I'll jump in line after T.L.! lol How would you compare it to the S&W Shield 9mm?

I want to apologize to the OP, we pretty severely hijacked your post. As previously mentioned, he just needs to ensure he's following the requirements for transportation of a firearms in a vehicle. He'll have to unload and store appropriately every time you drive somewhere. The Ohio AG's manual...

I feel like we should get into the caliber and stopping power debate next! (said with extreme sarcasm)

I understand your point, and it is a valid one. I guess for me it comes down to this, I carry a firearm for the protection of myself, family, and potentially a stranger from severe bodily harm or death. I do not carry it as a deterrent to would be criminals. That can be left to law enforcement...

To make a more relevant comparison was the purpose for my edit and adding the 2nd link if you read it. In the spirit of additional opinions, other members feel free to chime in!

It is possible to disagree on a particular topic, yet share our individual views and reason for our views in a civilized and respectful manner. I was simply asking what you individually characterize as "benefits" as you obviously have strong feelings on the matter and the "benefits" can differ...

Can you elaborate on "benefits"? Thanks.

While thankfully this active shooter in a school tragedy was avoided, the suspect admitted his plan to the police when arrested. Among the other details of the story, what is your belief as to why the first person he planned to kill at the school was the School Resource Officer if not because...

@caleb4387 , do you have specific reasons you believe my opinion to be false? Or simply your personal feelings? Regardless, If he wants to do it that's fine, just something I dont recommend as common practice to my students.

With all due respect to your buddy, open carry does nothing but paint a giant bullseye on your back. Who is the first person the thug is going to shoot after pulling out his gun during a robbery.....the only other guy with a gun. While I am a supporter of the fact it is legal in Ohio and hope it...

+1 to that. I couldn't agree more.

Changed to 8hrs last year. You can actually do part of it online which is ridiculous. I think there is a balance, covering more material is good, but there are also classes that cover two handed shooting, one handed shooting, shooting on the move, barricades malfunctions, reloads, shooting...

Chris Timmerman submitted a new resource: Tactical Skills Development, LLC. - A Personal Approach to Personal Protection. Don't settle for the minimum. Read more about this resource...

You've been a great resource. Thanks.

Thanks T.L. Is my interpretation of the mentioned ORC code correct? A company cannot be sued in civil court for the actions of a CCW carrying employee if they discharge the firearm at work? Say.....attempt to stop an active shooter and hit an innocent bystander. The company is protected...

Given the civil liability protection offered under ORC 2923.126 C(2)a it perplexes me that businesses are so against it.

I started a new job in December and have taken it upon myself to fight the good fight. Current company policy is no weapons on premises. After the San Bernadino shooting happen our Employee Assistance Program sent out a mass email stating if anyone felt stressed or anxiety about the events they...

Likewise! I'm about to drag you into another thread shortly......lol

T.L. You hit the nail on the head. The entire reason I started teaching is I was tired of sitting through classes of mind numbing power point and shooting 20-50rds at a bullseye target and only ever picking my gun up off a table. It is ridiculous to think a person that only ever has that...

I had a pretty intense debate recently so I figured I'd tee this one up for the group. lol Undue burden...haven't looked at it from that perspective. Thanks for the input!
