   Documenting the results.   Test results before and after in the closets also.

  6. I don't know the answer.

    Brings to mind a whole myriad of questions.  Assuming the security teams are well trained, after that, how many armed citizens of varying degrees of training and more so temperament do we want drawing and aiming a pistol in a crowded room?  So far I haven't seen many crowded rooms in church yet.  I am just visualizing shots fired in a crowded room and 30 people jumping up and drawing firearms not knowing who or where the shooter is.  Again the varying degrees of training and more so temperament and discipline.  Am I over thinking it?

  7. I recently (July 2019) moved from Northern Indiana to Marion County.  A friend was here over the holidays visiting and since we have no family here looked for something to do. We decided since your great weather here to hike the trails in some of the local wilderness parks.  Wow!!   On 4 different days we hiked Denny Cove falls,  Foster Falls, Stone Door/Savage Gulf and Little Cedar Mountain (a TVA) area.   What a gift from the creator.  Ranger Baxter at Stone Door provided that the designation of "wilderness area"  is important in that there are no provisions for keeping you safe.  You are on your own if you go there and accept the risk.  Observation areas with sheer 200 ft drop offs and no railing.   No railings in the wilderness.  Anyway I hope to spend much of the winter here hiking the area trails embracing the grandeur since the winter weather is so much better here.  May need to find a local hiking group in the Jasper/Kimball area.   Best regards to all.

  8. Greg that is fantastic. I'm thinking it is due to good judgement, planning and sticking to a plan. I am very happy for you.  You ask for guidance?   One thing I was told was to have your part time job or volunteer work going for 6 months to a year before you do the final good by.   I was told not to  due the typical " I am gonna take a month of then look for a job" thing.   I hope this helps and nice to hear sticking to a plan pays off.

  9. Since Rural King made the very public stand to continue selling firearms and ammunition I thought I would spend some money in support of them.  The website says they are sold out of much of what they sell. I specifically looked at 380 and 223.  I didn't look at all the calibers. Did others feel the same way or maybe those people hoarding the supply, or what?  Or were they sold out of the stuff before they made the public statement.  They website says still sold out. Mostly of the bulk boxes of 500 and 1000.  What gives?    Balderdash I say!!

    I should have been more specific. I was looking more at the bulk boxes of 500 or 1000.

  10. I wonder if Colt is still teetering on bankruptcy and they finally had to do  something different.  Pull in the reins and make what is profitable.  Seems like everybody and their brother makes an AR style and for much cheaper. It would make sense to me the market would be soft for them. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and watch going forward how their financial situation goes.  At some point you gotta do something different?

    Education

  12. Learned to drive a manual transmission bug out in the east pasture.  Oh boy, those were the days.  Ours was a little earlier than the 72 your talking about but ours took a beating and never quit. Only thing about it in Northern Indiana in the winter you had to drive and scrape the windshield at same time. Steer scrape shift steer scrape shift.  You get the idea.   Not a bid deal here I am guessing.
