Music City Tactical Shooters - RUN & GUN Match 03/19/2011
BigK replied to HOGNUT's topic in Competitive Shooting Sports
Mr Li, can I get your autograph? Just kidding. My daughter had somewhere to be, so I had to leave before everyone got to shoot. Did you get a Mulligan on the last stage? -

The stage with all steel targets was my favorite today. Kudos to the designer of that one! Me and my XS Big Dots are looking forward to a steel match, even if Hognut makes fun of me . -

Thanks for letting me know and thanks for leaving me that mag pouch at the last classifier, you're AWESOME! -
I sincerely hope that there is no "next time" for this guy. Having a reputation as a business owner who'll fight back will hopefully minimize the likelihood. Sadly, there are some thugs that may knowingly take a run at him anyway. I fear they will shoot first, unlike these thugs, who don't seem to have had any intention of killling him, despite him wrestling with them.

A friend at work and I were just talking about COPS at work today. Definitely a top-notch outfit. I was joking about the nifty stickers, LOL.

I get confused easily and I'm new to IDPA, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. The Run -N- Gun rules say "No limit on the amount of magazines, carry as many as you wish" Does this mean we can carry more than 2 mags in pouches on our belt for this event or do the extras still have to go in pockets like IDPA rules state? -
I must've "miss pelt" it when I searched, LOL. I like to help the fire dept and LE orgs when I can. The thought of giving my hard earned money to a group that fought against restaurant carry or any other 2A effort makes me ill, though. I looked them up too and read most of these articles and old threads, I think I'll keep my $25 and they can keep their nifty card and stickers.
-
I got a letter asking for $25 to be a member of this outfit. I found their website & it looks like a legit org. I have no idea why a non-LEO would be solicited or why I'd want to be a member. Anyone got any input?

Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll get himself a fancy 1911 next and teach us about it too.

You are the absolute best, thank you sooo much.

Since we're confessing... I've tried a dozen times to lose weight. All the programs I started didn't fit my lifestyle or budget. The budget part was usually the worse. Fresh fruit/veggies are expensive and double cheeseburgers are only a buck, know what I mean. Plus, I sit at a desk all day and ate dinner in front of the TV every night. You know that ain't a good plan. I've always been way too lazy to exercise, so wasting money on a gym I won't go to never worked either. I finally decided try again, shooting for a 2-3 pound loss per week. So far, so good...I'm down 65 pounds since around Halloween and haven't done one minute of exercise. My pants size is down 6" and I've dropped one "X" off my shirt size. I'll eventually have to start exercising to keep the progress going, but at least now it will be easier to with less weight to carry.

Can I get my name changed from "Think About It" to "BigK"? I'd certainly appreciate it.

Seems like a lot of mfg have a kydex/leather hybrid for sale now. That's good, since it gives us more choices. As much as I like my SuperTuck, I can't say I wouldn't go with a less expensive brand as long as it had metal clips. That Galco looks nice and you can't beat that price. I'd be curious to know about the quality of the leather when you get it in. Keep us informed.

WOW! That does look like fun! I can't wait! -
I also hear good stuff about Kholster too. They are kind of ugly, but at least they have metal clips.

I laughed at first, but then I realized...hey! you may be onto something here. Google has NOTHING! The bib could be full of MOLLE webbing to hang gear on like a chest rig. The sides would have to be cut lower (maybe button down near the hip instead of up past your waist), so you can have an inside the overall holster (I guess that'd be an ITO holster). Otherwise, you can just get a duty belt and OC full time
-
I feel your pain. My wife, bless her heart, says I'm not really overweight...I'm just a foot too short for my weight. I thought a pancake holster would be best, but like you said, they ride too high for my spare tire. My Crossbreed Supertuck is perfect though. The gun disappears and I forget its there now that I've discovered that I can tuck a tshirt behind my holster, put on my Perry suspenders, and wear an outer shirt to hide the rig and my suspenders! It's very comfy all day. Plus you can adjust how high the back rides so you get enough grip sticking out without jelly roll interference.

Among your choices I had to say G17, but the G34 is better. I'm surprised so many said G19. I would have thought the short sight radius would turn too many people off.

Devoting hundreds of pages to character development is the heart and soul of the book, IMHO. Afterall, it is a person's character that makes them choose right over wrong or in the case of the book...personal responsibility over socialistic ideals. Maybe she could have found a way to explain that the heroes' choices where the only sane options they had in fewer pages, though.

The problem with entitlements is that the politicians KNOW it's a sure-fire way to keep us dependent on them. They're like crack dealers! They get people strung out on gov't money, all the while knowing once given, it can NEVER be taken away. They'll let us go bankrupt before they'll cut entitlement spending enough to balance the budget.

OHSHOOT, we have demands that must be met!
BigK replied to Dolomite`s Breezy's topic in General Chat
too funny! I bet he has accomplices holding a Lorcin and a Bryco in case the 1911 fails. -
It does bother me a little, but only b/c they don't really check my DOB they just asked to see it to cover their a$$. They don't even look at it. They just look at it be able to say "I asked, they showed".
