I'm going to try to make this - not positive yet.
Is a OWB hoster O.K. for a concealment holster if it is completely covered by a winter coat? |
|
Count on AnnieO and I both for the 7th. Interested in the 8th as well (request for details via PM or Email).
|
|
Interested, very much so. Is this an ulumni only class? Meaning did you have to have handgun 1 & 2 as a prerequisit?? I know someone who might want to attend that does not have 1&2.
Sully can you PM me with details on the 1-1/2 day instructor couse? Thanks |
|
Can't make either morning, as I'm working the night before. |

The Cold Weather Handgun Course is open to everyone, there is no prerequisite. This will be an eye opener. The Instructor Workshops are for our Instructor & Coaching Staff to get some training time on specific issues as it pertains to our training & doctrine.

Sully, the above in red is a typo correct. What is the ruling on a typical OWB type holster like a kydex holster with a heavy winter jacket? Or, are you looking for a true concealment holster such as an IWB? |
|
|
Fixed the red part. OWB is fine as long as it is concealed. This is not a thigh rig class unless that is your normal day to day carry mode.

Umm, my understanding is that for now folks in Wisconsin can only carry concealed in their home or business. Unless you're a LEO no one here has a standard 'day to day carry mode'. Can you clear up the legalities of carrying concealed during this training?

Sully, I don't see the place on your site to pay. There is no listing for the Jan 7th class. I want to pay you, please.
|
|
In. Just have to find a concealment holster. But Defiently in!
|
|
Some of us have non-resident permits that allow carry out of state. I for one do a lot of traveling for business, and carry concealed frequently and legally during those trips.
IM OTW. |

I need to check on some things first, but I think I can make it.
|
|
I'll beg the boss to let me off for that weekend, but it is my weekend in the rotation so I doubt I'll get it. |

There are many people of different backgrounds that attend our training. Some of Law Enforcment, Government Agents, Protective Agents, Private Detectives, Bodyguards, Military, and others, of which many of these people do carry firearms for a living and are authorized to do so. So if you are planning on attending carry in your normal day to day carry mode, and abide with what you are authorized to do.

|
FMD let me know if yer going and if you are I have some stuff for None and Kill from PX that i'd like to give to to get to them.
|
|
Found out for sure I can go. I just paid on the website.
Nevermind, I see on the DE website that I only need credentials if I'm first time. See you guys in a couple weeks! |
|
We're going. Matter of fact, I need to put the payment in (oops). If ya feel like taking a ride out this way, LMK, and we can do the xfer tonight (or sometime this week in the evening)... Alternatively, both you and PX can come out, so I can get a chance to say goodbye... TJ; IM inbound. |
|
|
Thanks for the reminder. I've been waiting for the DE website to get the new courses up. I also noticed on the DE site: a Cold Weather Carbine (half day) in Reedsburg in March. |
||
|
Sounds good to me. We'll figure something out. |
||
|
Paid up. Let's get to shooting. See most of you in a couple of weeks.
|
|
We should be rolling into town on Friday sometime. Please keep everyone informed on the weather as the weekend gets closer. Any idea how much snow on the ground that we will be contending with, or is the range area pretty packed down. Just wanna know if I need my snow shoes.

I have kept most of the range plowed out, so it is bare ground. The rest of the terrain is spotty, hard frozen snow between 0-4" .

Not going to make this one guys. Sorry. Have to move a friend in Milwaukee this weekend. Have fun, be safe.
|
|
So do we have a list of who all is GTG for this? I paid on the website right after the link went up and mailed the paperwork right after that. Usually we got a confirmation by mail but I haven't gotten one yet. (I realise this class was probably done on short notice - esp. with the holidays in there.)
Just want to make sure we are all on the same page. |
|
AnnieO and I are paid up. On that note, who needs directions/needs to carpool?
We'll be leaving from the Goerkees(sp ?) Corners park-and-ride at 7 on Sat AM, with one vehicle making the return trip on Saturday PM. Let me know via email from here. |
|
To all of you that are going to be there tomarrow
[cartman]I hate you guys[/cartman] Wish I could be there for this one. I'll be there for sure for the March cold weather carbine. |
|
The twins will be there bright and early
Well maybe not that early and for sure not that bright |
|
Not going to make this one, sorry guys. Priorities and all that, plus I am broke at the moment.
|
|
Quick reminder to everyone on the board. DO NOT piss off AnnieO. Trust me on this one
|
|
What like were going to forget she shoots better then most of us? |
|
|
You missed her "stress inducement" technique. Needless to say I (and everyone else present for the class) will be much nicer to her in the future. I don't think I slept at all last night, as I was waiting for this: to happen. ETA: Sorry about that Darren (? I forgot your name), but I really had no idea. Women can suprise you...even after 15 years! Edit 2: He's still wringing his hands in the class photo! |

Picture R. Lee Ermy as an old school (read: Sailor's mouth) DI having a really, really, REALLY bad day. "Evil" doesn't begin to describe the vile, hateful, and distinctly female tone that made every testicle within earshot run for cover... It was truly awesome. ETA: I'm glad that she knows I love her very, very, VERY much and would never, ever, EVER do anything to make her mad. |
|
|
It managed to hit every married man there right at the base of the skull.
Hey AnnieO I'll buy the Ben&Jerries if you promice not to get mad at me like that |
|
Man yall got me curious as to what she was saying now. |
|
|
Next time you, FMD, and AnnieO get togeather for a shoot ask her to put you thru the stress line.
