INGO Open Carry Cigar Night in Schererville, IN ~June 10, 2010

[theweakerbrother]

Maybe one day! I've never been to that part of the state... only through it!

LOL.

That's tempting, but unfortunately Schererville is not on my way home. I live in Brownsburg (right outside Indy) and work in Indy.

Well we are an hour "behind" you because we are on central time. That will give you plenty of time to get here

Monday morning BUMP.

LadyGhost tells me she LOVES the smell of cigar smoke, so maybe we can get HER to smoke one while we are there Thursday as well.

Recently I had a lady smoke a TABAK ESPECIAL ROBUSTO NEGRA at the shop. She loved it. She was afraid of the nearly black maduro wrapper but it is actually a nice mild cigar. A hint of sweetness and a mild coffee flavor but still allowing the tobacco flavors to come through. We are not going to be sampling that cigar, but if your wife is willing to try a cigar, that might be a good one for her to try.

Another cigar that seems to be very mild, and has an aroma and flavor that she may enjoy is an Acid Blondie. Its fairly popular with the younger crowd.

The cigar rep from Te-Amo Cigars who is coming in to give away cigars may be carrying a Glock as well. He alternates between that and a compact wheel gun.

Tonight is the night.

Again, it is OPEN CARRY 'friendly' but certainly NOT required. Come CC, come OC. If you have wanted to OC and have never done it before, this might be a good place to do so as there will be gun owners around you and the only glances at your gun will be admiration.

I've decided on a different Detonics pistol for my carry gun tonight. This one is a dull finish with custom birdseye maple grips. Parts made by Detonics of Pendergrass GA, but assembled by Detonics of Bellview, IL. It will be wrapped up in a Don Hume JIT slide holster on my right hip. While the grips are pretty nice, overall its nothing fancy tonight, just a practical gun in a practical holster.

Unless I have a call I'll probably be there right at 6 lol. My partner is a recent addition to the gun owning community. Neither of us will be carrying however, my company doesn't allow us to defend ourselves that way but is willing to send us to the places where you might need to the most. IN an ambulance that doesn't have drugs, but that many people who use them assume all ambulances do lol.

Unless I get off early, in which case i'll arrive with my Beretta 92FS OEF USMC special edition:

Are you bringing him with too?

I have a partner in a real estate deal, he is also a gun newbie. As a kid he hunted but then fell away from it. Now he has a Taurus PT111 but has not yet gotten his LTCH.

I took him down to the INDY 1500 last weekend and he was pretty much in shock the whole time . . . IN A GOOD WAY

 

[Expat]

So you are both bringing your male partners... kewl.

When is hookah night?

 

[melensdad]

When is hookah night?

I have to admit, I sell Hookah tobaccos and charcoals but I've never tried it. We are building a new lounge, much larger, and that one will have a hookah area and a cigar area.

So tonight there is no Hookah.

Tonight is just guns and cigars

 

[theweakerbrother]

If you need help setting up a hookah or have any questions about them, let me know. I used to be a mod over at hookahforum.com and I have about 8 of them... some tiny and some giant... 1 to 4 hose models. A relaxing hookah session with quality tobacco, natural coals and clean water and a funnel bowl make for a nice 3 hour session. I almost got into the hookah biz when I lived in the 'Nati.

I've got to make it to your side of the state, sometime.

And of that there was plenty! I only wish i could have stayed longer and sampled more of the promos! The one I had was outstanding! As you picked it out for me, which one was it?
