The best accessory is ammo
« on: June 24, 2014, 02:14:37 PM »
Here is the latest from my old high school chum. It is sure to rile some, but I whole heartedly agree with him on this.

My comment at the end of his article that explains where and when I started thinking about this and why I feel the way I do on this subject.

Of course I may be bias as a few years ago I was at the Rocky Mountain 3-gun with Pat Kelly as well.

Yep.  And it comes in leather, too.

Some guy I know told me to "Get a Glock and don't dick with it." 

"It is better to avoid than to run; better to run than to de-escalate; better to de-escalate than to fight; better to fight than to die. The very essence of self-defense is a thin list of things that might get you out alive when you are already screwed." – Rory Miller

Wasn't me. Could have been, but it wasn't!

You didn't admit to it, did you?  :)  I always try to remain stone faced when he talks about shok-buffs and 1911's.  :)
