Ya, when some one says "stick 'em up" you can always say, "okay, just let me tie my shoes first".

CA has new laws in process of being passed that hopefully will make it easier to get a CCW in the state for those who legally qualify.

I am looking at picking up a Glock 30. Can't go wrong with .45.

Re: MACS

Yeah the current law is crap. I really hope the new one passes. There was some lawsuits over the existing law and courts basically said it was illegal in its current form (too ambiguous).

So the new law has a good chance of passing even though our state hates us honest citizens owning and using firearms legally.

Pretty easy qualification today.

10 rds from the 15 yd line, alternating at 2 targets.

Same from the 10 yd, but you put 2 in the chest and one in the head. Again, from the 7 yd, 2 in the chest, one in the head.

I hit 29 out of 30. Dropped one of the head shots. Pretty tight groups for as fast as I was shooting.

most gun fights happen at 7 yards or less and with a low percent of hits

I have a universal CCW...................hip pocket and don't give LE a reason to search you.BTW Texas laws now require no CCW perse..........if your qualified to own a handgun your good.Some ambiguity in the law does exist but it has not been challenged yet.My biggest fear is having to use it in the Austin area................them loco/liberal bastids would challenge it I assure you.

BETTER TO BE JUDGED BY 12 THAN CARRIED BY 6.

Received it in the mail today. Already laminated.

We have a new guy running the CCW Unit and he's actually doing his job. One of the guys at work waited almost 5 months after submitting his paperwork.

I waited 16 days.
