yeah, that's why I said "I love my town"... A few of the bigger cities don't allow it and none of the counties up around Atlanta do. But them city folk are just a bunch of transplanted northerners anyway...


Oh wait a minute, I was born in NY...

Glad to see you like it Eric. It works well, but I hardly use it (unless I have to go into a Federal Building: Post Office, etc.). It is a nice option.

While we are on the subject of carrying concealed, do your self a favor and get a Crossbread Supertuck for your XD. My BF carries a XDM .40, 4.5" barrel with the CBST and it is phenomenal. I also carry my P99 in a CBST. All I can say is, money well spent.

If this is something you are going to consider, do this: get the horsehide option, the combat cut is up to you. I actually prefer NOT to have the combat cut (I carry for extended periods of the day while on foot and in my vehicles for work).

here in va, apparently we are the easiest state to get guns says 60minutes lol, at the gunshows its perfectly legal to buy a gun off some dude in the parking lot lmao, prolly cause we are right on the bible belt, when i turn 21 im def gettin a handgun and my concealed permit, mainly the concealed so i can buy as many guns as i want, i wanna automatic weapons permit, cause i got access to a guy that used to import all kinds of weapons but the first handgun i wanna get is this

but hammer im pretty sure the carry policy is the same here as ur town lol, there r companies that frown upon it, but efem, there "security guards" can't actually do anything about it if u dont act suspicious

+1 on the Crossbreed holsters. They are the best CC holsters made. I have one for my 92F and would have one for my Glock as well except for the fact that they are not cheap.

Ace makes a decent inside-the-waistband, tuckable holster that's readily available for about $10 online. Nowhere near a Crossbreed, but when you rotate your carry gun and can't afford multiple $100 holsters, they aren't bad...

Yeah, they don't have the mass or support of the Crossbreed, so for a large framed gun like a 1911 or a 92F the Ace leaves a lot to be desired. But for a small to mid framed polymer gun, the little $10 holster does just fine.

Glock 23 with an Ace holster, shirt tucked. (please ignore the gut, LOL)...

In Michigan, there are certain gun free zones, like Malls, Churches (duh right?) Bars... I would like to be able keep the gun safe.

That bugs me so bad, Anyone with common sense knows that if someone is going into a Mall, church, with the intent to rob or kill someone A simple "rule"(of not allowing guns) is not going stop them, you as a law abiding citizen has to decide weather or not the risk of breaking "law" is worth possibly saving yours or someone elses life...

If I had kids and we were going to the mall, you better believe that's one place I would make sure I was carrying. JMHO of course.
