Unless the law has changed recently this is incorrect. Link Removed

This weekend the girls have a basketball tournament in Illinois, just barely over our state line. I am REALLY ticked that this tournament ended up in Illinois as I avoid the state when traveling to the southeast like the plague lives there because of their stand on guns. I am going to have to...

From a "local" Chicago paper: Link Removed SPRINGFIELD - In a huge win for gun-rights groups, a divided federal appeals court in Chicago Tuesday tossed the state's ban on carrying concealed weapons and gave Illinois' Legislature 180 days to craft a law legalizing concealed carry. "The debate...

Here you go, the Missouri statutes (laws) about signage: Link Removed Where it talks about signage: and following where it negates the signage law statute (also a law): So the "first law" which says no entry with posted signage is countered with the "second law" which makes the "first law"...

This was just running through my head since I travel a lot for fun and often travel into "must inform" states (don't live in one) and wondered about what you would do and what the "legal" thing to do is. Say you are speeding down the Interstate (10 mph over) and you get the old red and blue in...

Well, due to recent events, our Christmas list changed drastically (for the better IMO). Talking to hubby this morning, we have decided that everyone is going to get a new gun for Christmas, and we have 4 kids. I've been eyeing a XDM or a 1911 (leaning toward the Springfield 1911), Hubby is...

Had a colt I took in this morning to have gelded. Got finished at the vets, loaded him back up and left for home slowly since he was still a bit groggy. About half way home (40 miles from vet) I see red and blue flashing lights in my mirrors. Yippie. I KNOW I wasn't speeding since I was...

Today was our County 4-H Shoot Off and both my girls are in trap. Got some pictures to share. We left before the final line went so don't know if we placed or not, but it was a pretty good day for my oldest who shot 89. Younger daughter did not have as good a day but did ok (probably not in...

Son recently sent me this picture: Said except for the big artillery, this was one of the most "fun" guns he has ever shot. The grenade launcher makes all the difference in fun quotient. He is currently deployed in the Middle East with the ARNG. This is a major "perk" of the job, the fun...

Went to a rally for Santorum yesterday with my daughter who will be voting for the first time this year as she turns 18 in August. We are trying to get to personally see all the top candidates and get to speak with them before she votes. Anyway, as always I was CC'ing and as we were walking...

Animal rights group says drone shot down LOL, what did they think would happen, taking on a bunch of wing shooters from the air :)

This is what is worrying me: Link Removed I dont' know if it's moved beyond this yet and I don't care to be the "test case" if it has :). Also, we are part of the National Homeschool Tournament. We do not have "school buildings" but rent venues to play at. Fortunately, none are schools that...

Going to DesMoines next month for 3 days for daughters regional BB tourney (have two girls on the team, only have 7 girls total on the team, and the team is 15-3 so far :) *mom brag moment*) and I have been reading up on Iowa gun laws and have State carry covered, but cannot find anything on any...

Well, I'm running into a situation that I haven't been in before and am at somewhat of a loss on what I'm going to do. My Son is in basic at Ft. Sill. I live in Missouri. I have a CCW permit (yes they call it CCW in Missouri)and as I am often traveling alone with my 3 other kids it goes...

I usually carry in a Crossbred Supertuck and love it, but on those days I wear a dress (mostly summer) I cannot use it and I do NOT like to have my gun stuck somewhere in a purse. So, I decided to get a Thigh holster and went with Chick: Chick Holsters and couldn't be happier. I have been...

Good on you for encouraging your daughter! Our kids have always been shooting enthusiasts and compete in both firearm and archery competitions. Check out your Madison County 4-H for a Shooting Sports project: Madison County 4-H Clubs (Alabama) - Club - Huntsville, Alabama | Facebook as my...

And in some states, such as Missouri, it is PROPERLY referred to as a CCW: Link Removed Concealed Carry Weapon Endorsement So I see no reason why people "need to stop using the term 'CCW'" when it IS the proper term. My Permit says CCW, should I tell the state to stop using the term? LOL! To...

EXCELENT!!! This is the LAW in my state: Link Removed Please note that the LAW states that it ONLY means that someone can be asked to either not enter or leave the premises. Thus stating that they MUST be asked, not that signage equates to being asked. Pretty clear to me. Keep it concealed.

Link Removed Would like to add American Heartland Public Safety in Sedalia Missouri to the list. Jim Ulm is the lead instructor and the class is both thorough and enjoyable. I just finished the course last weekend with a group of 10, lead by 3 instructors and was impressed at the...

"Ignoring" signs may not mean you are breaking laws It depends on the laws in your state. See below: Link Removed Our law states that if it's truly concealed, then there is no issue as it's not a criminal act. :girl_wink: entire legalese:
