    380 The CT is now back on the LCP

    I've been accused of being indecisive, with some justification. I keep going back and forth with the CT. Now I have a Remora with attached mag pouch (which I wear cross draw so the mag stays on my 'weak' side), a Hays OWB cross draw holster and a Bear Creek back pocket holster, so I'm pretty...

    My challenge to the laser sight makers

    I think the laser sight makers are taking the "easy road" and not addressing all the needs of their potential and current users. My argument and challenge to them is on my blog, sdcarry.blogspot.com Let me know what you think. Mayo. iPhone & Tapatalk

    Holster wardrobe

    Just as you have a wardrobe of clothes that you use to fit different circumstances, so do most of us have a holster wardrobe for the same reason. Summer demands different holsters than winter. A day of active pursuits requires different holsters that when you will be trapped, sitting on your...

    Preparedness

    I posted this on the other forum and want to share it here. If you want to be ready under almost any circumstance (assuming you have at least one hand free and are still conscious) carry in a GOOD accessible holster (if you are down, on your back with someone on top of you that nifty 4:00...

    An example of a brief letter to an elected official.

    I wrote it. You can use it, modify it, add to it, etc. Then send it to all of your representatives. Please take a look at the website: www.justfacts.com, especially the section on gun control: http://www.justfacts.com/guncontrol.asp It appears to be an unbiased research site, providing facts...

    A few actual facts about gun ownership and the use of guns in defense.

    I've been in conversation with the Majority Leader of the Colorado Senate again. There are "facts" flying around about the number of people killed and injured in "gun violence" (whatever that actually means), number of crimes committed with guns, etc. Well, I have done some research on facts...

    9mm New pjholster and notes on the Little Foxx and Bullards

    In my ongoing quest for the perfect holster (yeah, I know, but a man's gotta have a goal) I have been using one of Paul's (pjholster.com) outstanding kydex creations. I used to snub kydex, but I've since changed my tune. Check that out on: http://sdcarry.blogspot.com Since my last postings...

    Hypothetical

    As a wise man once said, be sure to bring a gun to a gun fight. That said, at the minimum, any gun will do. Gunfights, however, are not math or target contests. There will be a lot of screaming, running, cursing, falling down, hiding behind anything handy, shooting quickly, adrenaline crazy...

    I think it is time to be pro-active

    Also, I just went on the other forum and smacked the NRA around a lot.... >:( Guess I'm getting fiesty and onery in my old age. I just passed the 70 year mark, so what are you going to do?

    I think it is time to be pro-active

    There is no substitute for communication to the right individuals. We kick topics around on the forums, but those who should be receiving our opinions and beliefs don't generally read these forums. I just spent half an hour finding the email addresses for all of my state senators and...

    Which to carry??

    If I buy a handgun, and it's not a target piece or something I'd only want to shoot at the range, I will carry it. I always have the LCP (I want a light gun for around the house carry) and will also carry the LC9 or SR9c, with and without the LCP. If I had an SR1911, I'd carry it too. I'm...

    380 New Jeff Hayes LCP Cross Draw OWB

    I put up a more detailed first report on my blog ( sdcarry.blogspot.com ) with initial photos of the holster and how it rides.

    380 New Jeff Hayes LCP Cross Draw OWB

    Still working well. I also like how little of the holster rides below the belt line. Had it on all day yesterday and although I knew it was there, it did not constantly remind me of that fact. Comfort is very good. Still close to the body, but time will tell how it holds up to daily wear in that...

    Ruger SR1911 Commander

    So, here is my dilemma. I want either SR1911. I would more likely carry the Commander than the full sized one. Ruger has also released a .45 in the SR9/40 configuration. I expect a compact model to follow. Now, I love my SR9c. I would also love an SR45c. Probably fit all my holsters too. If I...

    380 New Jeff Hayes LCP Cross Draw OWB

    Jeff Hayes who live a couple of hours north of me in Colorado Springs, just sent me one of his "high and tight" OWB cross draw holsters for my LCP. Since getting my Crimson Trace Laserguard I have been carrying it in a Bear Creek pocket holster and wanted another non-pocket option. Getting a...

    Ohio Group offers shooting lessons to teachers

    I believe this illustrates that, as currently allowed, protection of our children in the public schools is grossly inadequate. Committed, trained and legal concealed gun carriers are an effective, cost-effective and quick answer to a serious problem. Mayonardo iPad & Tapatalk

    I am ok with posting the link. It is informational. As we all know, political flame wars are to be avoided. I think sane discussions are good. Mayonardo iPad & Tapatalk
