if it wasn't deliberatley turned, it had to be currents. watch the video again and look at the smoke coming from the boat. looks like mostly calm winds judging by that.

so here's my deal. even though i asked the question earlier, i really want to believe this was an accident. my problem is that the more i watch the video, the more it looks like it was gonna miss the pylon right up till it hooked a hard right turn. so......are the currents really that strong that they coulda done that? or is it an optical illusion due to the camera angle?

that's a good point. i wear a size medium in most shirts. underarmor being an exception....they seem to run small, so i wear a large in those. but yea....the shirt wasn't very loose fitting down near my waist

thanks man. it looks like they make a "multifit" holster that'll fit my current light. while the holster looks huge compared to what i'm carrying, i think i'm gonna give it a try. i could(and may end up) follow the suggestions of some of the others and simply move to my 8oclock(remember i shoot left hand), i just would prefer to keep carrying same place.......

not using any kind of wedge. using this vedder belt...... https://www.vedderholsters.com/cobra-quick-release-gun-belt/ the vedder holster has a single metal belt clip. i don't know what a camming bar is? ok. i just was on tenicors site. what they're calling a camming bar is their version of a claw i think?

so......i carry the left hand version of apendix carry. i carry a g19 with a holosun dot and a pl mini wml. i use a vedder kydex holster for this combo. i've got a tulster for this same combo minus the light(which i'll be switching to since we've got longer days now). both have a claw on them. i always wear a "wife beater" under my normal shirt, (sorry if that term offends anyone it's not meant that way) which is normally some form of pull-over. today was a black walmart special long sleeve tee(i wear these for work). when i checked myself in the mirror, i felt that i'd concealed the tool perfectly fine. i got to work, was still opening things up when the pd that i do work for shows up with a vehicle leaking coolant. i'm chatting with him for a bit, and outta nowhere, he chuckles, points at my belt, and asks me "whatcha got goin' on there?" i told him it was my carry. after i'd changed and got to work on his vehicle, i asked him if he'd spotted it because he looks for them now or if i did something to give it away? he said that there was a lump showing there. now when i look down my front, all i see is the lump where the tool is. i'm skinny. i only weigh about 180. not big in the chest area either, so my shirts don't hang very far away from my belly. but i gotta ask.......how the hell do i hide this thing better?

my town only shows 75 permits. if i go by what i was told when i filed my application, they were hammered with them. i'd venture that there's more than 75 permits in my town.

i couldn't get through the whole thing. i'm pretty sure that the assessment was written by a fear porn expert.

the big question is.......was it really an accident? yea i asked the question.

i'd been wondering about the denials. essentially, do the use of force, shoot the quals, and there is NOTHING left for them to refuse ya for.

and yea.....either they're not letting us see how many permits were REALLY issued, or we gotta pump up those numbers.

it was the first time since 09, wasn't it? i'd venture correlation and causation.

so they're gonna drag this poor guy through court? good. when he wins, he needs to sue the shiit outta everyone involved. personally and professionally. and be sure to sue them for his lawyers fees, and for the mental anguish they caused him.

don't mind at all. there's been more since then. florida.

2 weeks ago was 2.99 where my shop is. last week waas 3.03. saturday jumped to 3.21

i would venture that he was just asking due to the total crazieness in this state. if i gotta be honest, i'm kinda surprised they're not telling us that we can't use a red dot or laser on our carry arms........

if you saw my house......you'd know why i'm not more worried about a burglary than i am......

watching the video, i feel like he shouldn't have kept his wml lit. i feel like he should've lit it, seen what he needed to see, kill it, move, then relight....keeping it lit would let them see his location constantly had they been armed. also it looked like he may have stayed in the doorway too long......... regarding doggo......often times, just a big dog barking will cause people to change their minds.....

i seem to recall seeing that discussed somewhere in here awhile back.....and i think that the general consensus was that they do. i don't wanna be the test case though. i'm poor. can't afford a lawyer. ok. so most of those denials look like reasons that would prevent one from owning the firearm in the first place.......

in the faqs i think they were partially wrong on duty to retreat on your property. they seem to have left out the "if you can do so safely" in that section.......'cause lets face it. i'll be happy to run away from an ass whooping....but i'm over 60. ain't no way i'm gonna outrun a 20something year old trying to do me harm.....thus...i cannot safely retreat.

if anyone wants some of these cards, let me know here. if there's a big enough want, i'll call my guy, and a thousand printed up, and get them to all of you that want them somehow.......

a member on this forum....i can't remember who.....had given me one or two years ago. i called my guy that prints my business cards, and had him print me a box of 250 of them.

i'm carrying some of these with me. as in encounter those business's i will make sure management gets one or five. we should all do this.

carry some of these.

should also require every single business that chooses to not allow guns in their places to provide secure storage for our firearms. kinda like some sheriffs depts use when entering their holding areas. each locker has only one key, which is taken when the gun is deposited. if they all want to treat us like criminals, it's time to make em pay.
