      Illusion of "Land of the free..."

      The hardest part of this for me has been the breaking of the illusion of "Land of the free and the home of the brave". I relation to other countries around the world we are allowed more freedom than average. Certainly not as seen by the founders and certainly not controlled by "the people"...

      USPSA around Jackson MS?

      Going to be there this weekend and wondering if any matches were going on? Looked on the USPSA club finder but didn't see any. If you have a club name to look up on Practiscore I'd appreciate it.

      USPSA Gear in Baton Rouge?

      I'm planning to start hitting some USPSA matches (production) and am looking to upgrade my gear. Mainly switching to an inner/outer competition belt and good mag pouches vs. the 5.11 belt and paddle pouches I've been using. Are there shops in BTR that have much in stock?

      Any concern about Trump's "They will listen to me" statement?

      I may be the only one that noticed or that it bothered, but did anyone else have their ears perk up when Trump made the comment about the military ""listening to him" in regard to going after the families of terrorists? In case you missed it, they asked Trump about whether his comments about...

      Recommendations for automatic trap thrower

      I am looking to get an auto thrower for occasional use shooting with the family. Doesn't need to be fancy. Just something reliable with a battery and remote. If any of you have any feedback on one in the $300-400 range I would appreciate it. Again, I know you get what you pay for, but this will...

      Colt LE6920 or BCM?

      Asking for a quick opinion here. I have the typical entry level AR (S&W). The plan has been to get some more time on it, then move up and purchase as second AR that is considered better quality. I have been researching for a while and had pretty much decided it would be a BCM. With the...

      Where to get gunfighter/battle belt set up around Baton Rouge???

      I need to put together a gunfighter type belt for classes and to use for the home protection set up. Nobody in the Lafayette area has anything of that type (as far as I know). Is there a store in the BTR area that has some different ones to check out? Would also need a Glock holster, dump pouch...

      Report on VATA Tactical Pistol 1 Course

      I went to the VATA Level 1 tactical pistol course this weekend. I have been to courses from 2 other groups previously and wanted to broaden my exposure a bit. Here are few thoughts about it. Class make up was a mix of very new shooters, husband and wife duos, and some guys who have been to a...

      Lock for gun safe. Key pad or dial??

      I am in the market for a safe. I have found what I want, but am not sure about the lock. The convenience of an electronic key pad would be nice, but I have that nagging concern about it being over ridden and/or the always looming EMP. A dial would be a bit less cost and would have not battery or...

      Appendix carry with weapon mounted light?

      I normally carry a G 19 IWB appendix. Being from the Lafayette area, recent events have me thinking about adding a light. Is any of you guys carrying AIWB with a light? How feasible is it appendix? This would be with my 19 and a TLR1 or 3. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

      Protection for pistol mounted light?

      Just bought my first weapon mounted light. A TLR1-HL for the house G21. I plan to shoot a good bit with the light on and have heard that the lens can get dark from power residue. My practice .45 ammo is pretty smokey and I don't want to degrade my light capability. I saw on one forum that a...

      IDPA, steel, or other matches around Shreveport/Bossier?

      Anybody know of any clubs around the area that host matches? I go to the Bossier fairly often to see friends during the summer and thought I might try to squeeze in a match of some sort. Let me know if you have any info on the area and thanks in advance.

      Question about carry in churches?

      There is a provision in the law where carry is allowed in churches if certain criteria are met. (Congregation is notified, 8 hours of additional firearms training, etc.) I attempted to look up the specific language on the state web site and the link to the provision, RS40:137.9(U), says that...
