A young Texan grew up wanting to be a law man. He grew up big, 6' 2’ strong as a longhorn, and fast as a mustang. He could shoot a bottle cap tossed in the air at 40 paces. When he finally came of age, he applied to where he had only dreamed of working: the West Texas Sheriff's Department. After a big mess of tests and interviews, the Chief Deputy BOB finally called him into his office for the young man's last interview. The Chief Deputy said, "You're a big strong kid and you can really shoot. So far your qualifications all look real good, but we have what you might call an 'attitude suitability test' that you must take before you can be accepted. We just don't let anyone carry our badge son." Then, sliding a service pistol and a box of ammo across the desk, the Chief said, "Take this pistol and go out and shoot: six illegal aliens, six lawyers, six meth dealers, six Muslim extremists, six sex ofenders and a rabbit" "Why the rabbit?" "Great attitude. You pass." says the Chief Deputy. "When can you start?"

In 1996 Mamamo and I hosted a NRA certified pistol training course on my grandpa's farm.We received our concealed permits shortly after that.Since then we sold the farm and moved in a couple of mobile homes on my property. One for my Dad after his heart attack in 95 and one that my daughter and family currently lives in. Our permits have been expired for 7-8 years as we basically run out room to shoot safely here on the property. After buying the camp last spring I mentioned about building a pistol shooting range out back and getting back into the game.My brother is wanting to set back up my reloading bench which brings me to my question. I have 9mm reloading dies but have never used them.Back in those days the price of plinking ammo was cheap.Have you ever reloaded pistol ammo for an autoloader? My concealed weapons ammo will be factory I'm just talking about plinking cartridges. it used to be we could buy bulk ammo at a cheap price.

Some kind of dust storm going on, but take a close look at the pistol in his holster, arent they in a war zone..............I think one would want to carry a loaded pistol at least, at least have a magazine in the gun, but no, they have him carry a pistol without a mag in it.....got to wonder................
