    This is my stance on "gun control"

    Yep! His arguments sound strikingly similar to the ones that I was "discussing" with a friend on FB the other day. And, to be fair, she really wasn't arguing, she genuinely wanted to learn more about the subject. I like that he he makes it about self defense. How many arguments have you seen...

    +P in an old Colt .38 Special

    :dito: What kwo said. Most handguns made after 1986 are safe to use +P in, but it gets hit or miss before that. And if the gun is pre circa 1958 and/or a revolver, DO NOT USE +P.

    Woman shot in the head

    Funny story, but it's just that... a story. I have seen several versions of that same story since about 1998. Still a funny story!

    Greetings from the NW burbs of Chicago

    Great idea! Not really.... If you have shot the Pro Carry, the Ultra will not disappoint. The Ultra is just a little smaller, but it still feels and acts like a full sized 1911 to me. And my favorite feature is the very short trigger travel and audible trigger reset.

    Thinking of getting a Springfield XD-S

    If I put the Pearce extension on mine, it will essentially be the same size as my Kimber. Right now it is the grip size that makes it a little easier to conceal than the Kimber. Maybe I will change my mind after shooting it. ?

    Greetings from the NW burbs of Chicago

    Welcome! I think your top runner is a great choice, I love my Kimber. Having said that, I just picked up an XD-s today. Still haven't shot it, but it carried and conceals very well! ;)

    Holster section.

    I have a Remora that I use with my Kimber, and I just bought a Cell/PDA pal for my XD-s. So far, the Cell Pal is very comfortable, and the gun absolutely vanishes. I will have to work on drawing from it though... it's very different.

    Got my XD-s!!!

    Went to the local gun show today, and they actually had two of them! Since it's going to be my conceal carry gun, I opted for the less expensive blacked out model. Now I can't wait to get to the range!! I also bought the Cell Pal concealing holster. http://www.concealedcomfort.com/video.shtml

    Are you a Sheepdog?

    If you have not read this entire piece of literature, I implore you to do so now. If you are a conceal carry licensed person, this should be required reading. http://rhinoden.rangerup.com/on-sheep-wolves-and-sheepdogs-by-ltc-dave-grossman-usa-ret/

    Half the nation's worst shootings ever have occurred since 2007

    Don't be sorry. Rant away! I feel the same way. I have several friends who are teachers and all but one of them are FOR allowing teachers to conceal carry in the school. Personally, I think it should be mandatory. All of the anti-gun nuts are going to come out of the woodwork again and start...
