LOL. When you go to the website, it says in big red letters, "WE APPRECIATE YOUR BUSINESS"..... apparently NOT!!!

I don't know what the chances are of one ever needing to use their weapon in self-defense, but let's say that it's 2%. Pretty small odds that you will ever have to defend yourself. But we know that it happens. So, if someone finds themselves in that very small 2% they're either going to have a weapon or wish they had one. Statistics don't matter when it's happening to you. Seems to me that the same rule applies with the ability to stop an attack. Your chances of being confronted by some crazy on PCP, a gangbanger, or a meth-head is pretty small, but if you find yourself in that very small percentage, you're going to either have sufficient fight stopping capability or you aren't. I believe I'll err on the side of caution. Jeff Cooper said something to the effect that he didn't choose his carry weapon to be comfortable, but comforting.

It's newsworthy because she's a Republican. The article doesn't say why she pulled her weapon out, but if it was simply to show someone her laser, then I think it was dumb, especially with a reporter around.

Interesting how some consider the meth-head or the gang banger "mythical", just because they have never encountered one, but watch them puff their chests out when someone challenges their rationale for carrying a weapon and calls them paranoid. To the one who doesn't believe in carrying, the bad guy is "mythical", just because they have never encountered any kind of trouble themselves. Q: What's the definition of "paranoid"? A: Someone who is more prepared than you.

Yep, but some are just more of a compromise than others.

It's always interesting to me how making a generic comment will put some people on the defensive. But if you're comfortable with what YOU carry, then what I think shouldn't matter, should it?

I do believe I said "to each his own".

I just really don't get why people are willing to take chances with their personal safety. To each his own, however.

As long as I've been here, just about every single thread has taken several different turns from the original topic, just like normal conversations do.

Bachmann has the guts to take a stand, when so many politicians are mealy-mouthed regarding moral standards. If she gets the GOP/Tea Party/whatever nomination, she will get my vote.

^^^^^^^^ THIS...

Not at all; my safety and the safety of my family are more important to me than getting a buzz.

When I made the decision to carry, I gave up drinking. Problem solved.

Interesting to me that he keeps saying that the results are skewed because of the different types of ammo used (FMJ vs. JHP), and that he doesn't believe some of the results, but then somehow comes to the conclusion that caliber doesn't matter. If the data is flawed, doesn't it stand to reason that the conclusion is flawed as well? Sorry, it doesn't add up. But thanks for posting it. If nothing else, it reaffirms what I already believed to be true.

If you're going to be robbed, would you rather be armed or unarmed?

Gonna see an increase in robberies as the economy worsens. No place is safe.

I have been hearing that the Galco Kingtuk is superior to the Crossbreed.

If I were doing it over today, I would qualify with what I was going to carry most of the time, which should also be a weapon you shoot well. It's only 50 rounds, so the cost difference is negligible.

MG, prayers for you and your family. God Bless.

I've always thought Cynthia Williams was very intelligent, but how disappointing to realize that this article reads like it was written by a 5 year old. It was insulting.

It's starting to look like a Hi Point...
