Thank you for the kind words, unfortunately it is the world we live in that all government entities that are public safety are wrong. Still love doing the job and helping others, just have to watch our back more.

Hello to the community. This is my first post, though I’ve been a USCCA member for a few years. I have a strong focus on preparedness that goes back to the late 1970’s. I’ve been a hunter and firearms safety instructor for a few decades.
My main preparedness activity over the past year has been building a hardened radio communications system in our home; relying on commercial power day-to-day, but having generator and UPS battery backup as well. Besides two way radios, a broad band scanner keeps us cognizant of emergent situations throughout our community and helps us stay clear of areas that might present a challenge.
I carry concealed most days while away from home. The specific firearm and nature of the carry varies depending on the activities and locations I intend to move through.
I look forward to reading your comments and discussions.

Greetings to all, glad to be part of this community. I am new to guns and everything that implies. I’ve taken some training sessions and applied for my CCW permit. I’ve made a decision on the Springfield Armory hand guns, one for carry which I like and a 10mm. I’ve done well at the practice range with both. I’m working on safety and grasping the responsibility of being armed. Somewhat over whelming but I think the decision to carry and being prepared to protect my family was a good decision. Lots to learn but looking forward to the education.
