Since CrossBreed holster have taken flight, many existing holster companies have tried to imitate and many new holster manufacturers have started, using the basis of the CrossBreed as their main holster. Continue reading Gold Star IWB tuckable holster review

Break Glass in Time of War
I had a long introduction about PTSD and how it has influenced me, my family and friends, however, I would prefer you just delve into the article.
This article is reprinted with permission from a man I recently met, David Burnell. Though it was written a couple of years ago, I feel it is as valid as ever. The article here is un-edited, however in case you want to double-check, the original is located here: http://www.tactalk.com/2010/08/break-glass-in-time-of-war.html?utm_source=Constant+Contact&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=letter-20131205 Continue reading Break Glass in Time of War
CrossBreed Supertuck holster review
First off, let me remind you, I am not a fair weather holster / gun wearer. I put it on as soon as my pants get on and take it off when I get undressed for my shower at night. The only other time I take off my holster is if I am going through a metal detector. Other than that I have it on. Some people remove their gun when they get home. What good does it do you in the bedroom when you are in the living room and a criminal or multiple criminals break in? A holster must be comfortable enough for all day, and into the night wearing. My CrossBreed Supertuck is one such holster. Continue reading CrossBreed Supertuck holster review
Canovi Signature Series Custom holster – 1911
As a long time advertiser on the Gun Show Radio, Christmas 2012 Matt Canovi gave me a gift of any of his Custom holsters I would like.
The holsters are made by Gaunt Leatherworks in Springfield Missouri. The first week of January 2013 I went by Gaunt and spoke with the owner Tim Gaunt and told him what I wanted, which was the Custom Elite 2-piece detachable holster for my 1911. I figured that since I had not worn my 1911 in a while this would be a good time to do so again, plus it gave me a good reason to see how a different firearm in a different type holster would feel.

Keltec P-32 Review
I have owned the pistol I am reviewing for about 7 years now and have run hundreds of rounds through it so I can pretty well give you a good idea of the positive and negative points of this handgun. For those that shoot regularly, you might have noticed that for this timeframe I should have shot more rounds through it, well read on my friends, read on. Continue reading Keltec P-32 Review
Thank you Armalite you came back and scored a home run
While writing my thank-you to Trijicon, I remembered another long overdue thank-you.
When the election of 2008 was narrowed to “oBummer” and “I’m a RINO McCain” I realized I had not bought an AR-10 yet. Continue reading Thank you Armalite you came back and scored a home run
County and City governments that do not use CERTs should be ashamed
Lately I have run into two cities and one county that is crying “we need more tax money for first responders!” Yet they violently (yup I said violently) oppose CERTs and threaten to have them arrested if they show up on site. As for the show up on site issue, I have said it before, CERTs and other volunteers should not self deploy. With that said, such an angry attitude against free help shows me the requestors (Mayors, Councilmen, Administrators et al) only want power, not to help the citizens of their communities. Continue reading County and City governments that do not use CERTs should be ashamed

Holster review – DeSantis 1911 SoB holster
Years ago, about 2000, I was swayed away from carrying my Glock and to carrying my 1911 again. I really don’t remember why. Since Missouri did not have a CCW permit at that time, and I had not carried this particular 1911 in Texas, I did not have a good carry holster for the 1911 style firearms. With that in mind I purchased the holster in this review. It is a made in the USA, black holster for a full size 1911s, from DeSantis, model 067 Small of Back holster.

Fobus G2 paddle holster
In 1998 or 99 when I purchased my first Glock pistol, I wanted / needed a holster. The Fobus was a brand I had seen marketed a lot and the fact that Israel used and made them was a key decision point in my purchase. With an un-tucked shirt, this holster kept my Glocks well concealed.
This review is on a Fobus Glock holster, it is lightweight (2oz.), low profile and right handed. It uses passive retention, that is no “locking system” and has steel rivets and comes with a lifetime warranty. Currently retailing from Fobus for $31.99
