Quoted: Constitutional carry passed July 7.... no permit required. The transport issue, was people over reacting. The law was clear you could transport from a place of purchase. The gun just had to be unloaded, etc. To my knowledge (pre Constitutional Carry) a permit was still required to carry loaded in a vehicle, but transporting was from point of sale, to the range, for repair, etc. was not an issue. View Quote Wasn't the original code a bit ambiguous about transporting a handgun? I swear I remember it being a big deal on INGO around the 2013 timeframe when the wording changed to clarify it was ok to transport to the range or gunsmith w/o a LTCH. |

That's what I'm saying was over reacting.... but yes, you're correct (although I didn't think it was as late as '13). The law said you could transport it unloaded to/from a place of purchase or place of repair without an LTCH.. but did not specify a shooting range. So everyone took this to mean you needed an LTCH to go to the range. Most failed to consider virtually every range offers some form of gunsmithing/parts... Adding sights, cleaning, new magazines, etc. so it would have been impossible for the police to enforce. |

Quoted: Indiana doesn't have CCW permits. We have handgun permits, which former Governor Mitch Daniels (Bush's numbers guy) created a lifetime handgun permit circa 2006. Basically, you need a permit to buy a handgun (all LEO heads sign them without question) , but there are no CCW or other restrictions on how you carry. I've been out of the country and that handgun permit might have been ammended into our constitution, I believe I heard a few years ago. View Quote |

Sounds like a great scenario to watch. Greenwood PD chief said it would not be released as it was "way to graphic". Reading another story today, apparently the first person shot, was also armed. He was standing right by the restroom and was the first person shot. Just dumb luck, he probably never had a chance as he was shot as soon as the suspect exited.

Quoted: How do you steady yourself against a pole with a pistol? View Quote Really? Your arms, brace over or around. If you haven’t practiced odd shooting situations you should. Last year I did a DMR that included a pistol shot on steel at 100. There was a blue plastic barrel there. I tipped it over and shot over it and hit steel with second round. If your range doesn’t allow situational shooting, travel some to one that will. |

I haven't seen any coverage of this in the MSM... must have been ended quickly by a white guy with a gun...

Shouldn't confront robbers... I'll just cease commenting here, other than go fuck yourself "police union president "... fucking cunt. |

Good shooting. Link How do you steady yourself against a pole with a pistol? Back in the olden days - our course of fire started at the 25 yard line. You had to hit at least 3 of your 6 shots from the 25 yard line, or you failed the qualification. We had a barricade for ‘cover’ and were allowed to brace against it with the handgun. Of course nowadays, so many tards are hired that they start from the 1-3 yard line and work their way back to the 25 yard line. If you have at least 50-100 vision in one eye and don’t have turret’s, you don’t need to make any hits from the 25 yard line to qualify. I sure do miss the old days of being an FDLE Certified Firearms Instructor and Range Master - the humor was aplenty I tell ‘ya. |
