The only time I carried 2 guns was when a family that I had arrested several members of reportedly put a contract out on me. At the time, the Bureau issued S&W model 66's. I bought a Browning Hi Power for the additional rounds rather than just speed loaders for the 66......
THAT is a good reason to have high capacity.

Why should age enter into the mix. Will there be an "old age limit for people, too? "Hey, you're 66, too old to have a gun."
BS!
AARP already doesn't think Old People should have guns.

Believe it or not, each finger means something different.
That being said, I doubt if most people know what they mean, they just think a bunch of rings is cool, or whatever.

There will probably be a future time when these signs have no value, just like signs in the Jim Crow era that prohibited certain people from entering.
These signs have the Law behind them. I doubt that will change.

ive been underarmed for a great number of years - six shot in my colt 380 and six shot in my SIG 938 , even with two extra mabs im limited ,
this upgrade to hi-cap mags in a easy carry will allow me to conceal a far larger capacity ,
I'm not convinced that I need any sort of high capacity for EDC. I'm not a Cop, I'm just a guy going about my business. I carry for my defence and for the defence of my loved ones.
Colonel Cooper said something to the effect that he saw no reason to carry anything higher than a 1911 with a seven round magazine. He said that if one is threatened by a large group, and you shoot one or two, the rest will scatter like cockroaches when the lights come on. I can't argue with that.
Most of the Bad Guys out there are cowards anyway. They prey on those that they think are unable or unwilling to fight back. Most times so much as meeting their eyes with a hard look will send them looking elsewhere for a victim.
All that being said, good luck with your new pistol.

One time I was there and the bars in Tombstone had "no firearms" signs. I watched a guy walk in with a monkey on his shoulder, apparently wild animals were more welcome there than guns.
A business may, if they choose, not allow carrying of firearms on their property. Most here in Arizona don't worry about it. Just as a guess, Tombstone bars might be concerned that some drunk tourist will do something stupid. Surprisingly, there are people in Tombstone that are anti gun. The Owner of Boot Hill doesn't permit guns in his place either.
By Law, you may not carry in a bar UNLESS you have a CCW, and even then you can't be drinking.

The same reason you have to pay tax on your car every year.
Because the people in charge want your money.We don't pay tax necessarily, we pay registration on them. I've got no problem with that.

Yes there was a Superboy issue were they died of some rare disease and he, Clark, put a bubble of something over the house that would keep them from decomposing or that’s what I remember from my $.12 comic book.
There was another timeline in the Superboy Comics where he acquired some type of youth serum and gave it to them so that they weren't that much older than him.

When I was a kid, and one of us was changing an oil filter, the Go To Tool Set was a long screwdriver and a ball peen hammer. Punching that screwdriver through the filter got it off every time.

I would rather see everyone pay a sales tax on what they buy. We have to pay income tax on Social security and property taxes, and inheritance taxes. I think property taxes are much more fair to everyone. Too many people figure out ways to cheat on income taxes and why should I have to pay tax on inheritance
Two replies here,
((1) On Sales Tax: If you're talking about a flat sales tax on everything INSTEAD of Income Tax, then yes, absolutely. A 20% Flat Tax on any purchase would mean that everybody pays their fair share. NOT a "They have more money than I do so they should pay more" but everybody paying equally for what they get. Buying an everyday Grocery Getter for $20,000, pay 20% Tax. A $350,000 Lambo, 20% Tax. This way NOBODY can cheat on their taxes. We could also pretty much eliminate the IRS, because nobody would have to FILE taxes, they're already paid.
(2) Property Tax. I pay tax on the property when I buy it. I pay tax if I build on it. If I've already PAID Taxes on it, WHY must I continue paying taxes on it just for living on it, or even just owning it?

And once again I have to ask "why does any government have the right to tax my spending of my money? What service does this provide?
I think that it's worse than that. If you make money, they tax it. If you spend money, they tax it. If you buy property, they tax it. If you own property, they tax it. If you SELL property, they tax it. Finally, when you die, if you still have money left to leave to anybody, they tax it.

I send them to editors of the magazines (GUNS, Muzzle Blasts, Handloader, Rifle & Handgun, American Handgunner). I use email, and now that I'm using OneDrive, I share the file folder with them so they can download the photos and Word file.
Are they just freelance articles that you write on your own, or are they articles that they ask for? Just curious.

Where and how do you send it, por favor?

Looks like Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton and Cleveland. Big surprise there. However, my personal experience, though limited, was that nobody seemed to mind my open carrying a 1911 when I was there, both in Columbus and Cincinnati. I even got complimented several times.

When my friend and I were writing our book, we had two parts of a plan:
(1) We had a basic idea of what the plot was going to be,
(2) We wanted to tell the stories of our youthful adventures.
We would discuss what story wanted to tell, then figure out how the main plot could work into it. Many times it really didn't, but was part of the story that eventually got us where we wanted to go.
Our "style" for lack of a better term, was that he would think of something, an I would write it into a coherent story. Sometimers he'd come up with something that we'd insert into a part that we'd already written. It was very haphazard. When we met our Editrix and told her how we'd written it, she exclaimed "That's not how you write a book!" Maybe not, but that's what we did. She also said that it was of the top two books that she'd worked on in over forty years of editing.

If I had lost that kind of money, I'd offer a reward, say 5%. If I FOUND that kind of money, and a reward was offered, I'd accept because I DON'T have that kind of money. If no reward was offered, I'd politely ask, but if they said no I wouldn't argue the point, I'd just figure that being the Good Guy trying to do Right bit me in the butt once again.
And you KNOW that the story is fiction because if a homeless guy, at least around here, had found it, he be way to drugged up to even THINK about turning it in.

I believe she was a councilman or state rep.
The reason she didn't take her gun inside is that it made her Mother nervous.

Most people with the mindset of those three are convinced that the mere act of showing their gun will cause anybody else to flee in terror. They don't actually think they'll need to use it.

I often wonder if we are a separate breed.
I think that we are. How many members do we actively have on this site? A few thousand? At MOST?!? Compare that to the millions of sheeple on Fake Book. X. Tic tac. Insta Crap.
The people like us that are here ARE here because we're mostly like minded. Conservative, independent, self sufficient, people who are willing to do the work ourselves.
And unlike some of those other sites, we're here to just communicate with others like ourselves, NOT to get clicks, followers, or whatever.
I myself don't give a crap what the public at large thinks of me. I DO care what people I respect think of me. And that's most everybody here. Well, except maybe Alpo and Subdeacon Joe. (Just kidding guys, I love you both.)

I got my ass handed to me on a rusty platter once in awhile .
I have NEVER hesitated to toot my own horn when I did something really good.
There are times when one needs to do what has to be done, but is not permitted to do so. I've BTDT a few times myself.
I've also tooted my own horn simply because I knew that nobody else would.
