i have a Glock23 .40cal works great but it's not quite a "conceal carry" size. I have it (unloaded and trigger locked) in my survival pack that stays in my airplane incase of an emergency landing in the back country ;-)
i'm also a Progressive Libtard (registered independent) that thinks we should ban assault rifles and large magazines just as we have banned hand grenades, bombs, rocket launchers and other military style/grade weapons. I've had my Hunter's safety card since I was 12 and I also went to high school next to Columbine in CO. My younger sister had friends who died in the attack. 2 cents. -Sean On Mon, Dec 7, 2015 at 3:01 PM, James Howard <ja...@litewire.net> wrote: > It wasn’t just the backstrap that bothered me.
