Just a tip...
Here’s another. I don’t think spelling is necessarily the key!

heh he thinks that because I find nearly all he believes in to be bullshit that I am somehow ... unstable...

thankfully , he is not the determining power , and after screening in the military and for the LEO position I hold , I have gotten a clean bill of mental health by all the shrinks needed for clearances in the military and for a pretty successful career in law enforcement since I have been out of the service.

liberals think that anyone with a backbone and a set of beliefs different than their own is crazy, it is their communist / fascist nature

I dont think you're unstable at all. Of course, like yourself, I am of the belief that guns are merely tools, one is responsible for his own actions and some people just need killin'.

Re: Do You Carry A Gun?

If guns cause murder, then pencils cause mis-spelled words.

But, on the topic of carrying a gun, I just picked up another this afternoon:



It's a Kimber Pro-Carry .45. Comfortable to carry, and not wickedly expensive...

Never heard about that brand, where is it made and what did it cost? You should try Hi-Point if you are so cheap.

Kimber is actually a high end brand. Typically they cost in the thousand dollar and up range. The pistol in question is a very nice one and I commend Steve on his purchase.

Not wickedly expensive probably means less than a thousand. Now Hi-Points are a joke. I wouldnt carry one to throw it at something.

Kimber is prolly the Cadillac of mass-produced 1911 pattern pistols.

Hi-Point is um...well lets just say its more low end...

Clearly, you know nothing: Here's a quick listing I found: Kimber

The one I bought was $725.00 out-the-door.

I've spent more on a shoulder holster than I could spend on a Hi-Point...

My brother's had one for a while, and it's always been a dream to shoot. I've been thinking about it for a while, and figured it was time to pull the trigger (pun intended) on getting one...

Seriously, have you spent any time, at all, reading this thread?
