Formal training?

How many here have had formal training in concealed carry other than what they got when they got their permit? Somebody asked about "Frontsight" in another thread here and I thought I'd expand on it. I don't personally endorse any particular method... but this really interested me... Frank...

Front Sight

Front sight is in trouble for financial reasons... The training is good, I have heard. But the head of it is some sort of scammer... take his class and get a free gun... yes that's true... but the class costs more than any other comparable. This is just what I've heard. I have no personal experience...

Marschal CZ82 Wood Grip caution

Yes, I would think they would be thin in wood... unless you could use the epoxy impregnated woods (that don't look much like wood at all) that they use for turned pens. That's why I asked about ZEE grps for CZ vz. 82s I've noticed too, that if you re install the standard grips (too) tightly... that ...

P-64 TRIGGER PULL IMPROVEMENT

That's a heck of a first post!

more info on the "factory made" springs, and pictures would make this even more valuable than it is.

Thanks HD77,

Getting to know the P64 (longish)

Thanks everyone for your replies. I'm not concerned about the power of the load... If I don't choose the P 64 for carry, I'd take the CZ 82. I like the size of the P 64, I like the accuracy, I think the quality is there. The ergonomics are a concern. I will be trying it more extensively over the nex...

Getting to know the P64 (longish)

Electross, I hear all of that... regarding the size of the round. As to whether or not I'd want to be hit by one or the other... I'd take the 40... Just kill me quick. ;D On the other hand, some comparisons of rounds that I've read say that the 9X18 (or the nearly equivalent .380) is pretty deadly. ...

Getting to know the P64 (longish)

Please forgive the length of this discussion, but I'm trying to nail down alot in one post. Kinda thinking-out-loud and looking for feedback. I thought about putting this in the carry gear section, but I really think it's general in nature and about the P64. I've recently purchased 3 P64's from I.O....

CZ 82 grips

Thanks Norm.

They are (the Cz's) nearly as popular as the P64... I hope he starts making them... I like the looks of his multicolor grips.

WELCOME THREAD AND MEM, INFO

Hello from Iowa. I've been a member for a few weeks, and just recently acquired my P64s. 3 of them! I got them from I.O.INC. And am pleased with the condition... though only one may be trully "unissued" as only one came with a new holster. The other two had used holsters and one of them ca...

The Buy Sell Trade board

Dick, I've been lurking here for a little bit and I understand what you are trying to do... Many BBsoftware programs allow an expiration date... "Posts in this section will expire in 30 days" (you can set the time limit 7-10-14, whatever) I don't know if that is offered through ProBoards o...
