      NRA Basic Pistol - TFT w/ Guy Relford

      The course was aimed at people who have never shot a gun before, and was definitely at the right level for them. I've been to the range several times and have some friends who have drilled into me the safety laws, showed me how to clean the gun, etc, so for me there wasn't a huge amount of new...

      NRA Basic Pistol - TFT w/ Guy Relford

      I completed my first training course today, and it was a really positive experience, so I figured I'd share it with you guys! I went to Tactical Firearms Training and the course was taught by the owner, Guy Relford. His presentation style was laid back, VERY knowledgeable, and I loved that...

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      I got my LTCH a few months back. I still haven't actually carried anywhere, but I've visited the range a few more times and felt much better about it :)

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      A bit of an update - I talked to my doc, and she seemed fine with it. I was totally expecting a little pushback, and she did say "why do you feel like you need a gun?" to which I explained that I already own one, I enjoy going to the range, and I just want the convenience of a LTCH. She wrote...

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      Wow Ljungman - yes, I totally understand why they ask. I wouldn't want to be the bunny... but I'm assuming this person either got a lifetime LTCH before any treatment or they lied on the app? There aren't too many ways for the "powers that be" to actually find out about that because of HIPPA...

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      I plan on calling my doc Monday to try and get the paperwork and keep going over and over what to say in my mind. If she, for some reason, is very anti-gun and ends up saying "I don't think you need to have that license" - then what? That'd be overstepping her professional bounds, but what...

      Educational carrying experience today

      I had no idea you could OC in Indiana before I joined this site. I've never seen anyone do it either, beyond uniformed officers. Before I knew the laws it probably would have made me nervous, especially in a park with my kid. (My thoughts about firearms have evolved quite a bit recently)...

      groupon

      Glad to hear - I picked up two of the Groupons but haven't used them yet! I'm looking forward to it!

      Thanks for letting me shoot there today

      Anyone else buy the ITP Groupon recently?

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      Nope, didn't lie. Not looking forward to dealing with the paperwork, but better to do a little now then have to do a LOT later.

      Have you ever been treated for an emotional illness?

      I just applied for my LTCH online and they asked about being treated for an psychiatric, emotional or mental illness. I had mild post-partum depression after having my son 3 years ago, so technically the answer to that question was "yes", but UGH, that's embarrassing. Will anyone else admit...

      So, Why do you carry a gun?... And your response...

      It is awesome to read some of these responses, since I've been on the fence as to whether or not I want to get my carry license.

      Watched a guy nearly shoot himself at local range

      I held my first firearm at Atterbury. Part of the reason I became a gun owner was because of my experience there. It felt safe, efficient, like a precision sport. Had that gone differently I know I would not have overcome my bias against guns. I wish it were closer to home, but I picked up...

      Most ridiculous reasons for being fired

      A guy at my office was fired for referring to our interns as "dirty little mongrels" in an email to the entire company. In his defense, he did say "j/k".

      Rand Paul endorses Romney

      Ugh, I will still vote for Ron Paul, because I don't believe either official candidate is worthy of my vote.

      Some guy put Andy's gun down his pants against his twigs & berries!

      I wonder what those guys will look like when they get old and fat. Maybe they can claim the elongated barrel is a silencer?

      .22's...Mosquito or SR22

      That'll teach me to do more research. I recently bought a Mosquito, but haven't gotten it to the range yet. If I get out this weekend, I'll let you know how it does.

      I have a feeling this is going to be an expensive hobby...

      Hi Fenway - nope, not me. As far as assumptions - you guys are spot on! Female - yup! And yes, my name is Jen. My kiddos are a bit too young for the range I think (1 & 3 yrs). And yes... I do play D&D. The gun I got at the show is a Sig Sauer Mosquito. I loved the feel of the...

      I have a feeling this is going to be an expensive hobby...

      So, background: I was never a huge fan of firearms. They scared me and I couldn't see myself ever using deadly force. Then I had two children, and my attitude changed quite a bit. These kiddos depend on me, and with increased crime in my area, I know I would do anything in the world to...
