• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Welcome aboard!

No idea how many members (the Membership page doesn't show that kind of stat or allow searching by location), but I would say quite a few... The Washington forum is the second most active by a large margin.

Or maybe we're just chatty.

Hey, Stanwood! Lived there for several years......I bet it looks nothing like it did when I was there......they were building so fast it made my head spin when I left.

Welcome aboard, and hopefully you'll make it to one of our lunches!

It was all the gun snobs who couldn't understand why someone would carry a hi point.

Where he is now is better. There a hi point is considered an expensive and high end gun.

Count me as one.

I read a post here about a gun having to be two steps from firing (?) Unless your carrying an empty single shot, a semi or revolver is ready to go with one step. Tell me where I'm wrong.

Welcome!
And you are wrong about everything. you just said. :p

There is no such law. I have no freaking idea where these mulitple step myths come from, but they don't apply here. You can openly carry a loaded handgun anyplace you can legally carry concealed. You do need a carry permit to carry loaded in a vehicle though.

I think there's something in regards to UTAH law with the whole "two steps from firing" thing. Doesn't apply to us free citizens.
