Dave, you ought to be able to find something suitable at Vandalia Range and Armory, Vandalia Tactical, or Olde English Gun Shoppe. As you're probably aware all three shops are just north of Dayton. If you're closer to Cincinnati, Target World has a huge selection of holsters. Even if it's not a favorite place of mine I can't dismiss their variety of totin' gear.

By the way,welcome to the forum.

Ah.. I've spent many a time driving my bike around the lake up there. I use to live in Sidney.

There is a gun store in Niekamp's Flea Market just south of Celina on 127. You might try there. He has a bunch of stuff. He's really no different than any other gun store but located in a flea market. Probably got more inventory, guns and accessories, than Tactical or Armory. I bought my first pistol there, .380 Hi-point, over 10 years ago. Got a Hi-Point 9mm Compact from him not long after that.

Yep I know about neikamps. Never really went in there in all my years living here.
There is all so a gunshop in celina. An I still have a gift card worth 16bucks for there.
But no matter waht I do plan on gettng a holster before the weekend.
Yea 10 yrs ago the lake was great. now it is nasty.
To much development an not enough filtration.
Then you get all the people fertilizing there yards right at the lake an it all runs in.
I would not throw some one I hate in that lake it is just yuck

Faitmaker's buddy
Seack. He posted once.

Yeah, it could have had a better turn out but I appreciated everyone for coming. Talked a bit with BB62 after everyone left. Great to meet BB and Dave.

I thought it was a good event and a bad one. I was really hoping to have more people ask questions. Only one person approached us and he was pretty familiar with the issues already and knew Lthrnck's situation (mentioned it actually). That was the bad. No real distribution of information. The good was that people were comfortable enough with the situation that nothing was started. perhaps Lthrnck already informed them all to well?

Patriot.... I am still interested in helping you with your St. Paris thing. Let me know the details and I'll be up for that.

Well for my first time OC I felt it went well.
It was nice to meet all of you. An look forward to getting together more often.


After I left I came home an worked on my leather holster.
I think I can salvage it. All so after that I went fishing at a park while OC.
Every thing went great till the end.

I noticed what I thought to be a police car pull in an just sit there.
Then every one else left an I was still fishing with my dog as well.
Well the cop was still there.

So by this time it was getting dark.
Then he pulls up as close to were I am fishing with out getting out of his car an without shutting it off.
My adrenaline is running an my stomach is doing back flips.

Well I decide to call it a night.
So I go to my car an unload an secure the gun in the trunk an the mag in my glove box.
I pull out an he follows.
I dont like that so I go around the lot to a track can.
Then continue. This way I am behind him.


Turns out I did not see the sign that said Park closes at Dark.
Yea The cop turned out to be a park oficer waiting to lock up.
Nice guy

Alls well that ends well.

A gripping tale, for sure!

Well been a bad week, wrecked my truck.



Since we had the OC education walk in Englewood last weekend, there will be no official meeting tomorrow.

Next meeting will be at Hasty Tasty on the 4th Thursday.
